▼ Endothermy refers to the ability of an individual to produce heat from internal sources, and allows animals to maintain a body temperature that is higher than their external environment. Although much is known about the benefits of endothermy, its origin is highly debated. Nonetheless, due to environmental variation, endotherms have to regulate their heat production (thermogenesis) in order to remain normothermic. An endotherms regulatory response seems to be body size dependent. Keeping warm during cold periods is energetically expensive, and for small mammals this is exacerbated by their high rate of heat loss due to high surface area to volume ratios. To compensate for the heat lost, small non-hibernating mammals must increase their level of thermogenesis. Much of our current understanding of thermogenic responses of small mammals is derived from laboratory acclimated animals, and studies on naturally acclimatized animals are uncommon. In addition, most studies on thermogenesis tend to focus on one level of animal organisation, such as subcellular, tissue or in-vivo, but seldom integrate these data. The aim of this study was to measure year-round variation in thermogenesis across all levels of organisation, using naturally acclimatized Rhabdomys pumilio individuals from the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University, Port Elizabeth. It was predicted that the level of thermogenesis would be significantly higher during winter relative to other seasons in order to cope with the low ambient temperatures (Tas) experienced during this season. Open flow respirometry was used to measure the animal's oxygen consumption, as a proxy for metabolism; the by product of which is heat production. The animal's basal metabolic rate (BMR), nonshivering thermogenesis (NST) capacity and summit metabolic rate (MSUM) were measured. A Western blot analysis was used to determine the expression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP 1) in the animals' brown adipose tissue (BAT), as well as determine its relative concentration. The cytochrome c oxidase (COX) activity of the animals' visceral organs and BAT was measured, as an indicator of the tissues' metabolic activity. COX activity was determined as the difference in the tissues' oxygen consumption before and after the addition of horse cytochrome c.

▼ In the southern Appalachians there are few data on the roost ecology of the federally endangered Indiana bat (Myotis sodalis). During 2008-2012, we investigated roosting ecology of the Indiana bat in ~280,000 ha in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Cherokee National Forest, and Nantahala National Forest in the southern Appalachians Mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina. We investigated 2 aspects of the Indiana bat’s roosting ecology: thermoregulation and the extrinsic factors that influence body temperature, and landscape-scale roost selection. To investigate thermoregulation of bats at roost, we used data gathered in 2012 from 6 female Indiana bats (5 adults and 1 juvenile) to examine how reproductive condition, group size, roost characteristics, air temperature, and barometric pressure related to body temperature of roosting bats. We found that air temperature was the primary factor correlated with bats’ body temperatures while at roost (P < 0.01), with few differences detected among reproductive classes in terms of thermoregulatory strategies. To understand how Indiana bats select roosts on a landscape-scale, we created a presence-only model through the program MaxENT using 76 known roost locations to identify areas important to summer roosting habitat within our study area and to identify important landscape-scale factors in habitat selection. The final model showed that Indiana bats selected roosts on the upper portion of ridges on south facing slopes in mixed pine-hardwood forests at elevations of 260-700 meters. Unfortunately, due to small sample size and the large effort required to fully investigate thermoregulation of Indiana bats in the southern Appalachians, we only were able run correlations with temperature data, and further investigation is needed to make concrete conclusions. However, the new advancements in resolution of landscape cover data and new programs in spatial modeling have enabled us to produce a large scale spatial model for identifying Indiana bat summer roosting habitat within our study area. Our findings have added to our understanding of Indiana bat roosting ecology, particularly in the southern Appalachian Mountains, and will aid land managers in effective management for this federally endangered species.

