《自然通讯》的研究发现,飞蛾和昆虫会因人造光而迷失方向并改变其轨道,从而导致光污染导致昆虫数量下降。 Study in Nature Communications finds that moths and insects are disoriented by artificial light and alter their orbits, contributing to insect population decline due to light pollution.
《自然通讯》杂志上发表的一项研究揭穿了人们普遍的误解,即飞蛾等昆虫会被光吸引。 A study published in the journal Nature Communications has debunked the common misconception that insects, such as moths, are attracted to light. 相反,研究发现昆虫会因人造光源而迷失方向,导致它们以不寻常的轨道和转向模式飞行。 Instead, the study found that insects become disoriented by artificial light sources, leading them to fly in unusual orbits and steering patterns. 随着光污染的加剧,了解人造光对昆虫的影响至关重要,因为它会导致全球昆虫数量的减少。 As light pollution increases, understanding the impact of artificial light on insects is crucial, as it contributes to the decline of global insect populations.
