Small animal that creeps like walking on twigs of trees this has the advantage of a great body. Carpenter Ants is capable of carrying loads of weight 2X to walk away from the branch to the place of others for the sake of bringing the material to survival . Found from an experimental result which according to university researchers in Germany reported the observation of ant nests are made for several years to Live Science. They found that the unusual behavior of ants while before and after the earthquake.
One bodied black ants living around red wood often confusing daily activities around the red wood ant lingkungannya.Menurut Researchers are more active outside the nest to gather food. Ant then break in the nest at night. But when an earthquake of magnitude 3.2, including the range of approximately 32 kilometers from the nest, the ants do not come back at night.
The researchers found, the ants return to activities such as ready times when one day after the earthquake. The researchers then discussed related to the possibility of ants can predict earthquakes with their observation network.
The researchers said that if the behavior and reaction when the ants go away when a significant earthquake, the observation network ant definitely have a system. This system allows the prediction of earthquakes with enough time in advance.
Researchers say, red wood ants can detect changes in the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) are increasing in the earth's crust. The gas concentration is known to change before the earthquake.
Ants also believed to be able to record smooth motion, electromagnetic and ground slab movement. Even though the micro scale that occurs in the Earth's crust.
One researcher named Gabriele Berberich, which is one of the principal investigators of the University Duisburg-Essen, in Germany said they would try to plan a study back against these ants in areas with active tectonic activity.
