The
journal publishes results of work in which the central theme is the mechanisms
by which temperature affects living organisms. It is wide in scope and includes
studies at the biochemical and physiological levels and also at the level of
the organism. The following are examples of the subject areas covered:
Studies on the mechanisms involved in acclimation and acclimatization to
temperature in plants and animals, including the phenomena of hibernation,
dormancy, aestivation and diapause.
The mechanisms of cellular heat and cold injury, and of the resistance of
organisms to extremes of temperature.
Effects of temperature on growth and development, ageing and life-span.
Effects of temperature on micro-organisms.
Behavioural and physiological regulation of body temperature.
Medical applications of hypo- and hyperthermy, excluding descriptive clinical
studies and case-histories.
