Evidence

Similarities between 79° and 70°, eg

Feeding activity continuous / continues for 24 hours during polar day (summer months)
feeding activity more intense in summer than in winter
during times with a definite twilight period, (spring and autumn) feeding activity is

Predominantly diurnal

during times with a definite twilight period, (spring and autumn) feeding activity is crepuscular (feeds at dawn and dusk).

Differences between temperatures:

At 79°

arrhythmic in summer and winter
had less night-time feeding activity in spring and autumn
less intense feeding in summer

At 70°,

arrhythmic during summer only
during the winter showed diurnal patterns / crepuscular activity (feeds at dawn and dusk)
had more night-time feeding activity in spring and autumn
more intense feeding in summer
