Dynamics of foraging trails in the Neotropical termite Velocitermes heteropterus (Isoptera: Termitidae)
(Elsevier B. V., 2015)
Foraging behavior in termites varies with the feeding habits of each species but often occurs through the formation of well-defined trails that connect the nest to food sources in species that build structured nests. We ...
The effect of trail length on task partitioning in three Acromyrmex species (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)
(2003-05-19)
By comparing the behavior of three Acromyrmex (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) species during foraging on artificial trails of different lengths, we observed the occurrence of task partitioning and its relation to the food distance ...
Low‐altitude meteor trail echoes
(American Geophysical Union, 2009-11-12)
We present here the first observations of a new type of meteor echo. These Low‐Altitude Trail Echoes (LATE), observed almost exclusively below 90 km altitude using the Jicamarca Research Observatory 50 MHz radar, exhibit ...
Modeling long duration meteor trails
(American Geophysical Union, 2007-12-29)
We constructed a model of the plasma evolution of meteor trails in order to simulate high‐power‐large‐aperture radar observations. This model follows meteor evolution from ablation and ionization to head echo formation and ...
Diurnal variation of non-specular meteor trails
(European Geosciences Union, 2009-05-04)
We present results of simulated radar observations of meteor trails in an effort to show how non-specular meteor trails are expected to vary as a function of a number of key atmospheric, ionospheric and meteoroid parameters. ...

(2003-05-19)
By comparing the behavior of three Acromyrmex (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) species during foraging on artificial trails of different lengths, we observed the occurrence of task partitioning and its relation to the food distance ...
Aspect sensitivity considerations in determining day‐to‐night variations in meteor trail durations
(American Geophysical Union, 2009-11-24)
Recently there has been an interest in the day‐to‐night variations in the duration of non‐specular meteor trails or Range Spread Trail Echoes (RSTE). The reported differences between the day and night durations of meteor ...
