Thermoregulation in mice, rats and humans: An insight into the evolution of human hairlessness [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The thermoregulation system in animals removes body heat in hot temperatures and retains body heat in cold temperatures. The better the animal removes heat, the worse the animal retains heat and visa versa. It is the balance between these two conflicting goals that determines the mammal's size, heart rate and amount of hair. The rat's loss of tail hair

Behavioral thermoregulation by reptile embryos promotes hatching success and synchronization
Communications Biology, 2023 Reptile embryos can move inside eggs to seek optimal thermal conditions, falsifying the traditional assumption that embryos are simply passive occupants within their eggs.

The circadian system alters thermoregulation depending on the time of day and feeding condition [PDF]
, 2009 The circadian rhythm of body temperature (Tb) is a well-known phenomenon. However, it is unknown how the circadian system affects thermoregulation. Food deprivation in mice induces a greater reduction of Tb particularly in the light phase.

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

Collective thermoregulation in bee clusters [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Swarming is an essential part of honeybee behaviour, wherein thousands of bees cling onto each other to form a dense cluster that may be exposed to the environment for several days. This cluster has the ability to maintain its core temperature actively without a central controller, and raises the question of how this is achieved.

Behavioral thermoregulation in the American lobster Homarus americanus [PDF]
, 1995 It is generally accepted that water temperature has a strong influence on the behavior of the American lobster Homarus americanus. However, there is surprisingly little behavioral evidence to support this view. To haracterize

Thermoregulation During Spaceflight [PDF]
The purpose of this flight proposal is to investigate human thermoregulatory parameters during exercise in microgravity. The hypothesis to be tested is that microgravity-adopted astronauts will exhibit accentuated increases in their core temperature ...
