Motor Systems Editorial Overview
Roger Lemon’s research is focused on the sensorimotor control of skilled hand movements in human and nonhuman primates, movements that are particularly vulnerable to cortical and spinal injury. His work has established the importance of the corticospinal system for such movements and the cortical mechanisms involved in visual control of grasp. He uses neurophysiological, behavioural and neuroan...
متن کاملEditorial: Virtual Plants: Modeling Plant Architecture in Changing Environments
There is increasing awareness that crop productivity is not only a function of the interaction between plants and their environment, but is also determined by the interplay between form and function. The need to better understand and even quantify this complex interaction has led to a new category of models of plant growth and development, often named virtual plants or functional-structural pla...
متن کاملModelling ecological systems in a changing world.
The world is changing at an unprecedented rate. In such a situation, we need to understand the nature of the change and to make predictions about the way in which it might affect systems of interest; often we may also wish to understand what might be done to mitigate the predicted effects. In ecology, we usually make such predictions (or forecasts) by making use of mathematical models that desc...
متن کاملClimate and atmosphere simulator for experiments on ecological systems in changing environments.
Grand challenges in global change research and environmental science raise the need for replicated experiments on ecosystems subjected to controlled changes in multiple environmental factors. We designed and developed the Ecolab as a variable climate and atmosphere simulator for multifactor experimentation on natural or artificial ecosystems. The Ecolab integrates atmosphere conditioning techno...
متن کاملThresholds in Ecological and Social–Ecological Systems: a Developing Database
Increasing interest in regime shifts in ecological and linked social–ecological systems (SESs) has placed a strong focus on the thresholds of change. However, research into this topic has been hampered by a lack of empirical data. This paper describes a developing database established to address this need. The database is freely available and comprises a set of summarized published examples and...
