Figure 5:

Relationship between mass-specific standard metabolic rate (sSMR; in millilitres of oxygen per minute per kilogram) and water temperature (WT; in degrees Celsius) for four individual fur seals. (A) Female Australian fur seal (sSMR = 1.12 + 0.21 × WT, logLik = −17.42, R² = 0.140, P = 0.207, n = 13). (B) Male Australian fur seal (sSMR = −9.70 + 0.59 × WT, logLik = −15.63, R² = 0.683, P < 0.001, n = 16). (C) Male New Zealand fur seal (sSMR = −5.99 + 0.45 × WT, logLik = −18.36, R² = 0.404, P = 0.011, n = 15). (D) Male New Zealand fur seal (sSMR = 1.95 + 0.29 × WT, logLik = −14.70, R² = 0.587, P = 0.003, n = 12).
