Bumble bee nest thermoregulation: a field study
Journal of Apicultural Research, 2023 Careful control of brood temperature is important for successful colony development in social insects. Six bumble bee colonies of six common Central European species (B. hypnorum, B. hortorum, B. argillaceus, B. pascuorum, B. humilis, B.

Fetal liver blood flow distribution: role in human developmental strategy to prioritize fat deposition versus brain development [PDF]
, 2012 Among primates, human neonates have the largest brains but also the highest proportion of body fat. If placental nutrient supply is limited, the fetus faces a dilemma: should resources be allocated to brain growth, or to fat deposition for use as a ...

Modelling the emergence of rodent filial huddling from physiological huddling [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 Huddling behaviour in neonatal rodents reduces the metabolic costs of physiological thermoregulation. However, animals continue to huddle into adulthood, at ambient temperatures where they are able to sustain a basal metabolism in isolation from the ...

Li4Ti5O12: A Visible-to-Infrared Broadband Electrochromic Material for Optical and Thermal Management [PDF]
Advanced Functional Materials, 2018, 28, 1802180, 2019 Broadband electrochromism from visible to infrared wavelengths is attractive for applications like smart windows, thermal-camouflage, and temperature control. In this work, the broadband electrochromic properties of Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) and its suitability for infrared-camouflage and thermoregulation are investigated.

Real-time nanodiamond thermometry probing in-vivo thermogenic responses [PDF]
Science Advances 6, eaba9636 (2020), 2020 Real-time temperature monitoring inside living organisms provides a direct measure of their biological activities, such as homeostatic thermoregulation and energy metabolism. However, it is challenging to reduce the size of bio-compatible thermometers down to submicrometers despite their potential applications for the thermal imaging of subtissue ...

Evolutionary Ecology of Lizards [PDF]
, 2022 Except for latitudinal and elevational extremes, lizards range across a vast variety of biotopes worldwide, including environments as disparate as deserts, prairies, temperate woodlands, rainforests, or anthropic habitats. Although most species thrive on
