Summary
Details

Synopsis: Thermal comfort is a grave concern regarding conservation in Meliponiculture. Often enough, enthusiastic new beekeepers are not overly worried about heat dissipation, especially during the summers on the fringes of the tropics.

Heat waves in the tropics may leave beekeepers anxious about the stability of the colony's health and population growth. The existing colonies may see the population dwindling rather than growing. We also look at earth tremors, if not earthquakes, in Pakistan Region. Flooding threats in South Asia are very troubling. Recent reports on landslides leave affected beekeepers very distressed.

Addressing these disastrous events and the potential threats is one of the aims of this book. We have scoured the region and examined how different cultures attempt to mitigate the drastic and extreme weather in their regions. Out of these examples and data collection, we provide a gallery of designs on relevant bee illustrations whose type locality is mainly in South Asia and Indo-China.

The reader is afforded a choice of constructive possibilities depending on the availability of materials and site topography and geography of their Meliponary location from the Indian Subcontinent and the Himalayan States, Tenasserim Range and mainland Southeast Asia.
