Thirst, being a delayed sign of dehydration, emphasizes the need to keep hydration up, especially during lengthy physical activities.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases.
