The diversity of aquatic insects surrounding the gold mining areas of central sulawesi and their relation with mercury levels and water quality

Jurnal Entomologi Indonesia, 2022
Human activities may influence the diversity of aquatic insects in rivers. This study aims to assess the diversity of aquatic insects and their relation with mercury levels and water quality along rivers located near the gold mine in Poboya, Central ...

Influence of wing kinematics on aerodynamic performance in hovering insect flight [PDF]

, 2007
The influence of different wing kinematic models on the aerodynamic performance of a hovering insect is investigated by means of two-dimensional time-dependent Navier–Stokes simulations.

First record of Polypedilum mehinaku (Chironomidae) galls induced in the aquatic angiosperm Mourera fluviatilis (Podostemaceae) for Bahia, Brazil [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
Galls induced by insects on aquatic angiosperms are rare and poorly understood. To expand our knowledge of these galls on aquatic host plants and update the distribution of their gall-inducing insect, we present the first record of Polypedilum mehinaku ...

Stream network geometry and the spatial influence of aquatic insect subsidies across the contiguous United States

Ecosphere, 2019
Emergent aquatic insects transport aquatic‐derived resources into terrestrial ecosystems but are rarely studied at landscape or regional scales. Here, we investigate how stream network geometry constrains the spatial influence of aquatic insect subsidies

Fatty acid composition differs between emergent aquatic and terrestrial insects—A detailed single system approach

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Emergent insects represent a key vector through which aquatic nutrients are transferred to adjacent terrestrial food webs. Aquatic fluxes of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) from emergent insects are particularly important subsidies for terrestrial ...

The role of emergent vegetation in structuring aquatic insect communities in peatland drainage ditches

, 2014
Availability of macrophyte habitat is recognized as an important driver of aquatic insect communities in peatland drainage ditches; however, eutrophication can lead to the decline of submerged vegetation.

Microfabrication of Soft Millirobots Propelled by Low Voltage Electrohydraulic Actuators

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Manual layer‐by‐layer assembly is replaced by wafer‐level MEMS batch fabrication for compliant polymer‐based electrohydraulic actuators. The microfabricated devices integrate sacrificially defined microcavities, Parylene‐C‐sealed inlets, and multilayer polymer–metal films.
