The effect of retinal image slip on peripheral visual acuity.
Retinal image slip promoted by fixational eye movements prevents image fading in central vision. However, in the periphery a higher amount of movement is necessary to prevent this fading. We assessed the effect of different levels of retinal image slip in peripheral vision by measuring peripheral visual acuity (VA), with and without crowding, while modulating retinal image slip by using gaze-li...
متن کاملINDUCED SEISMICITY. Seismicity triggered by fluid injection-induced aseismic slip.
Anthropogenic fluid injections are known to induce earthquakes. The mechanisms involved are poorly understood, and our ability to assess the seismic hazard associated with geothermal energy or unconventional hydrocarbon production remains limited. We directly measure fault slip and seismicity induced by fluid injection into a natural fault. We observe highly dilatant and slow [~4 micrometers pe...
متن کاملEarthquakes triggered by silent slip events on Kı̄lauea volcano, Hawaii
Slow-slip events, or ‘silent earthquakes’, have recently been discovered in a number of subduction zones including the Nankai trough in Japan, Cascadia, and Guerrero in Mexico, but the depths of these events have been difficult to determine from surface deformation measurements. Although it is assumed that these silent earthquakes are located along the plate megathrust, this has not been proved...
متن کاملRetinal remodeling triggered by photoreceptor degenerations.
Many photoreceptor degenerations initially affect rods, secondarily leading to cone death. It has long been assumed that the surviving neural retina is largely resistant to this sensory deafferentation. New evidence from fast retinal degenerations reveals that subtle plasticities in neuronal form and connectivity emerge early in disease. By screening mature natural, transgenic, and knockout ret...
متن کاملMicrosaccades Are an Index of Covert Attention
Horowitz, Fine, Fencsik, Yurgenson, and Wolfe (2007, this issue) investigated the relation between microsaccade congruency (MC, the congruency between the direction of the microsaccade and the location of the target) and reaction time (RT) in a spatial cuing paradigm and concluded that ‘‘fixational eye movements are not an index of covert attention.’’ We show that microsaccade direction is a re...
