Science Daily: A U.S.-led team of international biologists says some ants have adjusted to well to urban warming and may help other species adapt to such climate change. The researchers, led by Michael Angilletta of Indiana State University, note large cities can be more than 10 degrees hotter than their surroundings, with such urban heat islands stressing animals and plants. The scientists discovered that ants in Sao Paulo, Brazil, South America’s largest city, can tolerate heat better than …
