Tsk (HD: 36.28 ± 0.67°C, WH: 35.89 ± 0.70°C; p = .030, ηp² = .465) and EHL (HD: 450 ± 53 W, WH: 319 ± 30 W; p < .001, ηp² = .932) were greater in HD, whereas DHL was greater in WH (HD: −80 ± 25 W; WH: 48 ± 25 W; p < .001, ηp² = .950). Conclusion: Despite similar heat storage and cardiovascular strain, matched-WBGT environments altered the mechanisms of heat exchange. Thus, ambient temperature, humidity, and workload should be considered alongside WBGT when monitoring heat strain and selecting heat-mitigation strategies.ConclusionDespite similar heat storage and cardiovascular strain, matched-WBGT environments altered the mechanisms of heat exchange.
