Evidence for Ventilation through Collective Respiratory Movements in Giant Honeybee (Apis dorsata) Nests

The Asian giant honeybees (Apis dorsata) build single-comb nests in the open, which makes this species particularly susceptible to environmental strains. Long-term infrared (IR) records documented cool nest regions (CNR) at the bee curtain (n(CNR) = 207, n(nests) > 20) distinguished by marked neg...
