Diving Beyond the Limits

Patrick J. Butler

School of Biosciences, The University of Birmingham, Birmingham B15 2TT, United Kingdom
Some free-ranging birds and mammals dive for periods that substantially exceed those for which their usable O2 stores are estimated to last. The mechanisms that extend the duration of aerobic diving include marked reductions in blood flow (and hence O2 delivery) to certain organs and tissues, passive gliding and, most probably, regional hypothermia.
