“…The forehead is one such site, but it is not the warmest, just the warmest among sites commonly evaluated. Instead, the inner canthus of the eye (junction of upper and lower eyelids) provides the closest, surface approximation of deep-body temperature among resting (Barnes, 1967;Ring, 2007), but not exercising individuals (Teunissen and Daanen, 2011). Other potential sites for this approximation include the navel (Barnes, 1967;Olesen and Fanger, 1973) and the lower occiput, neck and upper-thoracic vertebrae (Olesen and Fanger, 1973;Zaproudina et al, 2008;Marins et al, 2014), or regions where body segments are naturally apposed (axilla, groin: Barnes, 1967;Ilsley et al, 1983;Darowski et al, 1991;Childs et al, 1999).…”
