Oxidative Stress Is a Potential Cost of Synchronous Nesting in Olive Ridley Sea Turtles
Antioxidants, 2022 Olive ridley sea turtles, Lepidochelys olivacea, exhibit a polymorphic reproductive behavior, nesting solitarily or in mass aggregations termed “arribadas”, where thousands of individuals nest synchronously.

The metabolic costs of cognition
Trends in Cognitive SciencesCognition and behaviour are emergent properties of brain systems that seek to maximise complex and adaptive behaviour while minimising energy utilization. Different species reconcile this trade-off in different ways but in humans the outcome is biased towards complex behaviours and hence relatively high energy use.

Critical Neural Networks Minimize Metabolic Cost
Physics, 2021 Brain dynamics show a rich spatiotemporal behavior whose stability is neither ordered nor chaotic, indicating that neural networks operate at intermediate stability regimes including critical dynamics represented by a negative power-law distribution of ...

Energy cost differences between marathon runners and soccer players: Constant versus shuttle running
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Purpose: In the last decades, the energy cost assessment provided new insight on shuttle or constant running as training modalities. No study, though, quantified the benefit of constant/shuttle running in soccer-players and runners. Therefore, the aim of

Within and between-day reliability of energetic cost measures during treadmill walking
Cogent Engineering, 2016 The efficacy of assistive devices used during walking is often measured as a reduction in metabolic cost. Metabolic cost is typically assessed within a day or on multiple days, yet the benefit of performing within-day vs.
