Heat acclimation improves heat exercise tolerance and heat dissipation in individuals with extensive skin grafts.
Burn survivors with extensive skin grafts have impaired heat dissipation and thus heat tolerance. This study tested the hypothesis that heat acclimation (HA) improves these factors in this population. Thirty-four burn survivors were stratified into highly [>40% body surface area (BSA) grafted, n = 15] and moderately (17-40% BSA grafted, n = 19) grafted groups. Nine healthy nonburned subjects se...
متن کاملSurface renewal method for estimating sensible heat flux
For short canopies, latent energy flux may be estimated using a shortened surface energy balance from measurements of sensible and soil heat flux and the net irradiance at the surface. The surface renewal (SR) method for estimating sensible heat, latent energy, and other scalar fluxes has the advantage over other micrometeorological methods since the method requires only measurement of the scal...
متن کاملEstimating sap flux densities in date palm trees using the heat dissipation method and weighing lysimeters.
In a world of diminishing water reservoirs and a rising demand for food, the practice and development of water stress indicators and sensors are in rapid progress. The heat dissipation method, originally established by Granier, is herein applied and modified to enable sap flow measurements in date palm trees in the southern Arava desert of Israel. A long and tough sensor was constructed to with...
متن کاملEarth ’ s surface heat flux
We present a revised estimate of Earth’s surface heat flux that is based upon a heat flow data-set with 38 347 measurements, which is 55% more than used in previous estimates. Our methodology, like others, accounts for hydrothermal circulation in young oceanic crust by utilising a half-space cooling approximation. For the rest of Earth’s surface, we estimate the average heat flow for different ...
متن کاملEstimating sensible and latent heat flux densities from grapevine canopies using surface renewal
Fine-wire thermocouples were used to measure high-frequency temperature above and within canopies and structure functions were employed to determine temperature ramp characteristics, which were used in a fundamental conservation of energy equation to estimate sensible heat flux density. Earlier experiments over dense, tall, and short canopies demonstrated that the surface renewal method works, ...
