第九届 环境 系统网络和技术 国际会议
2018/1/10
The 9th International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks and Technologies (ANT-2018) is a leading international conference for researchers and industry practitioners to share their new ideas, ori...
'Zombie ant' brains left intact by fungal parasite(图)
Zombie ant brains left intact fungal parasite
2017/11/23
A fungal parasite that infects ants and manipulates their behavior to benefit the fungus' reproduction accomplishes this feat without infecting the ants' brains, according to a study led by Penn State...
Scientists discover spring-loaded mechanism in unusual species of trap-jaw ant(图)
scientists spring-loaded mechanism trap-jaw ant
2017/9/19
Researchers reveal how a group of trap-jaw ants can snap their jaws shut at speeds of up to 50 miles per hour – just fast enough to capture their elusive prey.
They report their findings in the Journ...
Ant Agricultural Revolution Began 30 Million Years Ago in Dry,Desert-like Climate
Ant Agricultural Revolution 30 Million Years Ago in Dry Desert-like Climate
2017/4/27
Millions of years before humans discovered agriculture, vast farming systems were thriving beneath the surface of the Earth. The subterranean farms, which produced various types of fungi, were cultiva...
Intermediate disturbance promotes invasive ant abundance
Linepithema humile Urban–rural gradient
2015/12/10
Urban habitats are undergoing a faunal and floral homogenization process worldwide. We investigated
how such homogenization influences ant communities. We monitored ant species richness a...
Protection Mutualisms and the Community: Geographic Variation in an Ant-Plant Symbiosis and the Consequences for Herbivores
Ant-plant mutualism Azteca context
2015/12/10
Protection mutualisms mediate trophic interactions in many systems, but their effects
on the surrounding community are rarely studied. Ant-plant symbioses are classic
examples of protection mutual...
Aggression is task dependent in the red harvester ant (Pogonomyrmex barbatus)
task dependent red harvester ant
2015/12/10
In many animal species, the propensity for aggression is linked to social context. In social insects, aggressive interactions
between colonies are related to the assessment of cuticular hydrocarbon ...
The rewards of restraint in the collective regulation of foraging by harvester ant colonies
collective regulation harvester ant colonies
2015/12/10
Collective behaviour, arising from local interactions1
, allows
groups to respond to changing conditions. Long-term studies have
shown that the traits of individual mammals and birds are associated...
Chemical Defense by the Native Winter Ant (Prenolepis imparis) against the Invasive Argentine Ant (Linepithema humile)
Chemical Defense Native Winter Ant
2015/12/10
The invasive Argentine ant (Linepithema humile) is established worldwide and displaces native ant species. In northern
California, however, the native winter ant (Prenolepis imparis) persists in inva...
Nest site and weather affect the personality of harvester ant colonies
Nest site and weather harvester ant colonies
2015/12/10
Environmental conditions and physical constraints both influence an animal’s behavior. We investigate whether behavioral
variation among colonies of the black harvester ant, Messor andrei, rema...
Modeling the spread of the Argentine ant into natural areas: Habitat suitability and spread from neighboring sites
Invasion model Grid-based model
2015/12/10
To predict a fine-scale invasion of Argentine ants (Linepithema humile) into a natural area from the surrounding suburban matrix, we introduce a grid-based invasion model, similar to a cellular ...
GIS-BASED ROUTE FINDING USING ANT COLONY OPTIMIZATION AND URBAN TRAFFIC DATA FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES
Route Finding Ant Colony Optimization Urban Traffic Data Floating Car Data Video Vehicle Detection
2016/1/15
Nowadays traffic data is obtained from multiple sources including GPS, Video Vehicle Detectors (VVD), Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR), Floating Car Data (FCD), VANETs, etc. All such data can...
Ecological requirements of some ant species of the genus Formica (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) in spruce forests
Formica ecological requirements spruce forests
2015/3/17
Five types of stand stages (clearings-samplings, plantations, thinnings, thickets, and mature forests) of spruce forests were examined at the foothills of the Jizerské hory Mts. in summer 2005 and 200...
TURNING UP THE HEAT ON THE LITTLE THINGS THAT RUN THE WORLD: EVALUATING THE IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON ANT BIODIVERSITY IN THE TEMPERATE FOREST COMMUNITIES OF THE NORTHEASTERN UNITED STATES
Biodiversity Climate Change Ants Ecology Biogeography Macroecology
2014/12/18
Climatic change threatens biodiversity worldwide. In the forests of the northeastern United States, climate change is expected to increase mean annual temperatures by up to 4.5˚C and change preci...
