How the thermal environment shapes the structure of termite mounds

A computational model has been developed to predict the role of environment in the forms and functions of termite mounds. The proposed model considers the most relevant forces involved in the heat transfer process of termite mounds, while also reflecting their gas-exchange function. The method adopt...
