Abstract
Ground temperatures in a residential yard used for exercising dogs were measured and evaluated. The study involved four environments (sunny and dry, sunny and watered, shaded and dry, and shaded and watered), each with three measurement spots (green grass, brown grass, and bare ground). Measurements were made at two-hour intervals from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on August 15, 2020. Air temperatures ranged from 82.4 °F at 8:00 a.m. to 100.8 °F at 6:00 p.m. Ground temperatures varied considerably more, from 80.9 °F at bare ground in a shaded and watered spot at 8:00 a.m. to 148.2 °F at brown grass in a sunny and dry spot at 4:00 p.m. Over all times, median temperature ranged from 86.0 °F (range 80.9-87.9 °F) at bare ground in a shaded and watered spot to 125.4 °F (range 86.0-142.8 °F) at bare ground in a sunny and dry spot. For all spots, median ground temperature ranged from 82.6 °F (range 80.9-86.3 °F) at 8:00 a.m. to 128.0 °F (range 87.0-143.7 °F) at 2:00 p.m.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science (JAAWS) publishes articles on methods of experimentation, husbandry, and care that demonstrably enhance the welfare of nonhuman animals in various settings. For administrative purposes, manuscripts are categorized into the following four content areas: welfare issues arising in laboratory, farm, companion animal, and wildlife/zoo settings. Manuscripts of up to 7,000 words are accepted that present new empirical data or a reevaluation of available data, conceptual or theoretical analysis, or demonstrations relating to some issue of animal welfare science. JAAWS also publishes brief research reports of up to 3,500 words that consist of (1) pilot studies, (2) descriptions of innovative practices, (3) studies of interest to a particular region, or (4) studies done by scholars who are new to the field or new to academic publishing. In addition, JAAWS publishes book reviews and literature reviews by invitation only.
