AbstractUnderstanding factors that influence attraction of tephritid fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) to objects can lead to development of more sensitive traps for fly detection. Here, the objective was to determine if differences in attractiveness between two sticky yellow rectangle traps to western cherry fruit fly,Rhagoletis indifferensCurran, depend on ambient light intensity and direction. The translucent plastic Yellow Sticky Strip (YSS) was compared with the less translucent yellow cardboard Alpha Scents (AS). Flies were released inside a box or cage opposite a trap or traps illuminated from outside at different intensities to generate variable light passage. Regardless of type, the trap with greatest light passage was most attractive. When the same light intensity was shone on both traps, the YSS, which allowed greater light passage, was more attractive than the AS. When the light was inside a cage and shone onto the two traps in the same direction as approaching flies, the AS reflected more light and was more attractive. A field experiment generally supported light passage effects seen in the laboratory. Results suggest trap placement with respect to sunlight intensity and direction affects light passage and the attractiveness of yellow traps toR. indifferens.

This study aims to make a tool that can monitor the condition of the pH level and water turbidity in fish ponds so that fish growth can be maximized. This fish pond has a control system that can be controlled automatically. The purpose of using this control is to get maximum results and to save water use in fish ponds This tool has two sensors consisting of a TDS-10 sensor which functions to detect the turbidity level of water in fish ponds and a pH sensor which functions to detect the pH level of the water in the fish pond. Comparison with previous research, the application of fish ponds with a size of 3 x 4 meters so that observations about how the tools work and the success rate of the tools can be observed more intensively. In addition, the ESP8266 wifi module is supported as a collaboration monitoring center without the need to come to the location directly Based on the test results of the TDS-10 sensor and pH sensor that have been carried out in the fish pond, the test results show good performance with the proportion of detection error of the TDS-10 sensor (4.8 NTU) to the set point (5 NTU) is 4%.

The temperature dependences of resistance, impedance and capacitance of semitransparent sensor having structure ITO/PTB7-Th:PC[Formula: see text]BM/Graphene composite (semisurface type) were investigated. The transparency of the sensor was 58–60%. The dependences of the resistance, impedance and capacitance at different frequencies 100 Hz, 1 kHz, 10 kHz, 100 kHz and 200 kHz and temperature in the range of 23.8–80[Formula: see text]C for the sensor were studied. It was observed that as the temperature increased from 23.8[Formula: see text]C to 80[Formula: see text]C, the resistance and impedance (at 1 kHz) of the samples decreased, on average, by a factor of 3.51 and 3.79, respectively. At same experimental conditions (1 kHz), the capacitances of the samples also decreased by a factor of 9.6. It was also noted that as frequency increased from 100 Hz to 200 kHz, the impedance of the sensor decreased by a factor of 21 and 12, at temperatures 24[Formula: see text]C and 58[Formula: see text]C, respectively. Under the same conditions, the capacitance decreased by a factor of 30 and 28, respectively. The temperature resistance coefficients were measured to be −1.31%/[Formula: see text]C, −1.30%/[Formula: see text]C, −1.27%/[Formula: see text]C, −0.84%/[Formula: see text]C, −0.72%/[Formula: see text]C and −0.33%/[Formula: see text]C for R, Z (100 Hz), Z (1 kHz), Z (10 kHz), Z (100 kHz) and Z (200 kHz), respectively. For capacitance measurement, the temperature capacitance coefficients were measured as −1.39%/[Formula: see text]C, −1.38%/[Formula: see text]C, −1.37%/[Formula: see text]C, −1.36%/[Formula: see text]C and −1.34%/[Formula: see text]C, respectively. The semitransparent PTB7-Th- and PC[Formula: see text]BM-based temperature sensor can be used for measurement of the temperature as a teaching aid in situations where visual control of illumination and light intensity is required.

The effects of handling time, ambient light intensity, and anaesthetic method, on the collection of spectral reflectance data were assessed in two species of Malawi cichlids ( Melanochromis auratus and Metriaclima zebra ). Using spectrometry, colour patches were measured over 10 min, under increasing ambient light levels, and using three anaesthetic methods. As time elapsed, maximum percent reflectance (Rmax) decreased across all anaesthetic methods and species, suggesting that measurements should be taken immediately after capture and anaesthetization. With increasing light intensity, Rmax increased significantly, suggesting that measurements should be taken under natural ambient conditions when possible. Finally, we found that anaesthetizing fish using an ice bath produced significantly higher Rmax than using either MS-222 (tricaine methanesulphonate) or clove oil (eugenol). However, the highest proportion of ultraviolet (UV) colouration was recorded while fish were anaesthetized with clove oil. Our results highlight the variation involved in measuring fish colour patterns using two related species, and thus indicate the need for a standardized approach to collecting spectral reflectance data in fish.

Ambient light intensity is signaled directly to hypothalamic areas that regulate energy metabolism. Observational studies have shown associations between ambient light intensity and plasma glucose and lipid levels, but human data on the acute metabolic effects of light are scarce. Since light is the main signal indicating the onset of the diurnal phase of physical activity and food intake in humans, we hypothesized that bright light would affect glucose and lipid metabolism. Therefore, we determined the acute effects of bright light on plasma glucose and lipid concentrations in 2 randomized crossover trials: (1) in 8 healthy lean men and (2) in 8 obese men with type 2 diabetes. From 0730 h, subjects were exposed to either bright light (4000 lux) or dim light (10 lux) for 5 h. After 1 h of light exposure, subjects consumed a 600-kcal mixed meal. Primary endpoints were fasting and postprandial plasma glucose levels. In healthy men, bright light did not affect fasting or postprandial plasma glucose levels. However, bright light increased fasting and postprandial plasma triglycerides. In men with type 2 diabetes, bright light increased fasting and postprandial glucose levels. In men with type 2 diabetes, bright light did not affect fasting triglyceride levels but increased postprandial triglyceride levels. We show that ambient light intensity acutely affects human plasma glucose and triglyceride levels. Our findings warrant further research into the consequences of the metabolic effects of light for the diagnosis and prevention of hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia.
