Floral shape and color impact heat accumulation and thermal stability of the floral microenvironment in a subalpine meadow

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The floral thermal microenvironment impacts plant reproduction through its effects on gametophyte performance and plant–pollinator interactions. Color and shape are axes of floral variation that may mediate floral temperature because they affect the absorption and reflection of solar radiation, but their interactive effects are unclear.

Broad seasonal changes in thermoregulation of Podarcis lilfordi (Squamata, Lacertidae) at Binicodrell islet (Menorca, Spain) [PDF]

open access: yesHerpetozoa, 2019
Most lizards maintain quite constant body temperatures by behavioural means. Seasonal variations of environmental factors, such as temperature, sunlight exposure and wind intensity, influence lizard thermoregulatory abilities.

Effects of Rodent Thermoregulation on Animal Models in the Research Environment.

open access: yesComparative medicine, 2018
To best promote animal wellbeing and the efficacy of biomedical models, scientific, husbandry, and veterinary professionals must consider the mechanisms, influences, and outcomes of rodent thermoregulation in contemporary research environments.

Defining Sex‐ and Age‐Specific Initial Stay Times for Continuous Moderate‐Intensity Work in Hot Environments Before Heat‐Mitigation Controls Are Implemented – Part A

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Industry guidelines recommend work‐rest allocations to limit increases in core temperature (Tcore; > 38.0°C or > Δ1.0°C above resting) during work in the heat. However, the initial duration of permissible work before implementing these allocations is not specified (initial stay time [IST]) and individual factors such as sex and age ...

Neonatal thermoregulation

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 1991
The human being is a homeotherm. Homeothermy is a result of thermoregulation which includes many physiological processes. Thermoregulation maintains an equilibrium between heat production (thermogenesis) and heat loss (thermolysis).

Thermography and thermoregulation of the face [PDF]

open access: yesHead & Face Medicine, 2007
Although clinical diagnosis of thermoregulation is gaining in importance there is no consistent evidence on the value of thermography of the facial region. In particular there are no reference values established with standardised methods.Skin temperatures were measured in the facial area at 32 fixed measuring sites in 26 health subjects (7-72 years ...

Creatine and glycerol hyperhydration in trained subjects prior to exercise in the heat. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The authors examined the effects of combined creatine (Cr) and glycerol (Gly) supplementation on responses to exercise in the heat. Subjects (N = 24) were matched for body mass and assigned to either a Cr or placebo (Pl) group. Twice daily during two 7-d

Defining Sex‐ and Age‐Specific Initial Stay Times for Continuous Heavy‐Intensity Work in Hot Environments Before Heat‐Mitigation Controls Are Implemented—Part B

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Industry guidelines recommend work‐rest schedules to prevent unsafe core temperature elevations (> 38.0°C or > Δ1.0°C above baseline resting) in an “average” worker exposed to occupational heat stress. While permissible initial work durations (initial stay times [IST]) before implementing rest schedules have been suggested, existing ...
