Survival Time in Cold Water
Generally, a search usually isn’t commenced until a boat is overdue for more than 24hours. Fortunately for the passengers and crew of the fishing boat “COUGAR”, which sunk 13°C (56°F) water, 35 miles off the coast of Oregon in September 1998, the absence of a normally punctilious individual, Capt Liddell, from a meeting raised the alarm and triggered the search. He, along with five others, was ...
متن کاملCytological Responses of Brown Fat Tissue in Cold-exposed Rats
In young adult laboratory rats exposed to cold (6 degrees C) the brown adipose tissue undergoes time-dependent increases in cellularity, vascular supply, and total mass. These changes are largely complete after 16 days in the cold and concurrent generally with the development of a thermoregulatory state not greatly dependent upon shivering. Histologically the brown fat changes from a tissue hav...
متن کاملCold water survival suits for aircrew.
Laboratory and sea trials were used to compare the effectiveness of three aircrew exposure garments--the British Mark 10, the United States CWU 21/P, and the Canadian U.VIC. Thermofloat jacket. The first two are waterproof coveralls, whereas the third is a neoprene-lined jacket designed on the basis of the "wet suit" concept. Rectal and skin temperatures, electrocardiograms and other variables ...
متن کاملCarbon balance and water relations of sorghum exposed to salt and water stress.
The daily (24 hour) changes in carbon balance, water loss, and leaf area of whole sorghum plants (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench, cv BTX616) were measured under controlled environment conditions typical of warm, humid, sunny days. Plants were either (a) irrigated frequently with nutrient solution (osmotic potential -0.08 kilojoules per kilogram = -0.8 bar), (b) not irrigated for 15 days, (c) irrigat...
متن کاملFat chance for longevity.
The health benefits of specific fatty acids and physiological roles of fat metabolism are important subjects that are still poorly understood. In this issue of Genes & Development, O'Rourke and colleagues (pp. 429-440) uncovered a role for lipase-generated ω-6 fatty acids in promoting autophagy and, consequently, life span extension under both fed and fasting conditions. The impact of this find...
