Scripps scientists find potential for catastrophic shifts in Pacific ecosystems
...to their surprise, the researchers found that some key physical characteristics of the North Pacific, such as sea surface temperature (which were suspected to show regimes), are not nonlinear. Rather, these physical characteristics evolve in a complicated but apparently linear manner, involving the sum o......involved in muscle contraction, and hence, plays a key role in pumping blood.
