...This is likely due to evaporative cooling (Lolavar & Wyneken 2017, 2020); further studies will allow us to clarify the mechanism behind these observations, as this is a major avenue for future research (Sifuentes-Romero et al. 2018)....

...In reptiles, the thermal environment can influence embryonic growth rate (Packard et al., 1977; Deeming and Ferguson, 1989; Georges et al., 2005; Ligon and Lovern, 2012) and therefore, incubation duration (Yntema, 1978; Lolavar and Wyneken, 2015)....
