The meeting began at 8:00 a.m. on August 16th with self-introductions by the meeting participants. Presentations of the W-173 and NCR-131 members were made to apprise participants of the current research and multistate collaborative activities. D. Hamernik and R. Rennells (USDA-CSREES) then made presentations on current USDA activities. At 4:00 the W-173 and NCR-131 groups split to conduct their business meetings. In the W-173 business meeting the previous years minutes were approved, J. Arthington (FL) was named secretary and A. Parkhurst (NE) Chair of W-173 for 2002-2003. A decision was made to meet next year in Omaha. This was followed by a reception and dinner. On August 17th a tour of the new Agricultural Research Complex was conducted at 8:00 a.m. followed by a return to the meeting to conclude presentations. The meeting adjourned at 12:00 pm on August 17th
Accomplishments
Note that the principal reporting investigator and their location is indicated in relation to the stated accomplishment and subsequent impact. However, in almost all cases these are multistate collaborative projects that involve one or more W-173 participants. This is reflected in the List of Publications and Plans for the Coming Year sections that follow the Accomplishments and Impacts.
Objective I: Identify appropriate measures of animal stress and well-being and
characterize factors affecting the biology of the stress response
*Accomplishment: Cornell University (Hillman, Gebremedhin) developed sensitive equipment for accurately measuring heat transfer across hair coats in cattle. Impact:
Accurate measure of heat transfer will provide us with the information needed to design effective shelters and recommend appropriate husbandry to maximize the well-being and productivity of dairy cows.
*Accomplishment: The USDA-MARC (Brown-Brandl) and University of Kentucky (Gates) have collaborated with others to evaluate a telemetry system for measuring core body temperature in livestock and poultry Impact: Successful adoption of a body temperature monitoring system for livestock will greatly improve ability to manage livestock during periods of thermal stress
*Accomplishment: The University of Kentucky (Gates) successfully monitored water consumption by grazing cattle in central Kentucky during warm summer months. Impact: The findings from this research are directly applicable for design of portable seasonal water systems used in rotational grazing of livestock.
*Accomplishment: The University of Nebraska (Parkhurst, Mader) University of Missouri (Spiers) and USDA-MARC collaborated on studies to define the heat stress threshold. Analysis of a number of data sets indicated the presence of hysteresis that calls into question the meaning of threshold-biologically and management wise.

*Accomplishment: The University of Nebraska (Parkhurst, Mader) University of Missouri (Spiers) and USDA-MARC collaborated on studies to define the heat stress threshold. Analysis of a number of data sets indicated the presence of hysteresis that calls into question the meaning of threshold-biologically and management wise. A number of criteria were identified for further evaluation including the transition threshold, challenge threshold, initial and terminal recovery thresholds. Impact: Results of this work will improve our ability to define the presence or absence of thermal stress in livestock.
*Accomplishment: The University of Missouri (Spiers) and the University of Arizona (Collier) are collaborating to produce gene expression array data from a variety of tissues in dairy cattle subjected to thermal stress. Impact: Results of this work will identify genes associated with sensitivity to and/or resistance to thermal stress in livestock. These results can then be used to identify cattle that are resistant or sensitive to thermal stress.
*Accomplishment: The University of Arizona (Collier) has evaluated use of infrared thermography by infrared camera and gun for evaluation of thermal stress in cattle. Impact: Data indicate that an infrared thermography gun is a low cost tool that successfully identifies animals in need of additional cooling. These results can be directly applied to management of dairy cows during periods of thermal stress.
*Accomplishment: The University of Nebraska (Mader) and USDA-MARC have collaborated to model effects of environmental stressors on thermoregulatory responses and feed intake patterns in beef cattle. Data was utilized from studies conducted in environmental chambers t USDA-MARC. Impact: Results of this research will be directly applicable to management of feedlot cattle during periods of thermal stress.
1. Kentucky-water estimates in grazing cattle
2. Missouri-seaweed extract
3. Missouri-fescue toxicosis
4. Nebraska-Maeder estimates of heat loss
5. Indiana and Mississippi-pre-milking
Objective II: Evaluate management strategies that minimize the detrimental effects
of animal stress
*Accomplishment: Cornell University (Hillman,Gebremedhin) in collaboration with the University of Hawaii (Lee) and Mississippi State University (Willard) have developed a new cooling system for lactating dairy cows in free stalls. Results demonstrated improved cooling of cows and cows spent a greater time in the stalls lying down. Impact: A new strategy has been developed for reducing heat stress in cattle housed in free stalls.
*Accomplishment: Kentucky (Gates) and Iowa (Xin) collaborated to evaluate effects of partial surface wetting to relieve heat stress of poultry. During this research the investigators also developed thermal discomfort index for laying hens subjected to acute thermal stress. Impact: Results of this research are directly applicable to improved management of poultry during periods of thermal stress.
*Accomplishment: The University of Missouri (Spiers) evaluated use of a seaweed extract to reduce impact of fescue toxicosis during periods of heat stress Impact: The results are potentially useful in management of cattle in areas were fescue toxicosis is a summer management issue.
