The research was conducted to study the effect of heat stress on blood parameters in indigenous sheep. Nine sheep were divided into three groups which were almost similar in age, sex and weight. Three groups were divided as zero hour (T0), four hours (T4) and eight hours (T8) heat exposure to direct sunlight. During experimental period temperature–humidity index (THI) value was calculated as 27...

Size, density and distribution of the brown garden snail (Cantareus aspersus) were observed relative to cover at a coastal reserve on the North Island, New Zealand. Cover variables depended on vegetation height and available debris (rubbish, wood, cow dung). Air temperature, ground temperature, and relative humidity were recorded continuously during the field survey for the various cover types....

The paper proposes a multiparameter sensor platform capable of measuring the rate and thermal stress state which the user (in particular a firefighter) is subject to. For that, three wearable sensors (temperature, humidity and heart rate) send the information via Zigbee low energy wireless protocol, to a remote device (smartphone, wrist watch or PDA) monitoring the status of the worker. Additio...

The present study was conducted to determine the effect of increasing temperature humidity index (THI) on lactating Murrah buffalo. six buffaloes which were offered same basal diet and blocked by days in milk, milk yield parity. during May, June July with average THI 79.88, 80.57 85.36, respectively. Milk recorded twice a day at 06:00 18:00 h physiological parameters blood sampled 30th each mon...
