Swarming is a honeybee colony’s way of reproducing. When a hive grows too large, the old queen and about half the workers leave to start a new nest. Before finding a permanent home, the swarm temporarily clusters on a nearby branch or structure in a gathering called a bivouac. #nature #biology #wildlife #insects #bees #ecology #science

ACADEMIC HELP NEEDED

I have an at-risk scholar who needs help finding free journals to submit his work to. He researches rare marine & bird species. He has been taken advantage of by predatory journals.

Any recommendations for FREE journals (or journals that would make special provisions for Palestinians in Gaza) are so appreciated.

Soil people, would it be right to say that people imagining that northern latitudes will receive a bounty from global heating are foolish fantasists?

In the sense that land that has relatively poor soils due to millennia of frigid conditions does not suddenly become bounteous?

А resurrection experiment reveals reduced adaptive potential in a common agricultural weed | Evolution Letters
According to a study by scientists from the University of Michigan, instead of prioritizing adaptation to climate change, some species, such as morning glories, are forced to develop traits aimed at attracting insects, even if this compromises their survival in the face of rising temperatures.
In a relatively short period of time, the rate of adaptation in the morning glory population decreased by 96%. The scientists discovered that the slowdown in adaptation is due to a conflict between two beneficial traits: increasing flower size to attract rare, increasingly scarce pollinators, and earlier flowering to adapt to changes in temperature and precipitation.
In the studied populations, these traits became tightly interrelated, with selection for larger flowers taking precedence over climate adaptation.
Despite significant genetic diversity, the plants are reaching a kind of evolutionary impasse. Due to declining insect populations caused by deforestation and the widespread use of pesticides in agriculture, morning glories are devoting resources to attracting pollinators, losing their ability to respond to warming.
This is what most often happens in life and evolution: not absolute perfection, but the choice of something that allows one to survive and self-actualize with a greater probability.
