“…In a similar fashion, AD'Wt-1 has also been implicated in the water immersion literature as a contributor to heat transfer. Sloan and Keatinge (1973) showed that the fall in Tre was related to AD'Wt -1 in young swimmers whereas Buskirk and Kollias (1969) …”

“…These data suggest that other explanations should be explored to account for thermal differences between the sexes or between populations. It must be emphasized that the role of body morphology and mass cannot be discounted in thermoregulation especially when large differences in ADWt-l and mass are noted within an individual (arm vs. leg exercise) (Toner et al 1984) or between individuals (younger individual compared with older) (Sloan and Keatinge 1973). …”

Ten male volunteers were divided into two groups based on body morphology and mass. The large-body mass (LM) group (n = 5) was 16.3 kg heavier and 0.22 cm2 X kg-1 X 10(-2) smaller in surface area-to-mass ratio (AD X wt-1) (P less than 0.05) than the small-body mass (SM) group (n = 5). Both groups were similar in total body fat and skinfold thicknesses (P greater than 0.05). All individuals were immersed for 1 h in stirred water at 26 degrees C during both rest and one intensity of exercise (metabolic rate approximately 550 W). During resting exposures metabolic rate (M) and rectal temperature (Tre) were not different (P greater than 0.05) between the LM and SM groups at min 60. Esophageal temperature (Tes) was higher (P less than 0.05) for the SM group at min 60, although the change in Tes during the 60 min between groups was similar (LM, -0.4 degrees C; SM, -0.2 degrees C). Tissue insulation (I) was lower (P less than 0.05) for SM (0.061 degrees C X m-2 X W-1) compared with the LM group (0.098 degrees C X m-2 X W-1). During exercise M, Tre, Tes, and I were not different (P greater than 0.05) between groups at min 60. These data illustrate that a greater body mass between individuals increases the overall tissue insulation during rest, most likely as a result of a greater volume of muscle tissue to provide insulation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

“…Cooling rates have been found to vary widely among individuals with certain factors impacting on their ability to maintain thermal balance including water temperature, body morphology, anthropometry, and whether one remains still or exercises during immersion (Hayward & Keatinge, 1981;Keatinge, Khartchenko, Lando, et al, 2001;Sloan & Keatinge, 1973;Tipton et al, 1999;Wallingford, Ducharme, & Pommier, 2000).…”

“…These explanations have not been demonstrated in cases of cold, wet climates, either at rest or during exercise. A seminal paper published by Sloan and Keatinge (1973) observed the response to hypothermia in children swimming in cold water. They found that subcutaneous fat and SA: M were most strongly correlated to body temperature.…”

“…Body fat has long been associated with cooling rate and the overall body size as reflected by A/V ratio is an important factor controlling the rate of cooling of an individual [25]. Sloan and Keatinge [26] reported that the rate of cooling correlated well regardless of age or gender with the individual's overall surface fat thickness on both trunk and limbs. They found that fat thickness was less and fall in body temperature more rapidly in young than older swimmers, and in boys than girls, even after correction for surface area to mass (A/M) ratio.…”