▼ Background: Forced-air warming and resistive-polymer heating blankets are both popular devices used to prevent inadvertent hypothermia in the perioperative patient. There are differing reports in the literature as to which method is most efficacious. We performed a retrospective, quasi-experimental study to compare the effectiveness of these devices at warming patients intraoperatively. The institution where the data were collected had switched from a forced-air to a resistive-polymer device for trial period, which provided a natural experiment for this study. Methods: In this study, we collected data from 426 patients that had elective, non-spine orthopedic procedures. Data were extracted from electronic medical records on patients who received forced-air warming (n = 119) and on patients who were warmed with resistive-polymer heating blankets (n = 307). The documented intraoperative temperatures were used as the outcome measures for determining inadvertent perioperative hypothermia, final temperature, and temperature changes throughout the case. Results: This study found that the use of forced-air warming was associated with a significantly higher final intraoperative temperature (p = .001, d = .46) compared with the resistive-polymer heating blanket as a means of perioperative temperature management of non-spine, orthopedic patients. The incidence of hypothermia was not found to be significantly different between the groups at the final temperature (p = .102) or at anytime throughout surgery (p = .270). The forced-air warming group had a lower incidence of hypothermia at the end of the case among those that started hypothermic compared to the resistive heating group (p = .023). There was a moderate strength of association between the use of forced-air warming and a positive rise in temperature from the starting to final temperature (p = .001, r = .22). However, no causal relationship between warming device and temperatures or hypothermia incidence should be assumed.

▼ The vegetation surrounding a nest shades and insulates the incubating bird in addition to concealing it. The vegetative material that makes up a nest insulates the eggs from its warmer or cooler surroundings. Since a Killdeer builds a stone-lined nest on barren ground, both egg and adult are subject to more climatological variation than most other bird species and their eggs. In May and June, 1973, six nesting pairs studied at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge were directly exposed to air temperatures (T[subscript a]s) as low as 0°C and to intense solar radiation. At T[subscript a]s helm, 12°C, the maximum "dummy" egg temperature (T[subscript e]) recorded from five nests was 34°C as opposed to a maximum T[subscript e] of 37°C from nest3 at 25°C T[subscript a]. This information suggests that at low T[subscript a]s, the Killdeers' heat output did not keep pace with the increased rate of heat loss from the eggs to the ground. Three of four pair of Killdeers showed the lowest incidence of preening at T[subscript a]s below 12°C. The movements involved in this interruptive behavior would tend to, decrease the thickness of the birds' feather insulation. Thus the Killdeers may have foregone preening at low T[subscript a]s in the interest of conserving body heat. Data from five nesting pairs showed that the Killdeers began to open their mouths (increased evaporative cooling) and stand over their nests (increased convective cooling) at T[subscript a]s betw 25-29°C. The incidence of these thermoregulatory behaviors increased with increasing T[subscript a] (up to 40°C). Between Tas of 28-38°C, two of four pairs spent less time standing when there was wind at ground level than they did when it was still sitting in response to air flow, the Killdeers were probably attenuating convective heat loss. "Dummy" T[subscript e]s from five nests ranged between 35-40°C when the Killdeers were standing. The fact that the eggs were always in the birds' shadow explains why lethal T[subscript e]s (43-45°C) were never reached. The rate of radiant and conductive heat input from the ground and air must have been sufficient to prevent T[subscript e]s from dropping below 35°C. Advisors/Committee Members: McDonald Dennis L.

▼ The thermoregulatory responses of subjects wearing two different forms of rugby league jersey, one with plastic sponsorship recognition and numbering (trial Gl) and one without (trial G2), and a lightweight alternative (trial G3), were compared with a trial without any form of upper body garment (trial GO). Ten male volunteers, mean age 20.9 (±2.3) years, height 179.8 (±4.7) cm, weight 80.2 (±8.9) kg, and body surface area 1.99 (±0.13) m2, participated in this study. Subjects had a mean maximal oxygen uptake capacity of 56.0 (±6.3) ml.kg.min-1 and a sum of 8 skinfolds of 80.6 (±23.8) mm. Subjects were exercised at approximately 50% of maximal oxygen uptake in a warm humid environment for 50 minutes. Mean ambient temperature was 27.6°C (±0.32) with a relative humidity of 64.7% (±1.44). Measurements of core and skin (7 sites) temperature, heart rate, oxygen uptake, plasma volume, peak lactate concentration, and pre- and post-trial body weight, hematocrit and garment weight were recorded. The statistical results showed that all subjects experienced significant (p ≤.0001) decreases in body weight representing a percentage decrease ranging from 1.2-1.3%. No significant difference was found between trials with respect to body weight change. No significant effect of garment type was found on pre- and post-trial hematocrit, plasma volume changes or peak blood lactic acid concentration. However, mean peak lactate was highest for trial Gl (5.6 mmol.L-1 ±2.2) and lowest for trial G3 (4.6 mmol.L-1 ±1.27). Post-trial core temperature was significantly (p≤ .0001) higher than the resting value; no significant difference was found between trials. The mean absolute increase for all experimental trials was 0.9°C. A significant (p≤.005) difference between mean total (7 sites) skin temperature was found with a post-hoc test revealing that trials Gl and G2 were significantly higher than trial GO; no significant difference was found when comparing trial G3 with trial GO or when comparing the garments between each other. Mean skin temperature under the garment (4 sites) was found to be significantly (p≤.05) higher for all trials involving a garment when compared with mean skin temperature outside (3 sites) the garment; no significant difference was found between trials. Mean oxygen uptake was significantly different between trials (p≤.005), with trial Gl and G3 found to be significantly lower than trial GO; no difference was found when comparing the garments with each other. Post-trial garment weights were significantly (p≤.001) heavier than pre-trial and were significantly (p≤.0001) different when compared with each other. There was no significant effect on heart rate, haematocrit, plasma volume changes, peak blood lactic acid concentration, or core temperature due to garment type. However, differences in skin temperature suggest that the garment used in trial G3 may have a benefit. Further research should consider the impact of increased exercise intensity and/or environmental temperature and humidity on the measured parameters while…

