If loading an additional 441 ml of respiratory air upon diving were to explain such an extension in dive duration, diving metabolic rate of Kerguelen shags would have to be = 10.6 ml O2.min−1.kg−1.
Eventually, although increasing respiratory O2 volume when diving deeper seems to have a limited effect on overall aerobic dive duration (see above), its importance should not be entirely discarded, particularly as it may pay off the inevitable increase in the cost of transport of the descent phase associated to greater respiratory air loads in deep dives.
In contrast, fractal analysis consistently identified significant differences in the complexity of dive duration patterns as a function of environment and exposure to disturbance.
Individual dive duration and foraging time were significantly reduced in all cost-increased dives, comparable to the effects of reduced prey encounter rate.
The data from medical records included age, sex, maximal depth, dive duration, reported and presenting symptoms, given therapy, decompression stops during ascend, time from surfacing to recompression and treatment outcome.
The pair noted that the maximum dive duration for a wild polar bear is unknown, and that opportunities to document such episodes are rare. .

These species encompass a range of marine habitats (highly pelagic vs coastal), diving behaviors (mean dive durations 2 21 min) and range of latitudes (equator to temperate).
These species cover a range of marine habitats (highly pelagic vs coastal), diving behaviors (mean dive durations 2 21 min) and range of latitudes (equator to temperate) and a wide range of locations across the globe (South Africa, Eastern North Pacific Ocean, Southern California Bight, southeast Australia and the Galapagos Islands).
No significant differences were found in dive durations measured in the absence of boats and when boats were present.
This study investigates the level of stress experienced by bottlenose dolphins from the complexity of their temporal patterns of dive durations recorded along a gradient of environment types defined as a function of the intensity of anthropogenically-driven pollution and disturbances, including urban development and recreational boating.
Dive durations were opportunistically recorded from land-based stations scattered across South Australian coastal waters both in the absence of boat traffic, and the potential for boat-related disturbance was investigated when a motorized vessel was within 100 m from a traveling individual to infer the effect of indirect exposure to boat disturbance.
