Metabolic adjustments in breeding female kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) include changes in kidney metabolic intensity
International audience Black-legged kittiwakes (BLKIs) reduce selfmaintenance cost through reductions in mass-speciWc basal metabolic rate (BMR), body mass and the size of visceral organs during the chick-rearing period. In the present study, we measured kidney in vitro oxygen consumption and plasma...

International audience Black-legged kittiwakes (BLKIs) reduce selfmaintenance cost through reductions in mass-speciWc basal metabolic rate (BMR), body mass and the size of visceral organs during the chick-rearing period.
