Between Tc and Te, the animal is in the thermoneutral zone, where metabolism is stable.
“Between T c and T e , the animal is considered to be in the thermoneutral zone, where metabolism is stable.”
From Theoretical model of heat balance in pigs (2004) · cites this paper as Mount, 1974
If ambient temperature rises above the evaporative critical temperature Te, evaporative heat loss increases and food intake is inhibited, reducing metabolism and heat production.
“If T a rises above the evaporative critical temperature ( T e , ºC), evaporative heat loss increases and food intake is inhibited, reducing metabolism and heat production.”

If heat losses to the environment exceed the maximum heat generation capacity of the animal, body temperature starts to drop rapidly leading to death.
“If heat losses to the environment exceed the maximum heat generation capacity of the animal, body temperature starts to drop rapidly leading to death.”

Changes in ambient temperature alter metabolism and affect the level of heat production and heat loss.
“Changes in ambient temperature ( T a , ºC) alter metabolism and affect the level of heat production and heat loss, as shown in Figure 2.”
From Theoretical model of heat balance in pigs (2004) · cites this paper as Mount, 1974
In cold conditions when Ta < Tc, heat production increases in response to a decrease in temperature, up to a maximum.
“In cold conditions (when T a < T c ), heat production increases in response to a decrease in temperature, up to a maximum (Mount, 1974).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
