Use of dew-point hygrometry, direct sweat collection, and measurement of body water losses to determine sweating rates in exercising horses

Janene K. Kingston,Raymond J. Geor,L. Jill McCutcheon-1997-02-01-American Journal of Veterinary Research

TL;DRAbstract

Dew-point hygrometry and direct sweat collection are useful methods for determination of local SR in horses during prolonged, steady-state exercise in moderate ambient conditions. Both methods of local SR determination provide an accurate estimated of whole body SR.
