Thermal Strain During Open-Water Swimming Competition in Warm Water Environments
Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 Open-water swim racing in warm water is associated with significant physiological strain. However, existing international policy that governs safe participation during competition relies only on a fixed water temperature threshold for event cancellation ...

Thermal variation, thermal extremes and the physiological performance of individuals [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2015 ABSTRACTIn this review we consider how small-scale temporal and spatial variation in body temperature, and biochemical/physiological variation among individuals, affect the prediction of organisms' performance in nature. For ‘normal’ body temperatures – benign temperatures near the species' mean – thermal biology traditionally uses performance curves ...

Natural selection on thermal performance in a novel thermal environment [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014 Significance Tropical ectotherms are considered especially vulnerable to climate change because they have narrow thermal tolerance ranges, such that even small increases in environmental temperature are likely to be detrimental. Although evolutionary adaptation may prevent extinction, it is unclear whether climate change generates ...

Simulation and Visualization of Thermal Metaphor in a Virtual Environment for Thermal Building Assessment [PDF]
, 2014 La référence est présente sur HAL mais est incomplète (il manque les co-auteurs et le fichier pdf).The current application of the design process through energy efficiency in virtual reality (VR) systems is limited mostly to building performance ...
