Abstract Activity – rest (circadian) rhythms were studied in two species of Arctic mammals living in Arctic continuous daylight with all human-induced regular environmental cues (zeitgebers) removed.

Would local animals maintained under natural continuous daylight demonstrate the Aschoff effect described in previously published laboratory… Expand
