Comparative physiology

the proposal that the sustained energy budget of endotherms is capped by their capacity to shed body heat rather than by food intake.

In comparative physiology, heat dissipation limit theory refers to the proposal that the sustained energy budget of endotherms is capped by their capacity to shed body heat rather than by food intake. This meaning comes from Speakman (2010) in Journal of Animal Ecology.[1]
