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