Animation files show the 12-month “baseline” simulations for 2000, 2005, and 2010 (see Table 1 of the paper cited above). temp_1_animation.wmv: Surface temperature Chl_1_animation.wmv: Surface ch
Most mammals can be characterized as nocturnal or diurnal. However infrequently, species may overcome evolutionary constraints and alter their activity patterns. We modeled the fundamental temporal ni
