ACCELERATED ADAPTATION OF MARINES TO LOW-LATITUDES NAVIGATION
The paper discusses field trials of two approaches to acceleration of adaptation of marines to low-latitudes navigation, which is associated with intensive physical activity at high temperatures. When only physical exercises were used for training, adaptation to the above conditions was accomplished by the end of the second month of navigation. Ergothermic training exercised prior to entering the low latitudes ensured preservation of professional workability at the very onset and all over the time of navigation in tropics.
