From: Female mice exhibit less overall variance, with a higher proportion of structured variance, than males at multiple timescales of continuous body temperature and locomotive activity records

Core body temperature A, B and locomotor activity (C, D), for males (red) and females (blue), presented as mean ± SD. Some analyses use a data set in which females are aligned by days of estrous (“E”s; A, C), and some use a data set in which each individual (males and females) has been delayed 1 day relative to the previous individual in its group (B, D), thereby maximally de-aligning females to insure that interindividual structure is not conferred to the female group by way of predictable, 4-day ovulatory cycles
