Prey can detect predators via electroreception in air - data

This dataset corresponds to the publication "Prey can detect predators via electroreception in air" by England & Robert, published in PNAS in 2024. It contains data on the net electrostatic charges of common wasps (Vespula vulgaris) and three species of caterpillar (Aglais io, Tyria jacobaeae, & Telochurus recens). It also contains behavioural data for each of these caterpillar species, showing that they respond defensively to the electric field of their predators. Lastly, it contains laser Doppler vibrometry data for Tyria jacobaeae, & Telochurus recens, showing that the setae respond mechanically to electric fields at the frequency of their predators' wingbeats, and that they have an electromechanical resonance around this frequency. The data for each experiment are held in separate .csv files, that can be accessed using R, Microsoft Excel, or any other software capable of interpreting comma-separated value text files.本数据集对应2024年发表于《美国国家科学院院刊》（Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences，简称PNAS）的英格兰与罗伯特的研究论文《猎物可通过空气中的电感知能力侦测天敌》（原文标题："Prey can detect predators via electroreception in air"）。数据集包含普通黄胡蜂（Vespula vulgaris）以及三种鳞翅目幼虫——孔雀蛱蝶（Aglais io）、千里光蛾（Tyria jacobaeae）与Telochurus recens——的净静电电荷相关数据。同时包含上述三种幼虫的行为学数据，结果表明它们会对天敌产生的电场做出防御性响应。此外，数据集还包含针对千里光蛾（Tyria jacobaeae）与Telochurus recens的激光多普勒振动计（laser Doppler vibrometry）数据，结果显示其体表刚毛可随天敌翼振频率的电场产生机械响应，且在该频率附近存在机电共振现象。每项实验的数据均存储于独立的逗号分隔值（Comma-Separated Values，CSV）文件中，可通过R语言、Microsoft Excel或其他支持解析逗号分隔值文本文件的软件读取。
