Thermal adaptation generates a diversity of thermal limits in a rainforest ant community.
The Thermal Adaptation Hypothesis posits that the warmer, aseasonal tropics generates populations with higher and narrower thermal limits. It has largely been tested among populations across latitudes. However, considerable thermal heterogeneity exists within ecosystems: across 31 trees in a Panama rainforest, surfaces exposed to sun were 8 °C warmer and varied more in temperature than surfaces...
متن کاملOPTIMIZATION-BASED MONITORING-SUPPORTED CALIBRATION OF A THERMAL PERFORMANCE SIMULATION MODEL
Building performance simulation is being increasingly deployed beyond the building design phase to support efficient building operation. Specifically, the predictive feature of the simulation-assisted building systems control strategy provides distinct advantages in view of building systems with high latency and inertia. Such advantages can be exploited only if model predictions can be relied u...
متن کاملAnalysis of Heat transfer in Porous Fin with Temperature-dependent Thermal Conductivity and Internal Heat Generation using Chebychev Spectral Collocation Method
In this work, analysis of heat transfer in porous fin with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and internal heat generation is carried out using Chebychev spectral collocation method. The numerical solutions are used to investigate the influence of various parameters on the thermal performance of the porous fin. The results show that increase in convective parameter, porosity parameter, ...
متن کاملAn adaptive estimation method to predict thermal comfort indices man using car classification neural deep belief
Human thermal comfort and discomfort of many experimental and theoretical indices are calculated using the input data the indicator of climatic elements are such as wind speed, temperature, humidity, solar radiation, etc. The daily data of temperature، wind speed، relative humidity، and cloudiness between the years 1382-1392 were used. In the First step، Tmrt parameter was calculated in the Ray...
متن کاملUsing physiology to predict the responses of ants to climatic warming.
Physiological intolerance of high temperatures places limits on organismal responses to the temperature increases associated with global climatic change. Because ants are geographically widespread, ecologically diverse, and thermophilic, they are an ideal system for exploring the extent to which physiological tolerance can predict responses to environmental change. Here, we expand on simple mod...