▼ The regulatory properties of fructose 1,6-diphosphatase (FDPase) from liver of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri), South American lungfish (Lepidosiren paradoxa) and migrating pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) were examined over the physiological temperature ranges of the organisms. In rainbow trout saturation curves for substrate (fructose 1,6-diphosphate), and a cofactor (Mg²⁺ ) are sigmoidal, and the evidence suggests cooperative interaction between the binding sites for these ligands. The affinity of the trout enzyme is approximately 50-to 100-fold higher for Mn²⁺ than for Mg²⁺ and the Mn²⁺ saturation curve is hyperbolic. The enzyme is inhibited by Ca²⁺ and Zn²⁺ and this inhibition appears to be competitive with respect to cofactor. The trout FDPase has an alkaline pH optimum and high pH values enhance FDPase affinity for cofactor. Low concentrations of 5'AMP inhibit the rainbow trout FDPase and the enzyme-AMP interaction is sensitive to temperature; thus, Ki for AMP at 25° is approximately 30-fold higher than at 0°. Furthermore, increasing concentrations of the cofactors tend to reduce and/or reverse the AMP inhibition and it is suggested that these ions may play a role in regulating the efficiency of AMP as an inhibitor of FDPase activity. Similar to the trout FDPase, substrate and cofactor saturation curves for the lungifsh FDPase are sigmoid and Hill plots of the data suggest homotropic interaction between their respective binding sites. Affinity of the lungfish enzyme for substrate increases markedly at low temperature, with the result that at physiological concentrations of substrate, the velocity of the reaction is essentially independent of temperature. In addition, increasing pH values stimulate enzyme activity and increase affinity of the lungfish FDPase for cofactor. The lungfish enzyme is inhibited by AMP, as is the trout FDPase, but affinity for the allosteric inhibitor is reduced and this FDPase-AMP interaction is independent of temperature. It is suggested that the decreased sensitivity to AMP is adaptive in view of the aestivating habit of the South American lungfish, under which condition the animal would be starved for long periods of time and a low energy charge (high concentrations of AMP) would probably exist in the liver cell. The regulatory properties of FDPase from migrating salmon were investigated. The calculated energy charge of the liver cell from these fish is very low (0.464) in keeping with the extended starvation and high rates of muscular and biosynthetic activity in these organisms. As in the trout and lungfish enzymes, affinity of salmon FDPase for substrate increases with a decrease in temperature. As a result at physiological concentrations of substrate enzyme activity is independent of temperature. Arrhenius plots of the saturation kinetics are complex and suggest an inter-conversion of one or more forms of the enzyme. Subsequent examination of the enzyme by sucrose density gradient centrifugation at different temperatures indicates that…

