It would take 50 billion bees to light an LED light, but the insects can still generate quite a buzz.
and demonstrates how this type of electricity can shape weather events, help insects find food, and even lift spiders up in the air when they migrate.“We study how different organisms use the static electric fields that are virtually everywhere in the environment,” study first author Ellard Hunting, a biologist at the University of Bristol, says in an email to. “For instance, flowers have an electric field and bees can sense these fields.
The team found that honeybee hive swarms change the atmospheric electricity by 100 to 1,000 volts per meter, which increases the electric field force that is normally experienced at ground level rather than in the air. They then developed a a model that can predict the electrical influence of other species of insects. When comparing thunderstorms and other weather events with the the bees’ highest charge, the authors found that a dense swarm of bees had a higher electric charge.
. “We also calculated the influence of locusts on atmospheric electricity, as locusts swarm on biblical scales, sizing 460 square miles with 80 million locusts in less than a square mile; their influence is likely much greater than honeybees.”The bees most likely acquire their charge through the friction they face during flight.
