Animals, 2021 Simple Summary Animals adopt several strategies to regulate their body temperature by promoting heat loss or gain in hot and cold environments, respectively. This mechanism of heat loss or production is performed in thermal windows. A thermal window is a

Can newts cope with the heat? Disparate thermoregulatory strategies of two sympatric species in water. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Many ectotherms effectively reduce their exposure to low or high environmental temperatures using behavioral thermoregulation. In terrestrial ectotherms, thermoregulatory strategies range from accurate thermoregulation to thermoconformity according to ...

Hypothermia in newly born piglets: Mechanisms of thermoregulation and pathophysiology of death
Journal of Animal Behaviour and Biometeorology, 2021 Mortality in piglets during the perinatal period, especially the first days after birth, is frequently caused by non infectious conditions, such as hypoglucemia or low birth weight, which can be associated with hypothermia experienced at birth.

Day‐flying lepidoptera larvae have a poorer ability to thermoregulate than adults
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Changes to ambient temperatures under climate change may detrimentally impact small ectotherms that rely on their environment for thermoregulation; however, there is currently a limited understanding of insect larval thermoregulation.

Female (Under) Representation in Exercise Thermoregulation Research
Sports Medicine - Open, 2021 Background Despite an increasing rate of women participating in professional sports, emergency services, and military settings where they are exposed to exertional heat stress, our understanding of female thermoregulation and the detrimental effects of ...

BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making, 2023 Objectives Thermoregulation is important for all age groups, and in neonates, it is considered a crucial event to adapt to extrauterine life. Therefore, using systems that provide frequent reminders in different ways in the field of thermoregulation can ...

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 ...

Involvement of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis and its interaction with the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in the ontogeny of avian thermoregulation: a review [PDF]
, 2008 The emergence of thermoregulation in avian species is a complex matter in which neural as well as hormonal processes are involved. In a previous paper, the neural aspects of primary avian thermoregulation were discussed.

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.
