“…Modelling work (Spotila et al 1973;Spotila 1980;O'Connor and Dodson 1999) indicates clearly that they would have had a warm body through thermal inertia, and this has been confirmed by recent isotopic analysis (Eagle et al 2011). The sauropod lifestyle could thus be viewed as quite distinct from both true endothermy and the ectotherm physiology of living reptiles because their enormous size results in a high and stable body temperature.…”

“…Modelling of heat flow has shown clearly that larger dinosaurs would have maintained stable, and often high, temperatures from thermal inertia alone (Spotila et al 1973;Spotila 1980;O'Connor and Dodson 1999;Seebacher 2003). Isotopic data have confirmed a relatively uniform body temperature in many larger dinosaurs (Barrick et al 1996(Barrick et al , 1997 but thermal inertia means that it is not necessary to hypothesise an elevated metabolism to explain these data (though neither is an elevated metabolism ruled out).…”

“…Also, in most months larger alligators had relatively high daily minimum temperatures and/or less intense circadian thermal cycles (Table 5). Surface/volume considerations suggest such phenomena, and many authors discuss the relationship between crocodilian size and thermoregulation (Spotila et al, 1973;Smith, 1975Smith, , 1976Grigg, 1977;Johnson et al, 1978;Smith and Adams, 1978;Bartholomew, 1982;Grigg et al, 1998;Grigg et al, 1999). However, we were unable to investigate the social dimensions of thermoregulation, and if larger alligators have more choice of thermal microhabitats, then the effect of size on T b 's may be socially mediated (Seebacher and Grigg, 1997).…”
