Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Donald E. Spiers is best known for:

Thermoregulation
Poaceae
Feedlot

His Thermoregulation studies intersect with other subjects such as Homeothermy, Basal metabolic rate and Hyperthermia. Hyperthermia and Thermoregulation are two areas of study in which he engages in interdisciplinary research. His work blends Animal science and Food science studies together. Donald E. Spiers connects Food science with Animal science in his research. While working in this field, he studies both Endocrinology and Andrology. Donald E. Spiers integrates many fields, such as Andrology and Endocrinology, in his works. His Heat stress study frequently links to other fields, such as Heat index. His research on Heat index frequently links to adjacent areas such as Heat stress. Internal medicine is closely attributed to Basal metabolic rate in his study.

His most cited work include:

Effects of Controlled Heat Stress on Ovarian Function of Dairy Cattle. 1. Lactating Cows (221 citations)
Use of physiological parameters to predict milk yield and feed intake in heat-stressed dairy cows (151 citations)
Ontogeny of homeothermy in the immature rat: metabolic and thermal responses (93 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date

His Animal science study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Feedlot. His study ties his expertise on Heat index together with the subject of Heat stress. His Heat stress research extends to the thematically linked field of Heat index. His study in Lipopolysaccharide extends to Endocrinology with its themes. Many of his studies on Lipopolysaccharide involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Endocrinology. As part of his studies on Internal medicine, Donald E. Spiers often connects relevant areas like Rectal temperature. His study ties his expertise on Internal medicine together with the subject of Rectal temperature. He merges many fields, such as Botany and Endophyte, in his writings. Donald E. Spiers undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Endophyte and Botany through his works.

Donald E. Spiers most often published in these fields:
