Coping with thermal challenges: physiological adaptations to environmental temperatures.
Glenn J. Tattersall,Brent J. Sinclair,Philip C. Withers,Peter A. Fields,Frank Seebacher,Christine Cooper,Shane K. Maloney +6 more
TL;DR: Physiological responses to cold and warmth differ depending on whether animals maintain elevated body temperatures or exhibit minimal internal heat production, whereas ectothermic adaptations to temperature are best exemplified by the numerous mechanisms that allow for the tolerance or avoidance of ice crystal formation at temperatures below 0°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiological responses of Bos taurus and Bos indicus cattle to prolonged, continuous heat and humidity
TL;DR: The results suggest that Bos taurus cattle experience significant physiological changes during exposure to prolonged and continuous high heat and humidity, with alterations persisting for some days after the heat-stress conditions subside.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of subjective estimates of sleep with objective polysomnographic data in healthy men and women
TL;DR: The young men and women in this study, who were free of medication or sleep complaints, perceived their sleep inaccurately when compared to objective polysomnographic recordings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of sheep body condition score in relation to production characteristics
TL;DR: It is proposed that while the relationship between body condition and production traits is positive, it is unlikely to be linear and what a suitable body condition score profile might be for a ewe over the entire breeding cycle is outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptive heterothermy and selective brain cooling in arid-zone mammals.
Duncan Mitchell,Shane K. Maloney,Shane K. Maloney,Claus Jessen,Helen P. Laburn,Peter R. Kamerman,Graham Mitchell,Andrea Fuller +7 more
TL;DR: None of the rete ungulates seems to employ selective brain cooling to prevent the brain overheating during exertional hyperthermia, so it is believed that they use it at rest, under moderate heat load, in order to switch body heat loss from evaporative to non-evaporative routes.
