Knowledge graph centered on Telemetric heart rate monitoring in free-ranging marmots (Sciuridae) with 12 nodes and 36 connections. Top connected: Marmota flaviventris, Marmota monax, Buteo jamaicensis, red-tailed hawk, vigilance behavior.
Surgical implantation of radio transmitters in the abdominal cavity with electrodes positioned on either side of the heart to monitor heart rate via radio telemetry during natural behaviors. Heart rate data is collected remotely and converted from interpulse intervals to beats per minute.
Synthesized from method descriptions across 1 paper using this protocol.
Steps below were extracted from the paper that introduces this protocol — Heart rates of free-ranging yellow-bellied marmots (2003), International Network on Marmots. Implementations in other papers (listed below) may differ.