▼ Behavior represents our most preferred and effective modality by which body temperature is regulated. However, knowledge concerning the control of this behavior in humans is relatively limited. Therefore, the overall purpose of this thesis was to further our understanding of the control of human thermoregulatory behavior. This was accomplished by firstly establishing self-paced exercise and heat stress as a thermal behavioral model, while secondly the control of this behavior was investigated. In the first part of this thesis, voluntary reductions in exercise intensity have been found to be associated with thermal discomfort and reductions in heat production, which presumably improved heat exchange between the body and the environment over time, and ultimately aided body temperature regulation. Thus, these experimental data associatively indicate that reductions in exercise intensity in the heat are thermoregulatory behaviors, suggesting that self-paced exercise in the heat is a valid model by which to evaluate human thermal behavior. The studies presented in the second part of this thesis systematically evaluated the control of this behavior. It was subsequently demonstrated that skin temperature and the accompanying alterations in thermal perception and the percentage of peak oxygen uptake elicited by a given exercise intensity are all modulators of exercise intensity, and thus thermal behavior, in the heat. Notably, reductions in peak oxygen uptake appear to play a minimal role. Importantly, these studies strengthened the associations observed in the first part of this thesis by specifically establishing a causative relationship between exercise intensity and temperature regulation. Furthermore, the experimental observations also indicated that thermal behavior during self-paced exercise is ultimately initiated by the perception of effort response. In conclusion, the findings presented in this thesis suggest that a voluntary reduction in exercise intensity occurring in the heat is a thermoregulatory behavior, and that this behavior can be directly elicited by changes associated with elevations in skin temperature. During such instances, thermal perception and the percentage of peak oxygen uptake elicited by a given exercise intensity have been uniquely identified as contributors to this behavior. The findings of this thesis improve our understanding of the control of human thermoregulatory behavior.

▼ Torpor and hibernation, two distinct forms of heterothermy, are physiological responses employed by many endotherms to save energy during periods of cold, climatic unpredictability and food shortage. Heterothermy is characterized by varying body temperature and has been found to occur in various subtropical mammals. However, studies on thermoregulatory capabilities of South African Microchiroptera remain relatively scant. In this study, the capacity for use of heterothermy, the seasonal metabolic rates, and capacity for non-shivering thermogenesis were studied in four species of bats, namely Rhinolophus clivosus, Rhinolophus capensis, Miniopterus natalensis and Myotis tricolor. Animals were collected from a group of three mines in Sleepy Hollow Farm, 30km from Port Elizabeth, South Africa. All species demonstrated bouts of torpor in the winter while R. clivosus interestingly established a high propensity for torpor in the summer and normothermia in the winter. To my knowledge, this is the first study that has shown the down-regulation of metabolism and body temperature in summer and constant maintenance of normothermic body temperature in winter in a species of Microchiroptera. M. natalensis was thermolabile in both summer and winter and body temperatures closely tracked ambient temperatures. Mean ± SD normothermic body temperature measured of wild-caught R. clivosus and M. natalensis was 38.6 ± 1.7°C and 37.3 ± 2.2°C, respectively. Mean torpid body temperature measured of wild-caught R. clivosus, R. capensis and M. natalensis was 22.7 ± 3.3°C, 21.1 ± 3.2 °C, and 22.6 ± 3.1°C, respectively. Non-shivering thermogenesis was measured in R. clivosus and M. natalensis to determine the role of endogenous heat production in a volant mammal. The mean noradrenalineinduced thermogenesis ± SD in R. clivosus and M. natalensis was 2.6 ± 0.8 ml g-1 hr-1 and 2.7 ± 0.6 ml O2 g-1 hr-1, respectively. Both species demonstrated capacity for non-shivering thermogenesis, and this is the first study that has quantified the maximal response to noradrenaline in an Afrotropical Microchiropteran species. Physiology of Afrotropical bats is understudied and the extent to which torpor and/or hibernation is utilized amongst them remains relatively unknown. Heterothermy clearly plays a significant role in the energetic savings and balance of all four species in the study. Advisors/Committee Members: Mzilikazi, N.

