Polarized light in animal vision : polarization patterns in nature
Gábor Horváth,Dezsö Varjú +1 more
TL;DR: Horvath and Varju as discussed by the authors presented a short introduction into imaging polarimetry, an efficient technique for measuring light polarization, and various polarization patterns occurring in nature, including the polarizational characteristics of water surfaces, mirages and the underwater light field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polarization pattern of freshwater habitats recorded by video polarimetry in red, green and blue spectral ranges and its relevance for water detection by aquatic insects
Gábor Horváth,Dezsö Varjú +1 more
TL;DR: The simple technique of rotating-analyzer video polarimetry is described and its advantages and disadvantages are discussed, and it is shown that the polarization patterns of small water bodies are very variable in the different spectral ranges depending on the illumination conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Underwater refraction-polarization patterns of skylight perceived by aquatic animals through Snell's window of the flat water surface
Gábor Horváth,Dezsö Varjú +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided a quantitative account of the repolarization of skylight transmitted through a flat water surface and calculated the shape of the refraction-polarization oval at the air-water interface as functions of the polarization characteristics and the incident angle of partially linearly polarized incoming light.
Journal ArticleDOI
The regulation of distance to dummy flowers during hovering flight in the hawk moth Macroglossum stellatarum
TL;DR: While collecting nectar in hovering flight the European hawk moth Macroglossum stellatarum efficiently regulates its distance relative to flowers that are shaken by wind using a servo mechanism underlying distance regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
What do foraging honeybees optimize
Dezsö Varjú,J. Nunez +1 more
TL;DR: Whether the bees' partial crop filling optimizes the relation between gained and consumed energy during foraging, or whether they are driven by an information demand which can be satisfied by returning to the hive with partially filled crop is discussed.
