Blubber is a specialized subcutaneous layer of fat found only in marine mammals and is different from other types of adipose tissue in that it is anatomically and biochemically adapted to serve as an efficient and adjustable thermal insulator. Blubber also affects buoyancy and functions as a body streamliner and elastic spring for efficient hydrodynamic locomotion.
