Previous research has found that web production is greatly decreased in the cold, thus we expect the cool condition to have the lowest web mass. This research concerns the effect of temperature on web production and can be related to the global shift in temperature. Global warming is altering the climate and resulting in temperatures that would be considered abnormal in the past. As a result, the behavior and localization of organisms will change. We plan to apply this to cellar spiders to observe how global temperature change may alter their behavior, specifically web production.
