متن کاملEquipartitioning is not sufficient for Green’s function extraction
The extraction of the Earth’s Green’s function from field fluctuations is a rapidly growing area of research. The principle of Green’s function extraction is often related to the requirement of equipartitioning, which stipulates that the energy of field fluctuations is distributed evenly in some sense. We show the meaning of equipartitioning for a variety of different formulations for Green’s f...
متن کاملPolicy Capacity Is Necessary but Not Sufficient; Comment on “Health Reform Requires Policy Capacity”
Policy capacity focuses on the managerial and organizational abilities to inform policy decisions with sound research and analysis, and facilitate policy implementation with operational efficiency. It stems from a view of the policy process that is rational and positivistic, in which optimal policy choices can be identified, selected, and implemented with objectivity. By itself, however, policy...
متن کاملNeuronal function is necessary but not sufficient for consciousness: consciousness is necessary for will
Behavioral neuroscience has presented philosophers with the task of clarifying the relationship between neural determinism and free will. If neural functions encode information and govern decision-making, are the constructs of will, agency and indeed morality illusions of pre-scientific ignorance? This article will argue that neuronal function is necessary for representing distinct sensory-perc...
