Description
Results of the thermal biology investigations of the snake eyed lizard Ophisops elegans. Location: Beytepe Campus, Ankara, Turkey Field recorded thermal data Columns: Tb: Body temperature of lizards measured from the cloak with Fluke 54/II thermometer with a t type thermocouple. SVL: Snout vent length (mm) measured with a digital caliper Sol: Solar radiation (w/m2) measured with an apogee mp2 pyranometer Subst: Type of substrate where the lizard is captured. Mass: Body mass (g) of lizards measured with a scale Wind: Wind speed (m/s) measured with an UNI-T anemometer thermometer. Ts: Substrate temperature (celsius) measured with the same Fluke 54/II thermometer with a t type thermocouple. Ta: Air temperature measured measured from the location at 1.5m height measured with an UNI-T anemometer thermometer. Temperature preference data: Columns Mass Start: Mass of the lizard at the start of experiment SVL: Snout vent length (mm) measured with a digital caliper Sex: Sex of the measured lizard D1 - D8: Measured temperature (in celsius) of the lizard in the gradient with 15 minute intervals Mass Finish: Mass of the lizard at the end of the gradient experiment datalogger folder holds the field recorded microclimate temperature data from 5 data loggers
