Pinniped Energetics

Pinniped Energetics is an academic construct that characterizes the quantification and analysis of energy acquisition, expenditure, and allocation in pinnipeds, distinguishing it within the broader field of marine mammal physiological ecology by its focus on the metabolic demands and efficiency of aquatic locomotion, thermoregulation, foraging, and reproduction specific to seals, sea lions, and walruses.
