Abstract
An extension is made of Lee's (1950) original discussion of the heat balance of sheep exposed to a tropical sun. Methods are given for calculating the two quantities, convective heat loss and long-wave radiation exchange, which automatically compensate to a large extent for the added heat load. There appear to be advantages in distinguishing between the heat balance of the fleece and that of the body of the sheep, and this provides a method of estimating the heat conducted to the body as a consequence of the insolation.
