HotKing dataset: heat stress in breeding king penguins.

This dataset is attached to the research paper "<b>Mind the polar sun: Solar radiations trigger frequent heat stress in breeding king penguins, despite relatively cool air temperatures.</b>", which investigates the heat stress response of cold-adapted king penguins when breeding on land. For this, observations of behavioural thermoregulation of parents while taking care of the egg or chick (panting, wing spreading, exposure of the brood pouch) are confronted to air temperature, solar radiation, wind speed and relative humidity recorded at the colony location. Sub-cutaneous temperatures (from the back of the individuals) are also measured.

本数据集附属于研究论文《<b>留意极地阳光：尽管空气温度相对偏低，太阳辐射仍会诱发繁殖期帝企鹅频繁遭遇热应激</b>》。该研究聚焦于耐寒帝企鹅在陆地繁殖期间的热应激响应机制。为此，研究人员将亲代个体在抚育卵或雏鸟期间的行为性体温调节观测数据（包括喘气、展翼、暴露育雏囊），与繁殖群所在地记录的空气温度、太阳辐射、风速及相对湿度进行对比分析。此外，本数据集还包含了帝企鹅背部的皮下温度测量数据。
