摘要
The thermal imaging method was used to monitor thermal processes in the inter-comb bee clusters and temperature of different body parts during the wintering period. The temperature of different body parts was found to depend on the localization of bees in the nest and the external temperature. The dependence of the thermoregulatory activity of bees on the external temperature fluctuations decreased during wintering. The trends of distribution of thermal fields in clusters of wintering bees are revealed. © 2011 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.
