Thermoregulation data
During exercise, core temperature rises 0.8 C, skin blood flow triples, and sweat rate reaches 1.2 L/hour. In dry air, temperature stabilizes; in humid air, it continues rising.
Vasodilation and sweating increase heat loss.
Humidity reduces evaporation.
The same response can be less effective under changed conditions.
