Endocrinological cycles of free-living animals can be studied without the stress caused by capture. Hence, this noninvasive technique may be helpful in a wide range of research fields relating to physiology, behavioral ecology, ethnology, and wildlife conservation. \u003cbr\u003e   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe reports presented in the second part of the volume expand the general understanding of migration over long distances. Three key issues in the search for adaptive syndromes are addressed: acquisition and use of endogenous resources, circadian rhythms, and adaptations in metabolism.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe papers included in this volume will provide access to techniques and methods that will result in more reliable studies and more useful data. The results of these two meetings are timely and important because environments are rapidly changing and we need the means to study the impact of these changes on the physiology of animals who are responding to these changes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eNOTE:\u003c\/b\u003e Annals volumes are available for sale as individual books or as a journal.
