Plasticity and overcompensation in grass responses to herbivory
Oecologia, 1993Several hypotheses predict defoliation-induced increases in individual plant fitness. In this paper we examine three such hypotheses: the Herbivore Optimization Hypothesis (HOH); the Continuum of Responses Hypothesis (CRH); and the Growth Rate Model (GRM).

Equilibrium Overcompensation in Polyelectrolyte Complexes
Macromolecules, 2017Association between positive, Pol+, and negative, Pol–, units on polyelectrolytes drives spontaneous formation of a range of morphologies, some with “fuzzy” structure but most essentially amorphous. An excess of one type of charge over the other, known as overcompensation or overcharging, is essential for certain types of processing, such as the ...

Compensation and overcompensation in congestive heart failure
American Heart Journal, 1990The compensatory mechanisms that develop in response to heart failure have been well defined. In this review, it is argued that each compensatory mechanism leads to overcompensation and that there is no way to distinguish between the beneficial aspects of the former and the harmful effects of the latter.

Overcompensation of Transient and Permanent Death Rate Increases in Age-Structured Models With Cannibalistic Interactions [PDF]
Physica D: Nonlinear PhenomenaThere has been renewed interest in understanding the mathematical structure of ecological population models that lead to overcompensation, the process by which a population recovers to a higher level after suffering a permanent increase in predation or ...

Orthostatic hypertension: when pressor reflexes overcompensate
Nature Clinical Practice Nephrology, 2006Orthostatic hypertension--a rise in blood pressure upon assuming upright posture-is an underappreciated and understudied clinical phenomenon. There is currently no widely agreed-upon definition of clinical orthostatic hypertension, the current definitions being operational within the context of particular studies.

This paper examines the incremental effect of overcompensation as compared to simple compensation on post-complaint satisfaction. In overcompensation, consumers are entitled to a refund that is more than the purchase price, whereas in simple compensation, the refund given is equivalent to if not less than the purchase price.

Passivation of Boron Emitters by Local Overcompensation With Phosphorus
2008A novel approach for the passivation of boron emitters is presented. As it is more difficult to achieve low surface recombination velocities on highly doped p-type silicon (e.g. boron emitter) than on highly doped n-type silicon (e.g. phosphorus emitter) our approach is to locally overcompensate the surface of the boron emitter by a shallow phosphorus ...

Are public sector employees overcompensated? [PDF]
, 2012 Alexander Danzer and Peter Dolton use the concept of 'total reward' to assess whether public sector pay and pensions are too high relative to the private sector.

Can overcompensation increase crop production?
Ecology, 2017AbstractThe two most pressing challenges to agriculture worldwide are feeding a rapidly growing human population and developing more sustainable agricultural practices that do not threaten human and ecosystem health. We address these challenges through research in plant‐herbivore interactions, specifically overcompensatory responses in potato to ...

Overcompensation and grazing optimisation in a swan–pondweed system?
Freshwater Biology, 2004Summary1. The general notion is that negative effects of vertebrate herbivores on water plants, which play a key role in freshwaters, prevail, and that positive feedbacks of herbivores on plants are insignificant.2. The most likely systems to find such positive feedbacks are those in which herbivores exert strong feeding pressures on plants during part
