Heat Production Of Honeybees In Winter (1921)

By Robert Denniston Milner and George S. Demuth

Book Overview

Heat Production of Honeybees in Winter is a scientific study conducted by Robert Denniston Milner in 1921. The book explores the mechanisms by which honeybees generate and regulate heat during the winter months. Milner's research involved measuring the heat output of honeybee colonies in various conditions, including different temperatures and levels of activity. He also examined the role of individual bees in heat production and the effects of honeybee behavior on overall colony temperature. The book provides a detailed analysis of the physiological processes involved in honeybee thermoregulation and offers insights into the complex social dynamics of honeybee colonies. Heat Production of Honeybees in Winter is a valuable resource for researchers and beekeepers interested in understanding the biology of honeybees and their adaptations to winter conditions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