▼ Obesity occurs when nutrient intake exceeds energy expenditure over prolonged periods. In the modern world, obesity has reached epidemic proportions. Complications of obesity, including cardiovascular disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, certain forms of cancer, and metabolic dysfunction contribute substantially to morbidity and death today. With 13% of the world’s population affected, the rising rates of obesity will grow as a public health burden. Until recently, pharmacologic attempts to treat obesity have focused on reducing food intake. However, motivated in part by recent studies in mice and by analyses of fat in humans, approaches to increasing energy expenditure, specifically thermogenic energy expenditure, may provide a new therapeutic avenue. Most simplistically, there are two classes of adipocytes: storage and thermogenic. Storage fat, typically composed of unilocular white adipocytes function as storage depots for excess calories. On the other hand, thermogenic fat containing brown or beige adipocytes, generate heat through uncoupled mitochondrial respiration, This regulated generation of heat, known as thermogenesis, is used by organisms to maintain or increase body temperature. Historically, thermogenesis has been divided into shivering and nonshivering thermogenesis. Repeated, rapid contraction of skeletal muscles generate heat and is the basis for shivering thermogenesis. Nonshivering thermogenesis (NST) describes all the other mechanisms by which an organism can generate regulated heat. Only two organelles are known to contribute to NST: the mitochondrion of brown and beige adipocytes and the sarcoplasmic reticulum of muscle. The role of other organelles has not been systematically studied. Here we show in mice that thermogenic stimuli, including a cold challenge and pyrogenic molecules, activate a lysosomal program in a known thermogenic tissue (BAT) as well as several “non-thermogenic” organs, including the spleen, liver and skeletal muscle. A similar program is activated by a cold challenge in the metazoan, Drosophila melanogaster, suggesting an evolutionarily ancient origin for this response. We show by both pharmacologic and genetic means that impairment of lysosomal function compromises the thermogenic response of individual cells ex vivo and of mice in vivo. Data from genetic manipulations find that impairment of lysosome function that leads to cold intolerance and death can modestly downregulate the classical Ucp1 thermogenic program. However, pharmacological inhibition reveals that impairment of lysosome function can compromise thermogenesis without altering the Ucp1 program. As part of our efforts to study lysosome function in thermogenesis we developed a new method of measuring thermogenesis in primary cells. Using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), we quantitatively measured the heat generated by cells isolated from mice. This permitted us to assess the effects of both genetic and pharmacologic manipulations on the generation of heat and allowed us, for…

▼ Crianças frequentemente realizam atividades físicas em ambientes quentes. O calor pode afetar o desempenho, conforto subjetivo, tolerância ao exercício e ser preocupante para a saúde. Além disso, parece que crianças obesas, comparadas com as magras, apresentam desvantagens ao se exercitarem no calor. Devido à importância do exercício aeróbio para o manejo da obesidade e promoção da saúde, essas diferenças merecem ser elucidadas, principalmente em meninas, devido à escassez de informações. Objetivo: Comparar as respostas termorregulatórias e perceptivas de meninas pré-púberes magras e obesas durante e após uma sessão de exercício, de similar intensidade relativa, em condição ambiental termoneutra e de calor. Métodos: Para a revisão da literatura, foram selecionados artigos com as palavras chaves: thermoregulation, obesity, children, girls, sweating, exercise, heat, hydration e acclimatization. No estudo experimental, vinte e sete meninas ativas e aclimatizadas, alocadas nos grupos magras e obesas conforme a adiposidade (≤ 25% para as magras e  30% para as obesas) medida pelo DXA, participaram do estudo. Elas pedalaram (carga de 55% do VO2pico) e recuperaram (sentadas) por 30 minutos numa condição termoneutra e outra de calor, com água disponível para ser ingerida à vontade. A temperatura retal (Tre), frequência cardíaca (FC), taxa de percepção de esforço (TPE), sensação térmica, conforto térmico e irritabilidade foram avaliados periodicamente. A sudorese foi avaliada, e durante o exercício no calor foi coletada uma amostra de suor para análise da concentração de eletrólitos (Na+, Cl- e K+). Resultados: Revisão — estudos com meninos indicam que os obesos parecem ser prejudicados nas respostas termorregulatórias durante exercício no calor relacionado: prejuízos na dissipação por convecção devido à menor área de superfície corporal (ASC) pela massa corporal; a menor taxa de sudorese, condicionamento físico, tolerância ao exercício e capacidade de aclimatação ao calor; ao maior custo metabólico para locomoção; e prejuízo na dissipação de calor pela maior gordura subcutânea. Não foram encontrados estudos comparando as respostas termorregulatórias de meninas magras e obesas no calor; e os estudos com o sexo feminino apresentam resultados parcialmente contraditórios ao masculino. Experimento — a Tre inicial foi maior nas obesas nas duas sessões (no calor 37,5 ± 0,3 vs. 37,3 ± 0,3 ºC, e na termoneutra 37,6 ± 0,3 vs. 37,3 ± 0,2 ºC; p = 0,03) e se manteve durante o exercício; e a magnitude do aumento foi maior nas magras, sendo que no calor a Tre final ultrapassou a das obesas (37,8 ± 0,2 vs. 38,0 ± 0,2 ºC; p = 0,04). As magras relataram diminuição do conforto térmico (p = 0,009) e aumento da irritação (p = 0,02) no decorrer do exercício. A FC, respostas perceptivas de TPE e sensação térmica foram semelhantes entre os grupos, assim como as respostas de sudorese. Observou-se maior concentração de Na+ no suor nas obesas (78,7 ± 47,5 vs. 50,5 ± 12,1 mEql-1; p = 0,04). Conclusão: Meninas obesas apresentaram maior Tre inicial, e… Advisors/Committee Members: Meyer, Flavia.

