Short-term thermoregulatory adjustments to ambient temperature changes in the rabbit. I. Theoretical model

A model of thermoregulation is proposed, based on additive features found both in the processing of thermal information and in the interaction between thermoregulation and other vegetative functions. According to this model, it may be expected that, if temperature changes are induced in some thermal inputs, other thermal inputs will show specular temperature changes. The model has been experimentally tested.
