Popis: The purpose of the present investigation was to evaluate the effectiveness of the whole-body Naval Clothing and Textile Research Facility experimental- immersion suit (NAVCLO) in maintaining normal body temperatures in naval personnel performing simulated flooding repair activities in cold water. Preliminary evaluations were also conducted on subjects wearing the Marine Corps (MARCOR) experimental-immersion suit, and MultiFabs Survival (MULFAB) suit. These were compared with subjects wearing NAVCLO and those wearing coveralls, cotton T-shirt, shorts, and socks which represented the control (CON) condition.
