Abstract
âºSea stars remained mainly in the low intertidal or heat-protected areas at low tide. âºBody temperature of sea stars increased along the vertical intertidal gradient. âºOxygen consumption increased with temperature in both air and water. âºAquatic oxygen consumption was about 2 à higher than aerial oxygen consumption. âºWater temperature affected bioenergetics more than microhabitat choice.
