THE EFFECT OF COLONY TRANSLOCATION ON MELIPONARIES OF MELIPONA SCUTELLARIS (L.) (HYMENOPTERA: APIDAE) FROM NORTHEASTERN BRAZIL BY MORPHOGEOMETRIC ANALYSIS

The effect of colony translocation on meliponaries of Melipona scutellaris (L.) (Hymenoptera: Apidae) from northeastern Brazil by morphogeometric analysis

This study investigated the morphometric variation in Melipona scutellaris stingless bees read more rational hive boxes from five states, inserted into the natural range of the species occurrence in northeastern Brazil.The cluster analysis (UPGMA) showed three distinct groups by determining the cutoff point.The multivariate analysis were performed

Bi-Level Unit Commitment Considering Virtual Power Plants and Demand Response Programs using Information Gap Decision Theory

The integration of the distributed energy resources into a single entity can do with virtual power plants.VPP is a cluster of dispatchable and non- dispatchable resource with flexible loads which distributed in allover the grid that aggregated and acts as a unique power plant.Flexible load is able to change the consumption so demand response progra
