Sentence examples for the flight activity from inspiring English sources

Many studies have been published on the flight activity of stored grain beetles in temperate regions, but few have focussed on tropical and sub-tropical regions.

Rowland and Lindsay [10] studied the flight activity of females of this species infected with the filarial parasite Brugia pahangi and observed a decrease in flight capacity in heavily-infected mosquitoes under laboratory conditions.

Each behavioural assay consisted of an 8 h recording of the flight activity for each individual.

Several studies have reported the influence of light on the flight activity of mosquitoes [ 11- 13, 20, 21], while there is no comprehensive information available on the regulation of the mosquito's blood-feeding behavior by light, at least at the molecular level.

Thus, the positive relationship between mosquito activation and time simply reflects the natural circadian flight activity, the process by which hungry females of An. gambiae engage in non-oriented flight to optimise their chance of encountering host stimuli [44].

A several-year study from Hill et al. (2014) using vertically rotating marine radar even suggests that the highest flight activity appears below 200 m over all seasons.

While previous studies have described the A. gambiae flight activity during the night time and during the twilight [ 11, 12], here we provide insight into the molecular components and mechanisms that regulate the blood feeding behavior.

The pattern of flight activity of the two beetles in Ghana, across 11 months of the year, was investigated using a novel flight trap that separates catch at 3-h intervals.

It has been shown that the A. gambiae flight activity peaks during the night time and during the twilight [ 11].

The lack of flight activity or missile launches also leads us to conclude that the regime used rockets in the attack.

By using the signature of recorded flight activity performed during the post-hatching period, we found the set of parameters (figure 1) giving the best description of the shape of trace in relation to time, and they were programmed in a purpose-designed software for the extraction of all flights performed by each female.
