Energetics of swimming of a sea turtle
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1976ABSTRACT Young (mean mass 735 g) green turtles (Chelonia my das) were able to swim in a water channel at sustained speeds between 0·14 and 0·35 m.s−1. Oxygen consumption at rest was 0·07kg−1. h−1; at maximum swimming speed oxygen consumption was 3–4 times greater than at rest for a given individual.
