The rhythmic variations in the water evaporation rate (gm-2h-1,) from the dorsal side of the forearm have been studied. The evaporation rate is estimated by calculating the difference between the vapour pressures at two distinct points on a line perpendicular to the evaporative surface. Using autocorrelation technique it is found that the evaporation rate is periodic with a period of around 0.7 s. This value is consistent, at rest as well as prior to profuse sweating in exercise, for all the subjects included in the investigation. During profuse sweating the period becomes slightly longer. It is suggested that the variations in the evaporation rate reflect the periodic activity in the sudomotor nerves.
