Even on a clear day, Earth’s atmosphere holds a vertical electric field of about 120 volts per metre; around plants and in unsettled weather it can grow far stronger, and tiny spiders sense it through hairs on their legs to decide when to release silk and fly.

10+ min ago   (1647+ words) Controlled experiments show that atmospheric-strength electric fields move spiders' sensory hairs and can prompt ballooning behavior, although wind remains the dominant force.

Insect traps set at 6 sites across a southeast Wyoming wind range caught bees in 95 of every 100 catches and found no pattern near the turbines, while the groups a blade is most likely to strike were barely sampled

13+ hour, 50+ min ago   (728+ words) Every survey method has an opinion about what counts as an insect. A trap does not sample the air. It samples whatever that particular trap is good at catching, and nothing else is ever in the data. Which means the…...
