US scientists exposed dogs to the scents of four different explosives in differing levels of heat and humidity.
Dogs whose abilities were affected the most were those whose bodies heated up the most when the temperature was high, the experts say.
Smokeless powder detection was reduced under all environmental conditions other than the standard conditions.
Composition C4 was least detectable at low temperatures with high humidity.
