An mPOA-ARCAgRP pathway modulates cold-evoked eating behavior

Cell Reports, 2021
Summary: Enhanced appetite occurs as a means of behavioral thermoregulation at low temperature. Neural circuitry mediating this crosstalk between behavioral thermoregulation and energy homeostasis remains to be elucidated.

The Challenge of Global Warming in Water Buffalo Farming: Physiological and Behavioral Aspects and Strategies to Face Heat Stress

Animals, 2023
Water buffaloes have morphological and behavioral characteristics for efficient thermoregulation. However, their health, welfare, and productive performance can be affected by GW.

Thermal Drone Technology Used to Capture Thermoregulation in Wild Sumatran Elephants

Hayati Journal of Biosciences, 2023
Drone technology plays a critical role in supporting conservation efforts for endangered species, not only in terms of species monitoring within various landscapes, but also potentially when applied to behavioral studies to investigate interaction ...

Estrogenic modulation of female thermoregulatory behavior in a cold environment

Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2016
Thermoregulation is categorized as either autonomic (i.e., sweating, shivering) or behavioral (i.e., wearing clothes, usage of air conditioner) thermoregulation. Compared to autonomic thermoregulation, the neural pathway of behavioral thermoregulation in

Seasonal temperature acclimatization in a semi-fossorial mammal and the role of burrows as thermal refuges. [PDF]

, 2018
Small mammals in habitats with strong seasonal variation in the thermal environment often exhibit physiological and behavioral adaptations for coping with thermal extremes and reducing thermoregulatory costs.

Climate dependent heating efficiency in the common lizard

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Regulation of body temperature is crucial for optimizing physiological performance in ectotherms but imposes constraints in time and energy. Time and energy spent thermoregulating can be reduced through behavioral (e.g., basking adjustments) or ...
