The Influence of Antarctic Environment on Sleep in Man : Part 1. Environmental Factors and States of Sleep (Biology and Medical Science)
P(論文) Five healthy male subjects, selected from the Japanese wintering group, were studied to obtain the information about not only the long-term changes in sleep patterns but also the relationship between sleep patterns and prominent environmental factors, presumably affecting sleep patterns.
