Resumo

Review physiological field research from 1881, citing the scientists and their studies. At the Naval Arctic Research Lab at Barrow there have been projects on blood analysis, nutritional data, energy and fat metabolism, temperature regulation, animal navigation, eye physiology, reproductive physiology of arctic and temperate zone animals, and measurement of time by animals. Techniques, such as the insertion of radio-capsules in bears and foxes, are illustrated and future research needs for data on man and animals discussed.
