Why does metabolism scale with temperature (2004, background): “Although the tradition of plotting resting metabolic rate as a function of the temperature at which the organism was actually living goes back to the seminal work of August Krogh (Ege & Krogh 1914; Krogh 1916), it is only relatively recently that this approach has been taken in between-species studi”
Consistent temperature dependence of respiration across ecosystems contrasting in thermal history (2012, background): “organisms originating from cold environments tend to exhibit elevated rates of metabolism (Krogh, 1916; Clarke, 1991; Addo-Bediako et al., 2002).”
Antarctic Marine Biodiversity: Adaptations, Environments and Responses to Change (2018, background): “Early in the last century, Krogh (1916) recognised that polar cold-blooded animals are active at low temperatures, but temperate ectotherms are not when cooled to similar temperatures.”
Oxygen consumption in four species of teleosts from Greenland: no evidence of metabolic cold adaptation (2004, methodology): “In the early 1900's, work by Ege and Krogh (1914) and Krogh (1916) suggested that cold water ectothermic”
