Phenology of Kleptobiotic Sundew Bugs Tracks Peak Stickiness of Their Carnivorous Host Plants
ABSTRACT Drosera L. (Droseraceae) is a diverse genus of carnivorous plants that is cosmopolitan in distribution, with Australia its centre of diversity (ca. 160 species in Australia).

This naturally evolves with temperature, humidity, wind, preparation, and contact between the equipment and its surface. Together, these factors continuously rebalance the forces of gravity, aerodynamic drag, and friction ...

Predictive equations using heart rate (HR) are commonly used, but overlook exercise intensity domains, and reduced accuracy is shown, particularly for females.
