Data for: Hypometabolism in avian thermoregulation in the heat

Body temperatures and resting metabolic rates collated from the literature to test the hypothesis that active metabolic suppression is widespread among birds during avian thermoregulation in the heat.本数据集收录了从已发表文献中整理得到的体温与静息代谢率数据，用于验证“鸟类在高温环境下进行体温调节时，主动代谢抑制现象广泛存在”这一科学假说。
