Analysing stormwater temperature at site-specific discharge points along the Liesbeek River, South Africa
… primary research method makes use of Thermocron iButton Temperature Loggers. These were placed in four stormwater outlet pipes, which frequently discharge event-based stormwater runoff into the Liesbeek River. Additionally, iButton loggers were placed in the river channel, to provide a reference …

Thermal and Behavioral Ecology of the Mexican Beaded Lizard (Heloderma horridum)
… and two copper Te models, respectively, using iButton dataloggers. Tb and Te records were used to explore body temperature time series and to estimate the timing of refuge emergence and refuge emergence-immergence intervals. These data support the hypothesis that beaded lizards have a …

Head-start Juvenile and Adult Resident Eastern Box Turtles (Terrapene carolina carolina): Winter Ecology Including Microhabitat Selection, Temperature Tolerance and Philopatry
… during the active and inactive seasons. iButton data loggers were attached to each turtle to record temperature throughout winter. Vegetation data were collected and analyzed to determine if there are microhabitat differences between adult and juvenile turtles, and between occupied and …

The breeding ecology and behavioural adaptations of African black oystercatchers in light of climate change
… variables were obtained either through on-site iButton data loggers or from the relevant South African meteorological agencies. The results show that oystercatchers are vulnerable to increasing heat loads as temperature increases. However, oystercatchers used a suite of thermoregulatory …

Three Factor Authentication Using Java Ring and Biometrics
Computer security is a growing field in the IT industry. One of the important aspects of the computer security is authentication. Using passwords (something you know) is one of the most common ways of authentications. But passwords have proven to provide weak level of security as they can be easily …

The Behavioral and Physiological Effects of Long-Distance Translocation on Western Rattlesnakes (Crotalus oreganus)
… Each was implanted with a radio transmitter and iButton temperature data logger within the coelomic cavity. In late August, seven snakes were translocated to similar habitat, approximately 30 kilometers away, where they were monitored for 9-13 days. Prior to translocation, all snakes were tracked …

AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE SLEEPING PATTERNS OF YOUTH SOCCER PLAYERS DURING THE COMPETITIVE SEASON
… to skin temperature, which was evaluated using iButton skin thermistors. The iButtons were used to establish both distal and proximal skin temperatures. This data was also used to create the distal to proximal gradient (average of distal measures – average of proximal measures = DPG). The data …

Microhabitat, microbiota, mitochondria and the epigenome shape the biparental legacy of heat exposure in a tropical arthropod
… microclimate variation was assessed by placing iButton temperature loggers in three types of microhabitat, frass, side/south, and top/north over two types of trees, fallen and standing, in open canopy or closed canopy habitats. C. scorpioides were then collected from the trees to estimate …
