No references found | org/ [Online 10 June 2009] ********** Exposure to extreme heat can overwhelm a person's ability to thermoregulate, resulting in physiologic heat stress, which sometimes leads to death (Luber et al. And the reason behind such evolution, according to researchers could be that they had to balance pressures to adapt to the hot climate in equatorial Africa--and tall, slender-hipped humans thermoregulate in the heat better than short, stocky humans (whose physiology retains heat better in the frigid latitudes). Specifically, we sought to address two questions about over-wintering Cottonmouths at our study site: 1) Do Cottonmouths (a) conform to dominant environmental temperatures during the winter, (b) actively thermoregulate or (c) use hibernacula with thermal properties that differ from the dominant environmental media (air, water, soil)? |