▼ The thermoregulatory responses of subjects wearing two different forms of rugby league jersey, one with plastic sponsorship recognition and numbering (trial Gl) and one without (trial G2), and a lightweight alternative (trial G3), were compared with a trial without any form of upper body garment (trial GO). Ten male volunteers, mean age 20.9 (±2.3) years, height 179.8 (±4.7) cm, weight 80.2 (±8.9) kg, and body surface area 1.99 (±0.13) m2, participated in this study. Subjects had a mean maximal oxygen uptake capacity of 56.0 (±6.3) ml.kg.min-1 and a sum of 8 skinfolds of 80.6 (±23.8) mm. Subjects were exercised at approximately 50% of maximal oxygen uptake in a warm humid environment for 50 minutes. Mean ambient temperature was 27.6°C (±0.32) with a relative humidity of 64.7% (±1.44). Measurements of core and skin (7 sites) temperature, heart rate, oxygen uptake, plasma volume, peak lactate concentration, and pre- and post-trial body weight, hematocrit and garment weight were recorded. The statistical results showed that all subjects experienced significant (p ≤.0001) decreases in body weight representing a percentage decrease ranging from 1.2-1.3%. No significant difference was found between trials with respect to body weight change. No significant effect of garment type was found on pre- and post-trial hematocrit, plasma volume changes or peak blood lactic acid concentration. However, mean peak lactate was highest for trial Gl (5.6 mmol.L-1 ±2.2) and lowest for trial G3 (4.6 mmol.L-1 ±1.27). Post-trial core temperature was significantly (p≤ .0001) higher than the resting value; no significant difference was found between trials. The mean absolute increase for all experimental trials was 0.9°C. A significant (p≤.005) difference between mean total (7 sites) skin temperature was found with a post-hoc test revealing that trials Gl and G2 were significantly higher than trial GO; no significant difference was found when comparing trial G3 with trial GO or when comparing the garments between each other. Mean skin temperature under the garment (4 sites) was found to be significantly (p≤.05) higher for all trials involving a garment when compared with mean skin temperature outside (3 sites) the garment; no significant difference was found between trials. Mean oxygen uptake was significantly different between trials (p≤.005), with trial Gl and G3 found to be significantly lower than trial GO; no difference was found when comparing the garments with each other. Post-trial garment weights were significantly (p≤.001) heavier than pre-trial and were significantly (p≤.0001) different when compared with each other. There was no significant effect on heart rate, haematocrit, plasma volume changes, peak blood lactic acid concentration, or core temperature due to garment type. However, differences in skin temperature suggest that the garment used in trial G3 may have a benefit. Further research should consider the impact of…

