Lab 3, Pan Traps

Group Memebers ; Karin Yosefi, Joelle Brooker, Kamil Adamczewski, Brittney Jorisch Layed ifferent coloured pans(blue,white and yellow) out along York University grasslot an woodlot along a 18 meter transact, each pan about 1 meter apart. Filled them with soapy water and let them sit an collect bugs for about a hour, then the number of insects in the pans was counted and the different recognizable taxonomic units were also counted. The experiment took place at Danby's lot between 3:00pm and 4:20pm on Thursday,October 1 on a chilly windy day, with the sun out and the temperature was aproximately15 egress celsius. Purpose of the lab was to see which colour pan collected the most bugs.

实验小组成员：Karin Yosefi、Joelle Brooker、Kamil Adamczewski、Brittney Jorisch。研究团队在约克大学的草地样地与林地带中，沿18米样带（transect）布设了蓝、白、黄三种颜色的诱虫盘（pan），各诱虫盘间距约1米。随后向盘中注入肥皂水，静置约1小时以收集昆虫，之后对诱虫盘中的昆虫个体数量及可识别的不同分类单元（taxonomic units）数量分别进行计数。本实验于10月1日周四下午3:00至4:20在丹比样地开展，当日天气寒冷多风、阳光充足，气温约15摄氏度。本次实验的目的为探究何种颜色的诱虫盘可收集到最多昆虫。
