Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the correlation between temperature and the development of insects. This relationship had previously been noted and studied, but the author sought to determine whether a constant threshold of development could be experimentally demonstrated and, if so, the method for its determination. The author also sought to answer to what extent a constant thermal constantā"the total of effective temperatures expressed over the period of developmental timeā"could be established for different species, and to compare the effects of constant versus variable temperatures on growth and development. The book draws on previous research in the field of insect development and includes an array of tables and graphs that provide experimental data to support the discussion. The author concludes that a constant threshold of development can be determined and that the thermal constant does provide a useful framework for understanding insect development across different constant temperatures.
