Energy efficiency of respiration in mature and newborn reindeer
Solberg, Simon Birger Byremo; Kjelstrup, Signe; Magnanelli, Elisa; Kizilova, Nataliya; Barroso, Iratxe Lorea Casado; Acquarone, Mario; Folkow, Lars (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) have evolved elaborate nasal turbinate structures that are perfused via a complex vascular network. These are subject to thermoregulatory control, shifting between heat conservation and ... -
The Nasal Geometry of the Reindeer Gives Energy-Efficient Respiration
Magnanelli, Elisa; Wilhelmsen, Øivind; Acquarone, Mario; Folkow, Lars; Kjelstrup, Signe (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Reindeer in the arctic region live under very harsh conditions and may face temperatures below 233 K. Therefore, efficient conservation of body heat and water is important for their survival. Alongside their insulating ...