There is a common belief that children compared with adults are at a greater risk for exercise-induced heat illness. However, a limitation of previous studies involves different exercise intensities used in the comparison between children and adults. Dehydration impairs aerobic performance, but its effects on strength are not well understood. Sports drinks are often used as ergogenic aids. There is some evidence to suggest children have a greater reliance on exogenous carbohydrate compared to adults, which could require special considerations when children exercise in the heat. The overall purpose of this thesis was to compare physiological and metabolic responses during exercise in the heat between boys and men. Three studies were conducted to 1) compare the thermoregulatory responses of boys and men exercising in the heat at a fixed absolute metabolic heat production or a fixed metabolic heat production per unit of body mass; 2) compare the effects of 2% hypohydration or, euhydration with and without carbohydrate ingestion during exercise in the heat on subsequent strength in boys and men; and 3) examine the effects of exogenous carbohydrate on endogenous metabolism in boys and men exercising in the heat. Age and body size differences between boys and men did not influence thermoregulatory responses at a fixed metabolic heat production per unit of body mass. No differences in strength were observed among trials. When exercising in the heat, the relative contribution of ingested carbohydrate and endogenous substrate to total energy yield were not different between groups. These findings together have practical implications for boys and men who exercise in the heat. Specifically, moderate exercise in the heat is equally safe for boys and men. The effects of hypohydration and a carbohydrate drink compared to water on muscle strength performance following exercise in the heat are minimal. An important practical application is that carbohydrate intake spared endogenous fuels during exercise in the heat in both groups.

Thesis

Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Children may not adapt to temperature extremes as effectively as adults. Thermoregulatory differences may be due to variable exercise intensities prescribed in available child-adult comparisons. Dehydration affects aerobic performance, but its effects on strength are not well understood. Sports drinks are often used to offset dehydration and improve performance; however, the body may have a harder time using sugar drinks when exercising in the heat. The purpose of this thesis was to compare bodily responses of boys and men during exercise in the heat. Our findings have important practical implications for boys and men who exercise and play sports in hot temperatures. Specifically, exercise in the heat is equally safe for boys and men. The effects of hypohydration and a sports drink on muscle strength performance following exercise in the heat are minimal. Finally, although exercise in the heat may affect the use of a sugar drink, boys and men may use this drink…

▼ Humans regulate body temperature across a wide range of environmental conditions. This is achieved through specialised control pathways that enable the body to detect, integrate and respond to variations in internal and external temperatures. Thermoreceptors, located both centrally and peripherally, detect these temperature changes and provide thermoafferent feedback which is integrated by the hypothalamus and results in the modulation of three thermoeffector mechanisms: vasomotion, sudomotion and thermogenesis. Vasomotion primarily regulates body temperature in thermoneutral environments, while sudomotion and thermogenesis are only activated when skin blood flow can no longer defend mean body temperature. Interestingly, the control of each of these thermoeffectors is not only influenced by core temperature, but also by peripheral (skin) temperature. Indeed, it is generally understood that an approximate ratio of 9:1 (core:skin) exists in the heat. However, the interactions of core and local skin temperature, and the determinants of each of these thermoeffectors (vasomotion, sudomotion and thermogenesis) remains to be more clearly elucidated. Accordingly, the current series of investigations was focussed upon understanding how these thermoeffectors respond and interact during exposure to a range of environmental conditions, but with a particular emphasis upon skin blood flow in the acral and non-acral skin regions. Firstly, we investigated methods for cooling hyperthermic individuals through whole-body water immersion, and the physiological mechanisms associated with this treatment (Chapters 2 and 3). Secondly, we explored the interactions among central and peripheral thermoreceptor feedback, and direct thermal effects on skin blood flow in both acral and non-acral skin regions (Chapter 4 and 5). Finally, we investigated how thermoeffector activation was modified following deliberate modification of the steady-state, pre-exposure mean body temperatures (Chapter 6). The first phase of these investigations was designed to provide an understanding of the physiological mechanisms associated with cooling hyperthermic individuals using water immersion. In the first experiment (Chapter 2), we explored three different cooling methods to reduce body core temperature of hyperthermic individuals: air (20-22°C); cold-water immersion (14°C); temperate-water immersion (26°C). In the second experiment (Chapter 3), we investigated whether a more powerful vasoconstriction was present during cold-water immersion, as determined by measuring …

