“…Dale Erskine provided a great impetus to this part of our project by formulating a steady state energy budget model for the bass and demonstrating that most heat transfer occurred directly through the body wall and not via the gills (Erskine 1976, Erskine andSpotila 1977). These findings provided a basis for time dependent modeling.…”

Significant progress has been made in determining the mechanisms by which large ectotherms adjust to thermal stress in their natural environment. The effect of mouth gaping on head temperatures and the role of radiation, conduction and convection on body temperatures of alligators have been determined. The utility of energy budget modeling as a method for studying the thermoregulatory mechanisms of animals has been demonstrated. Steady state and time dependent models of body temperature have been tested. Convection coefficients and evaporative water loss rates have been measured for the turtle, Chysemys scripta. Climate space•diagrams have been formulated and are being tested. Behavioral thermoregulation of turtles has been studied in PAR pond on the Savannah River Plant, Aiken, S. C. Steady state energy budget equations have been computed for largemouth bass. Experimental heat transfer coefficients indicate that most heat transfer is through the body wall and not via the gills. A time dependent model is being tested. It predicts the body temperature of a fish in a heterothermal environment. Theoretical calculations have been made of the effects of body size, color and metabolism on the temperature regulation of ectotherms. CTM tests are useful indicators of stress in aquatic organisms. Six articles have been published, 3 are in press, 2 in revision, 2 in review and 6 in preparation. Six masters theses have been completed. Nine papers have been delivered at national :nee t ings and 5 more are scheduled for presentation this summer.
