    Numbats and aardwolves—how low is low? A re-affirmation of the need for statistical rigour in evaluating regression predictions

    Many comparative physiological studies aim to determine if a particular species differs from a prediction based on a linear allometric regression for other species. However, the judgment as to whether the spec...

    Effect of torpor on the water economy of an arid-zone marsupial, the stripe-faced dunnart (Sminthopsis macroura)

    Metabolic rate and evaporative water loss (EWL) were measured for a small, arid-zone marsupial, the stripe-faced dunnart (Sminthopsis macroura), when normothermic and torpid. Metabolic rate increased linearly wit...

    Ventilatory physiology of the numbat (Myrmecobius fasciatus)

    This study examines the ventilatory physiology of the numbat (Myrmecobius fasciatus), a small to medium-sized (550 g) termitivorous marsupial. Ventilatory parameters at thermoneutrality reflect the slightly low (...

    Field metabolic rate and water turnover of the numbat (Myrmecobius fasciatus)

    The numbat (Myrmecobius fasciatus) is a diurnal and exclusively termitivorous marsupial. This study examines interrelationships between diet, metabolic rate and water turnover for wild, free-living numbats. The n...

    An Automated System for the Measurement of the Response of Cerebral Blood Volume and Cerebral Blood Flow to Changes in Arterial Carbon Dioxide Tension Using Near Infrared Spectroscopy

    Since it was first described by Jobsis in 1977, near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has become widely used as a non invasive technique for monitoring the blood and tissue oxygenation of intact organs and to date...
