Respiration in neonate sea turtles [PDF]
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2007 The pattern and control of respiration is virtually unknown in hatchling sea turtles. Using incubator-raised turtles, we measured oxygen consumption, frequency, tidal volume, and minute volume for leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea) and olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) turtle hatchlings for the first six days after pipping.
