Will co-authors new paper on ant thermal limits

Check out the new paper that Will contributed to, published in Journal of Thermal Biology: “Automating thermal limits: continuous, objective, and high-throughput thermal data for small mobile ectotherms” Current methods for measuring the thermal limits of small ectotherms (like insects) focus exclusively on thermal extremes. This paper advances beyond this using locomotor activity monitoring, which generates continuous,ContinueContinue reading “Will co-authors new paper on ant thermal limits”
