Infrared thermography is a non-invasive technique that measures mid to long-wave infrared
radiation emanating from all objects and converts this to temperature. As an imaging …

Simple Summary The current immune, metabolic, and neural pathways and the structures
involved in developing the febrile response and, in return, to thermal homeostasis are …

Thermography is an imaging method which registers infrared waves in the electromagnetic
spectrum that are emitted by all objects on the Earth. The state and properties of the studied …

African mole-rats are subterranean rodents, which rarely if ever leave the safety of their
burrow systems. The environment of the burrows is humid, with relatively stable …

Infrared (IR) thermography, where temperature measurements are made with IR cameras,
has proven to be a very useful and widely used tool in biological science. Several …

In this study, we examined infrared thermograms in the course of time of six African zoo
elephants and observed two phenomena. First, we noticed independent thermal windows …

Elephants use different thermoregulatory mechanisms that depend on the anatomical and
morphological characteristics of the species. The crevices and wrinkles of the skin enhance …

One of the most striking facts about parasites and microbial pathogens that has emerged in
the fields of social evolution and disease ecology in the past few decades is that these …

In an era of global change, thermal biology and ecology are becoming increasingly popular
topics in invertebrate research, including molluscs. However, this area of research is still …
