Foraging patch selection in winter: a balance between predation risk and thermoregulation benefit. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
In winter, foraging activity is intended to optimize food search while minimizing both thermoregulation costs and predation risk. Here we quantify the relative importance of thermoregulation and predation in foraging patch selection of woodland birds ...

A Theory of Social Thermoregulation in Human Primates

Frontiers in Psychology, 2015
Beyond breathing, the regulation of body temperature—thermoregulation—is one of the most pressing concerns for many animals. A dysregulated body temperature has dire consequences for survival and development.

REM Sleep and Endothermy: Potential Sites and Mechanism of a Reciprocal Interference

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
Numerous data show a reciprocal interaction between REM sleep and thermoregulation. During REM sleep, the function of thermoregulation appears to be impaired; from the other hand, the tonic activation of thermogenesis, such as during cold exposure ...

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

Application of Monodisperse Encapsulated Phase Change Materials in Building Thermal Energy Storage

Frontiers in Energy Research, 2022
Monodisperse encapsulated phase change materials (PCMs) are fabricated via microfluidic technology. To evaluate the thermoregulation ability of PCM capsules applied in building thermal energy storage, a gypsum model house with PCM capsules embedded is ...

CURRENT STUDIES IN THERMOREGULATION

Pensar en Movimiento, 2014
The aim of this review is to present recent advances in the understanding of the physiological mechanisms of thermoregulation in mammals, which can be divided into two types including reflex (or autonomic) and behavioral thermoregulation.

The use of cork in the thermoregulation of the hive: an innovation attempt to enhance non-wood products and beekeeping in Mediterranean forests

Annals of Silvicultural Research, 2020
Hive thermoregulation is fundamental for the normal development of bee colonies and, consequently, hive productivity and honey bee health. External conditions mainly affect the walls of the hive.

Accuracy of the EXERGEN TAT-5000 Temporal Scanner in Monitoring Core Body Temperature During and After Physical Exercise in a Hot Environment

Applied Sciences
This study assessed the accuracy of the EXERGEN TAT-5000 temporal scanner (TEXERGEN) (EXERGEN, Watertown, MA, USA) for estimating core body temperature (TCORE) during rest, progressive cycling exercise, and post-exercise recovery in a hot environment ...

Brood thermoregulation effectiveness is positively linked to the amount of brood but not to the number of bees in honeybee colonies

Peer Community Journal, 2023
To ensure the optimal development of brood, a honeybee colony needs to regulate its temperature within a certain range of values (thermoregulation), regardless of environmental changes in biotic and abiotic factors.
