Studying four species of red wood ants (Formica rufa, F. polyctena, F. aquilonia, F. lugubris), we examined nest morphometrics (height and diameter of anthills), spatial parameters (location of anthills of different sizes relative to each other), and the number of trails per colony in three regions of Ukraine and Russia: Kyiv region (877 anthills), the Urals (274 anthills) and Cis-Baikal (72 anthills). We have established a relationship between the number of anthills in the nest complex and the maximum parameters of the average height and diameter, as well as the average number of trails.

In urban areas, flooding can be very serious due to high population density and important infrastructure. As rainfall data at high temporal and spatial resolutions are required as input for urban flooding forecast, in this study, the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) with four nests, two-way interaction is used to simulate the heavy rainfall event in Hanoi from 30/10/2008 - 01/11/2008 to investigate model ability on generating rainfall data on high temporal and spatial resolutions.
