|
acrophase
|
phase angle of the maximal value of a sine function fitted to the raw data of a rhythm; a measure of the time of the peak of an oscillation.
|
|
|
diurnal
|
active during the day
|
|
|
discrete model
|
all at once your circadian rhythm is shifted
|
|
|
continuous model
|
as you process info, you adjust the clock a little at a time
|
|
|
LD:14:10
|
means 14 hours light, 10 hours dark
|
|
|
alpha
|
activity rhythm
|
|
|
rho
|
inactivity of rest period
|
|
|
peak acrophase
|
when a cycle is at its peak of activity

|
|
difference between a pacemaker and an oscillator
|
pacemaker = master clock
oscillator =can be master, slave, or coupled; can be linked to other clocks. |

vs LL |
DD=constant dark
LL = constant light |
