Figure 6:

Relationship between mass-specific standard metabolic rate (sSMR; in millilitres of oxygen per minute per kilogram) and water temperature (WT; in degrees Celsius) for Australian sea lions. (A) Adult male (ASM1; sSMR = 9.79 − 0.16 × WT, logLik = −12.40, R² = 0.450, P = 0.017, n = 12). (B) Adult female (ASF4; sSMR = 9.26 − 0.12 × WT, logLik = −13.16, R² = 0.348, P = 0.034, n = 13). (C) Adult female (ASF2; sSMR = 12.67 − 0.20 × WT, logLik = −14.38, R² = 0.497, P = 0.011, n = 12). (D) Adult male (ASM2; sSMR = 7.96 − 0.12 × WT, logLik = −11.73, R² = 0.336, P = 0.038, n = 13).
