Thermal Adaptability

<p>The effects of green areas and shading strategies have been identified as an effective means to reduce urban risk factors such as the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. Even though the importance of shaded outdoor spaces and thermal comfort have been well documented in the existing literature; there is still limited research on how these spaces can influence thermal adaptability and cognitive performance in primary school children.</p><p>As a result, the aim of the study is twofold: (1) to evaluate the effect of outdoor shaded spaces upon thermal comfort; and, (2) link such results upon the cognitive performance of primary school students in a classroom environment with natural ventilation. A case study shall be conducted with primary school students between the ages of 8-10 in the Bilkent Primary School in Ankara during the month of September.</p><p>The quantitative thermal microclimatic conditions of unshaded/shaded areas of the schoolyard and indoor classrooms are obtained through the Physiologically Equivalent Temperature (PET) index. The qualitative evaluation of thermal comfort is undertaken by using both the adaptive model, and a complementary thermal sensation survey. As a result, both human physiological and psychological attributes of thermal comfort adaptation shall be evaluated and cross-examined in the study. Attention and memory tasks are given to the respondents in order to measure the cognitive performance of the students that are subjected to different experiences of outdoor shading levels.</p><p>The outcome of this individual study shall pinpoint the contributions of shaded outdoor green spaces upon the thermal adaptability and cognitive performance of children within classroom settings.</p>

Expression of stress genes under thermal stress partially explain the relatively higher thermal adaptability of indigenous breeds compared to exotic breeds of cattle. ATP1A1 gene is one of such gene that encodes for a1 isomer of Na+, K+- ATPase enzyme for Na+- coupled transport of metabolites, nutrients, ions and represents a plausible candidate for heat tolerance traits. Present study was designed to compare SNP variations in ATP1A1 gene and to evaluate their association with respiration rate, rectal temperature and heat tolerance coefficient in Sahiwal (51) and Karan Fries (50) cows maintained at Livestock Research Centre of National Dairy Research Institute, Karnal. Two SNPs (T27008243C and A27008223G) were identified in both the dairy cattle breeds. Association of each SNP genotype was analyzed using Generalized Linear Model procedure in Statistical Analysis System (SAS). Sahiwal cows with TT (15.91±1.89b) at T27008243C locus had lowest RR compared to TC genotypes (18.25±1.77ab) and CC genotype (19.24±1.52a), while in Karan Fries cows RR for AA genotype at A27008223G locus was lower (28.85±1.96b) compared to GG genotype (32.37±2.51a). Thus, the study indicated that the TT genotype at T27008243C locus in Sahiwal and AA genotype at 27008223 locus in Karan Fries cows are desirable genotypes for genetic adaptability under heat stress.
