Water strider females use individual experience to adjust jumping behaviour to their weight within physical constraints of water surface tension
Different species of water striders match leg speeds to their body sizes to maximize their jump take off velocity without breaking the water surface, which might have aided evolution of leg structures optimized for exploitation of the water surface tension. It is not understood how water striders ac...
