by the greater change in temperature and sunlight. On arrival in the Gulf group A were exposed to
a
rise in temperature of 12°C and an increase in exposure to sunlight of 1.73 hours. In group B the figures were 19.5°C and 5-22 hours. If temperature were the only cause of increased calcium excretion one would have expected a 12°C rise to have produced an increase in group A, especially as they subsequently responded to the temperature and sunlight experienced by group B with a statistically similar rise in calcium excretion (p
