Colony and individual life-history responses to temperature in a social insect pollinator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Pollinating insects are of major ecological and commercial importance, yet they may be facing ecological disruption from a changing climate. Despite this threat, few studies have investigated the life-history responses of pollinators to experimentally ...

Sociality Affects REM Sleep Episode Duration Under Controlled Laboratory Conditions in the Rock Hyrax, Procavia capensis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The rock hyrax, Procavia capensis, is a highly social, diurnal mammal. In the current study several physiologically measurable parameters of sleep, as well as the accompanying behavior, were recorded continuously from five rock hyraxes, for 72 h under ...

Temperature exposure and possible thermoregulation strategies in the Titicaca water frog Telmatobius culeus, a fully aquatic frog of the High Andes

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2018
Temperature has an important effect on amphibians, influencing virtually all physiological systems. Thermoregulation is used to manage unfavourable thermal conditions, but has been poorly studied in aquatic amphibians, and no information is available for

Why Small Is Beautiful: Wing Colour Is Free from Thermoregulatory Constraint in the Small Lycaenid Butterfly, Polyommatus icarus.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
We examined the roles of wing melanisation, weight, and basking posture in thermoregulation in Polyommatus Icarus, a phenotypically variable and protandrous member of the diverse Polyommatinae (Lycaenidae).

The role of blood circulatory system in thermal regulation of animals explained by entropy production analysis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
A novel model of thermal regulation of homoeothermic animals has been implemented. The model is based on a non-equilibrium thermodynamic approach which introduces entropy balance and the rate of entropy generation as a formulation of The Second Law. The model explains linear correlation between an animals skin and environment temperatures using the ...

Effect of local hand cooling on thermoregulation and rhythm of cardiogram of students from hot climate

open access: yesRUDN Journal of Medicine, 2014
The article presents data on changes in thermoregulation and heart rate variability due to local cooling of the hand from hot climate zone natives. Shown that a significant number of peripheral vascular spasms in response to local cooling do not occur ...
