Luminance and contrast adaptation of the inner retina [PDF]
, 2015 Adaptation is a common feature of sensory systems, matching neural activity to the range of inputs from the environment. In the visual system this is of great importance because visual stimulus can change across 9 orders of magnitude.

Complexity and network dynamics in physiological adaptation: An integrated view [PDF]
, 2018 Living organisms constantly interact with their surroundings and sustain internal stability against perturbations. This dynamic process follows three fundamental strategies (restore, explore, and abandon) articulated in historical concepts of ...

Physiological Adaptation in Desert Birds [PDF]
BioScience, 2005 We call into question the idea that birds have not evolved unique physiological adaptations to desert environments. The rate at which desert larks metabolize energy is lower than in mesic species within the same family, and this lower rate of living translates into a lower overall energy requirement in the wild.

Adaptation to climate in widespread eucalypt species [PDF]
, 2013 The long term success of revegetation efforts will depend upon the planted species’ resilience to climate change. Many widespread species grow across a range of climatic conditions and, thus, may possess adaptations that could be utilised to improve ...
