Effects of increasing air temperature on physiological and productive responses of dairy cows at different relative humidity and air velocity levels

M. Zhou et al.

Summary: This study examined the effects of increasing ambient temperature on the physiological and productive responses of dairy cows at different relative humidity and air velocity levels. The results showed that relative humidity and air velocity significantly affected the respiratory rate, rectal temperature, skin temperature, and milk production of the cows.

Thermodynamic assessment of heat stress in dairy cattle: lessons from human biometeorology

Sepehr Foroushani et al.

Summary: This paper highlights the importance of a versatile meteorological index for predicting heat stress in dairy cattle and draws inspiration from classical work on human biometeorology. It emphasizes the need for a detailed understanding of heat transfer and thermoregulation and proposes new meteorological index parameters.

Effects of increasing air temperature on skin and respiration heat loss from dairy cows at different relative humidity and air velocity levels

M. Zhou et al.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of increasing ambient temperature on heat loss from the skin surface and respiratory system of dairy cows at different relative humidity and air velocity levels. The results showed that skin heat loss decreased with increasing ambient temperature, while skin latent heat loss increased. Relative humidity and air velocity had no significant effect on heat loss. Under long exposure conditions, cows lost more heat compared to short exposure conditions.

A mechanistic thermal balance model of dairy cattle

Jinghui Li et al.

Summary: A dynamic model was developed to predict the thermal balance of Holstein dairy cattle, showing sensitivity to heat production, surface area, respiration, and sweating parameters. The model accurately simulated body temperatures under typical summer conditions in California, providing insights for the use of cooling strategies in dairy facilities.

Development and evaluation of thermal models for predicting skin temperature of dairy cattle

Geqi Yan et al.

Summary: Heat stress significantly affects dairy production, and predicting skin temperature is crucial for guiding climate control systems. The study developed thermal models to predict Tskin of dairy cows, with the mechanistic model performing best for mean Tskin and the thermoregulatory model providing satisfactory performance for maximum Tskin. Environmental parameters impact the models' prediction performance under heat stress conditions.

The effects of cow-related factors on rectal temperature, respiration rate, and temperature-humidity index thresholds for lactating cows exposed to heat stress

Geqi Yan et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of cow-related factors on the rectal temperature and respiration rate of lactating dairy cows under different heat stress conditions. The results showed that body posture, milk yield, days in milk, and parity had significant impacts on the parameters measured. The study highlighted the importance of considering these factors in heat stress responses and threshold assessments.
