Individual reflectance of solar radiation confers a thermoregulatory benefit to dimorphic males bees (Centris pallida) using distinct microclimates. [PDF]
Incoming solar radiation (wavelengths 290 – 2500 nm) significantly affects an organism’s thermal balance via radiative heat gain. Species adapted to different environments can differ in solar reflectance profiles.
