Thermoregulation of foraging honeybees on flowering plants: seasonal variability and influence of radiative heat gain

1. During nectar and pollen foraging in a temperate climate, honeybees are exposed to a broad range of ambient temperatures, challenging their thermoregulatory ability. The body temperature that the bees exhibit results from endothermic heat production, exogenous heat gain from solar radiation, and...
