A computer science team has developed a sensor-based technology that could revolutionize commercial beekeeping by reducing colony losses and lowering labor costs. The technology uses low-cost heat ...
Honey bees are well known for maintaining the temperature inside their hives at an optimal level. This precise temperature control is crucial for the healthy development of young bees and the overall ...
Although honey bees have the ability to regulate hive temperatures, new research published in Ecological and Evolutionary Physiology shows that extreme summer heat can overwhelm these critical ...
Honeybees pollinate a third of what people eat and drink, from coffee to almonds, but colonies are on the decline because of extreme weather, pesticides and parasites. Researchers from Carnegie Mellon ...
Commercial beekeepers in Texas know an acceptable loss of bees can be between 13% and 17% from perennial factors like disease or insects, but they have seen a nearly 66% decrease in bee colony ...
Honey bees can normally keep their hives perfectly climate-controlled, but extreme heat can overwhelm their defenses. During a scorching Arizona summer, researchers found that high temperatures caused ...
A UC Riverside computer science team has developed a sensor-based technology that could revolutionize commercial beekeeping by reducing colony losses and lowering labor costs. The paper, "Principled ...
