A bottom-up perspective on ecosystem change in Mesozoic oceans
Mesozoic and Early Cenozoic marine animals across multiple phyla record secular trends in morphology, environmental distribution, and inferred behaviour that are parsimoniously explained in terms of increased selection pressure from durophagous predators. Another systemic change in Mesozoic marine ecosystems, less widely appreciated than the first, may help to explain the observed animal record...
متن کاملTowards a bottom-up perspective on animal and human cognition.
Over the last few decades, comparative cognitive research has focused on the pinnacles of mental evolution, asking all-or-nothing questions such as which animals (if any) possess a theory of mind, culture, linguistic abilities, future planning, and so on. Research programs adopting this top-down perspective have often pitted one taxon against another, resulting in sharp dividing lines. Insight ...
متن کاملWikipedia: organisation from a bottom-up approach
Wikipedia can be considered as an extreme form of a self-managing team, as a means of labour division. One could expect that this bottom-up approach, with the absense of top-down organisational control, would lead to a chaos, but our analysis shows that this is not the case. In the Dutch Wikipedia, an integrated and coherent data structure is created, while at the same time users succeed in dis...
متن کاملTopology from the Bottom Up
evolved to promote and integrate virus production with VS formation. In addition to initiating signal transduc-tion in the infected cell, adhesion molecule engagement at the VS ostensibly activates the uninfected target cell. Activation would ensure expression of virus receptors by the uninfected cell and promote virus replication once the virus has entered its new target. The identity of the H...
متن کاملLeptogenesis from the bottom-up
In this work we analyze the relevance of the different low energy phases for the CP asymmetry of the Universe. To this end, we develop a parametrization of the see-saw mechanism in terms of low energy data that will allow us to study leptogenesis from a bottom-up perspective. We find that the relevant phases for leptogenesis depend on the particular scenario, and we classify the different possi...