▼ Endothermy in birds and mammals is invariably associated with homeothermy. However, homeothermy can only be maintained if sufficient energy is obtained to meet the animals' maintenance budget. In mammals, daily torpor and hibernation have evolved to conserve energy when energy inputs from the environment are insufficient to meet maintenance requirements. Several studies have suggested that daily torpor and hibernation do not represent distinct physiological responses but are components of a continuum of heterothermy. Under laboratory conditions, even within phylogenetically ancient eutherian mammals, such as elephant shrews, it is unclear whether daily torpor or hibernation is used. Furthermore, an interpretation of the torpor patterns observed under laboratory conditions is complicated by the fact that torpor patterns often differ between laboratory and free-ranging conditions. Within the more recent mammal lineages, torpor has been observed in strepsirrhine primates. The occurrence of torpor in strepsirrhines is interesting as it pertains to arguments relating to the colonization of Madagascar by strepsirrhine primates as well as implications for human physiology. The first aim of this study was to investigate and quantify parameters that characterize torpor in a phylogenetically ancient eutherian mammal (Macroscelidae: Elephantulus myurus) under free-ranging conditions. This was done mainly to resolve whether daily torpor and hibernation were physiologically discrete responses. The second aim was to investigate torpor occurrence in a more recently evolved eutherian mammal (Primates: Galago moholi). The objective was to gain insights into the phylogenetic distribution of torpor and to provide a physiological verification of torpor occurrence in a mainland strepsirrhine relative to arguments about the colonization of Madagascar. I measured body temperatures in three monthly cycles between May 2001 - May 2002 in 22 free-ranging E. myurus. I recorded a total of 467 torpor bouts throughout the study period. The elephant shrews were capable of daily torpor throughout the year, with torpor most prevalent during winter and correlated with ambient temperature, photoperiod and invertebrate abundance. Only two torpor bouts were observed during summer. I suggest that although torpor use was most prevalent during winter, summer torpor might also be important for energy conservation in this species during drought years. This highlights the need for long-term physiological data in free-ranging animals. The mean torpor Tbmin and the mean bout length for the whole year were in the range expected for daily heterotherms. However, there was some marginal overlap with hibernation characteristics; a few torpor bouts were longer than 24 hrs in duration indicating that the animals were capable of opportunistically extending torpor bouts longer than 24 hours in response to unpredictable energetic shortfalls. Tbmin also decreased below 10°C. However, a consideration of behavioural and ecological factors argues against hibernation… Advisors/Committee Members: Lovegrove, Barry Gordon.

▼ Animals have evolved diverse strategies to control solar and thermal radiations so that they can better adapt to their natural habitats. Structured materials utilized by these animals to control electromagnetic waves often surpass analogous man-made optical materials in both sophistication and efficiency. Understanding the physical mechanism behind these structured materials of nature inspires one to create novel materials and technologies. Our optical and thermodynamic measurements of insects (Saharan silver ants and cocoons of the Madagascar comet moth) living in harsh thermal environments showed their unique ability to simultaneously enhance solar reflectivity and thermal emissivity, and to maintain a cool body temperature. Saharan silver ants, Cataglyphis bombycina, forage on the desert surface during the middle of the day. The ants’ conspicuous silvery glance is caused by a coating of hairs with unique triangular cross-sections. The hair coating enhances not only the reflectivity of the ant’s body surface in the visible and near-infrared range of the spectrum, where solar radiation culminates, but also the emissivity of the ant in the mid-infrared. The latter effect enables the animals to efficiently dissipate heat back to the surroundings via blackbody radiation under full daylight conditions. The fibers produced by the wild comet moth, Argema mittrei, are populated with a high density of air voids that have a random distribution in the fiber cross-section but are invariant along the fiber. These filamentary air voids strongly back-scatter light in the solar spectrum, which, in combination with the fibers’ intrinsic high emissivity in the mid-infrared, enables the cocoon to function as an efficient radiative-cooling device, preventing the pupa inside from overheating. The reduced dimensionality of the random voids leads to strong optical scattering in the transverse direction of the cocoon fibers. This enables tightly confined optical modes to propagate along the fibers via transverse Anderson localization. We made the first observation of transverse Anderson localization in a natural fiber and further demonstrated light focusing and image transport in the fibers. This discovery opens up the possibility to use wild silk fibers as a biocompatible and bioresorbable material for transporting optical signals and images. Drawing inspirations from these discoveries, we designed and developed high-throughput fabrication processes to create coatings and fibers with passive radiative-cooling properties. The radiative-cooling coatings consist of various nanoparticles imbedded within a silicone thin film. The sizes and materials of the nanoparticles were chosen to provide simultaneously high solar reflectivity and thermal emissivity. The coating has been implemented in two site studies on real roofs and has demonstrated reduced roof temperature by up to 30 °C in the summer and associated reduction of electricity usage by up to 30%. We also made biomimetic fibers from regenerated silk…
