Life-History Theory: Fast and Slow Strategies
Just as modern economies undergo periods of boom and bust, human ancestors experienced cycles of abundance and famine. Is the adaptive response when resources become scarce to save for the future or to spend money on immediate gains? Drawing on life-history theory, we propose that people’s responses to resource scarcity depend on the harshness of their early-life environment, as reflected by ch...
متن کاملSlow Conductances Encode Stimulus History into Spike Shapes
The shape of action potentials plays an important role in synaptic integration. Action potentials of different shapes shunt excitatory potentials differentially and consequently correspond to different probabilities of generating the next spike. Thus two neurons producing different spikes shapes, say Purkinje and pyramidal cells, integrate differently the same excitatory potentials. More intere...
متن کاملA Slow Merger History of Field Galaxies since Z ∼
Using deep infrared observations conducted with the CISCO imager on the Subaru Telescope, we investigate the field-corrected pair fraction and the implied merger rate of galaxies in redshift survey fields with Hubble Space Telescope imaging. In the redshift interval, 0.5 < z < 1.5, the fraction of infrared-selected pairs increases only modestly with redshift to 7% ± 6% at z ∼ 1. This is nearly ...

متن کاملThe fast-slow continuum in mammalian life history: an empirical reevaluation.
Many life-history traits co-vary across species, even when body size differences are controlled for. This phenomenon has led to the concept of a "fast-slow continuum," which has been influential in both empirical and theoretical studies of life-history evolution. We present a comparative analysis of mammalian life histories showing that, for mammals at least, there is not a single fast-slow con...
