Seasonal wing dimorphism and life cycle of the mole cricket Gryllotalpa orientalis (Orthoptera: Gryllotalpidae)

Control of seasonal wing dimorphism in the oriental mole cricket Gryllotalpa orientalis Brumeister (1839) from a wetland habitat in western Japan is described.The long-winged (LW) morph appeared from mid-June to September, whereas the short-winged (SW) morph appeared from September to mid-June.Individuals overwintered in either the adult or juvenil

Instantaneous Metabolic Energetics: Data-Driven Modeling Using Function-Based Surrogates and Gradient Boosting

Objective: Current methods for measuring metabolic energy expenditure (MEE) constrain experiment design and only provide time-averaged values.We propose a novel two-stage predictive model using surrogate learners in the first stage for physiological dynamics and gradient-boosted regression trees g5210t-p90 in the second stage to learn a generalized
