Development of models to assess potential sheep heat-stress during heat waves
(2013)
It is well documented that heat-stress burdens sheep welfare and productivity. It is expected that peak heat-stress levels are observed when high temperatures prevail, i.e. during heat waves. However, continuous measurements ...
Classification of potential sheep heat-stress levels according to the prevailing meteorological conditions
(2015)
Many researchers have found that physiology, welfare, health, and productivity of ruminants are significantly affected when they are exposed to heat-stress conditions. In such cases, heat-stress may also cause a reduction ...
Monitoring particulate matter levels and climate conditions in a Greek sheep and goat livestock building
(2011)
Atmospheric pollutants from livestock operations influence air quality inside livestock buildings and the air exhausted from them. The climate that prevails inside the building affects human and animal health and welfare, ...
Preliminary findings on seasonal heat stress of sheep
(2012)
This paper studies the heat stress conditions imposed onto sheep housed in a naturally ventilated sheep barn during the four seasons of a year. The barn is located near the east coast of central Greece. Heat stress is ...
