Individual Variation Does Not Regulate Foraging Response to Humidity in Harvester Ant Colonies [PDF]
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Differences among groups in collective behavior may arise from responses that all group members share, or instead from differences in the distribution of individuals of particular types. We examined whether the collective regulation of foraging behavior in colonies of the desert red harvester ant (Pogonomyrmex barbatus) depends on individual ...

Potable water generation from atmospheric moisture in coastal areas using the thermoelectric effect
Maritime Research and Technology, 2022 Although water covers more than two-thirds of the globe’s area by a percentage of approximately 70 %, safe potable water is still scarce and therefore many countries where freshwater resources are scarce have directed to conduct many research and studies

A Smart Embedded System for Humid Air Condensation and Water Harvesting
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020 Abstract The people in the south of Iraq in the coastal region of the Arabian Gulf, especially in the Basra government, are suffering from waves of high humidity throughout the year, average annual humidity of 60.6 %. The increment of salinity of the Shatt-Al-Arab river, the main source of the drinking water in this city, effected by the

EFFECT OF HARVEST DATE AND RELATIVE HUMIDITY AFTER HARVEST ON RIPENING OF `LAFRANCE' PEAR FRUITS.
HortScience, 1993 `La France' pear fruits were harvested at weekly intervals for a 3-week period beginning Oct. 8, 1992, 1 week before commercial harvest. On the next day, fruits were stored at 20°C and 55%, 75% or 95% relative humidity (RH). Ethylene production, respiration rate and flesh firmness were determined at harvest and after intervals of storage.
