The lateral habenula contributes to regulation of body temperature

open access: yesiScience
Summary: The lateral habenula (LHb) is implicated in the regulation of numerous physiological functions, particularly those associated with thermoregulation.

Body orientation for thermoregulation and daily activity cycle of Mabuya macrorhyncha (Squamata: Scincidae)

open access: yesZoologia (Curitiba), 2018
We investigated the daily activity and thermoregulatory body orientation of Mabuya macrorhyncha (Hoge, 1947), a lizard species that occurs in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest.

Core Body Temperature Regulation and Locomotor Activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
poster abstractMethamphetamine (Meth) enhances locomotor activity, and is known to cause life-threatening hyperthermia. There has been much debate about whether the locomotion plays a major role in hyperthermia caused by Meth or other stimulants.

Short-term heat acclimation is effective and may be enhanced rather than impaired by dehydration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Most heat acclimation data are from regimes longer than 1 week, and acclimation advice is to prevent dehydration. Objectives: We hypothesized that (i) short-term (5-day) heat acclimation would substantially improve physiological strain and exercise ...

Body temperatures of Manis pentadactyla and Manis javanica

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, 2021
Body temperature is an important parameter for assessing animal health and physiological function. An iButton thermometer was used to measure the body temperatures of three Chinese pangolins (Manis pentadacyla) and three Sunda pangolins (M.

Experimental evidence that hyperthermia limits offspring provisioning in a temperate-breeding bird [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2020
In many vertebrates, parental care can require long bouts of daily exercise that can span several weeks. Exercise, especially in the heat, raises body temperature, and can lead to hyperthermia.

Acceleration insensitive fluid expansion compensator [PDF]

open access: yes, 1968
Device compensates for temperature and acceleration effects on a fluid-floated mass in a sealed container of a high performance angular or acceleration sensing instrument. It is used in precision instruments for regulation of gases or liquids in a moving

Challenges of measuring body temperatures of free-ranging birds and mammals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The thermal physiology of most birds and mammals is characterised by considerable spatial and temporal variation in body temperature. Body temperature is, therefore, a key parameter in physiological, behavioural and ecological research.

EFFECTS OF COLD ON BODY TEMPERATURE REGULATION OF WILD TURKEYS

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2000
: In northern latitudes, many bird species conserve energy during cold periods by decreasing their resting phase body temperature (Tb). We evaluated the influence of cold stress on Tb regulation of wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) during ...

Local temperature-sensitive mechanisms are important mediators of limb tissue hyperemia in the heat-stressed human at rest and during small muscle mass exercise. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Limb tissue and systemic blood flow increases with heat stress, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we tested the hypothesis that heat stress-induced increases in limb tissue perfusion are primarily mediated by local temperature-
