The scaling of diving time budgets : insights from an optimality approach
No full textThe authors acknowledge the Natural Environment Research Council for support with this work (grant NER/A/S/2003/00616).Simple scaling arguments suggest that, among air-breathing divers, dive duration should scale approximately with mass to the one-third power. Recent phylogenetic analyses appear to confirm this. The same analyses showed that duration of time spent at the surface between dives has scaling very similar to that of dive duration, with the result that the ratio of dive duration to surface pause duration is approximately mass invariant. This finding runs counter to other arguments found in the diving literature that suggest that surface pause duration should scale more positively with mass, leading to a negative scaling of the dive-pause ratio. We use a published model of optimal time allocation in the dive cycle to show that optimal decisions can predict approximate mass invariance in the dive-pause ratio, especially if metabolism scales approximately with mass to the two-thirds power (as indicated by some recent analyses) and oxygen uptake is assumed to have evolved to supply the body tissues at the required rate. However, emergent scaling rules are sensitive to input parameters, especially to the relationship between the scaling of metabolism and oxygen uptake rate at the surface. Our results illustrate the utility of an optimality approach for developing predictions and identifying key areas for empirical research on the allometry of diving behavior.Peer reviewe

Por uma abordagem tensiva do fait divers
No full textResumo: Neste artigo, propõe-se uma abordagem baseada na Semiótica tensiva para o fait divers. A expressão, que advém da imprensa francesa do século XIX, reporta-se a acontecimentos inusitados, fortemente marcados por um caráter emocional. A primeira abordagem estrutural do fait divers se deve a Barthes. Diferentemente desse autor, no entanto, e com base nas ideias de Zilberberg sobre a noção de tensividade, apresenta-se um modelo que concebe as categorias duração e memória como constitutivas desse tipo de relato. Ademais, apresenta-se uma tipologia tensiva, a partir da qual pode-se classificar o fait divers quanto à intensidade e à extensidade.Palavras-chave: Semiótica francesa; tensividade; fait divers.Abstract: In this study, we propose an approach based on tensive semiotics to fait divers (feature story). The term, which comes from the French press of the nineteenth century, refers to unusual events, strongly marked by an emotional character. The first structural approach to fait divers relates to Barthes. In contrast to this author, however, and based on Zilberberg’s ideas about the concept of tensivity, we present a model that conceives the categories duration and memory as constituting such kind of report. In addition, we present a tensive typology, from which one can classify fait divers regarding intensity and extent.Keywords: French Semiotics; Tensivity; Fait Divers
