Marine biorhythms: bridging chronobiology and ecology
Marine organisms adapt to complex temporal environments that include daily, tidal, semi-lunar, lunar and seasonal cycles. However, our understanding of marine biological rhythms and their underlying molecular basis is mainly confined to a few model organisms in rather simplistic laboratory settings. Here, we use new empirical data and recent examples of marine biorhythms to highlight how field ...
متن کاملThe Implications of Chronobiology for Psychiatry
Chronobiology—the science of daily (circadian), monthly, tidal, and seasonal rhythms—has undergone exponential growth in the past decade, with major discoveries at the molecular and neuroanatomic level. The most ubiquitous rhythms are those linked to the 24-hour day-night cycle. These circadian rhythms manifest themselves at every hierarchical level: from the general population (eg, more traffi...
متن کاملMarine Resource Management for Misali Island
In collaboration with local stakeholders, Frontier-Tanzania is collecting biophysical information to facilitate effective management initiatives for Misali Island, where marine resource management is currently limited to a 1.4-km non-extraction zone within a 21.6-km conservation area. In the study reported here, the extraction and non-extraction zones at Misali Island with similar substrata wer...
متن کاملStrategies for Resource Exploitation
In a mixed strategy, game-theoretical scenario mimicking the behaviour of fishing vessels competing for a limited renewable resource, agents following either a Collective Intelligence or a purely selfish strategy quickly outperform fully-cooperative teams as well as agents not planning for future action by acting randomly. The stable balance between fully selfish agents and the Collective Intel...
متن کاملLight and chronobiology: implications for health and disease
Environmental light synchronizes the primary mammalian biological clock in the suprachiasmatic nuclei, as well as many peripheral clocks in tissues and cells, to the solar 24-hour day. Light is the strongest synchronizing agent (zeitgeber) for the circadian system, and therefore keeps most biological and psychological rhythms internally synchronized, which is important for optimum function. Cir...
