Light ambulation increases maximal skin wettedness in humans.
“During LightAmb in Y, ωmax ranged from 0.53 to 1.10 but was higher compared to MinAct only in hot-dry environments (P < 0.0001).”
Human trialUnacclimated young adults; light ambulation versus minimal activity in hot-dry environmentsskin~250 W versus ~150 Wn = 51
