• Feeding and nutrition management of heat-stressed dairy ruminants (2018, background): “However, moderate HS decreases intake and growth in young sheep consuming a high diets containing high medium quality roughage (Marai et al. 2007).”
• Physiological and thermographic response to heat stress in zebu cattle (2015, background): “Animals with greater thoracic circumference (TC) may exchange larger air volumes and thus more heat lost to the environment through the vapor released in the breath without increasing their respiratory rate (Marai et al., 2007).”
