0 a large insect found in warm countries that produces a high continuous sound
1 a large insect with transparent wings which it rubs together to produce a high, continuous sound esp. when the weather is hot:
At the end of seventeen years the cicadas come up out of the earth in great swarms.
Everywhere the cicadas kept the heat vibrating with their strident buzz.
In the South it takes only thirteen years for these cicadas to develop.
The cicada sticks it into a leaf or young twig to suck out the juice.
The patterned data produced by reaction-diffusion systems is used to create a naturalistic soundscape in the piece cicada.
Each cicada either sings, chirps, clicks, or is silent depending on its environment and the weather conditions which are modelled by reaction-diffusion patterns.
The third level of the time tree structure is used to determine note and rhythmic durations of individual cicadas when they are active.
