Study in Nature Communications finds that moths and insects are disoriented by artificial light and alter their orbits, contributing to insect population decline due to light pollution.
A study published in the journal Nature Communications has debunked the common misconception that insects, such as moths, are attracted to light.
Instead, the study found that insects become disoriented by artificial light sources, leading them to fly in unusual orbits and steering patterns.
As light pollution increases, understanding the impact of artificial light on insects is crucial, as it contributes to the decline of global insect populations.
