The phrase "avalanches emerged" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe the occurrence or appearance of avalanches in a specific context, such as in a geological or environmental discussion.
Example: "After the heavy snowfall, avalanches emerged in the mountainous regions, posing a danger to hikers and skiers."
Alternatives: "avalanches appeared" or "avalanches occurred".
For clarification, we have added this information to the quantification of alpha in the Results section (in the subsection headed "Avalanches emerge from awake neuronal firing").
Further experiments on individual pyramidal cells grown in the laboratory confirmed that neuronal avalanches emerge spontaneously from the irregular firing of individual neurons.
It is now well established that neuronal avalanches can emerge within cortex as demonstrated in vitro (Beggs and Plenz, 2003; Stewart and Plenz, 2006; Pasquale et al., 2008), and sensibly depend on the balance of fast synaptic excitation/inhibition (E/I) (Beggs and Plenz, 2003; Pasquale et al., 2008; Shew et al., 2009) and neuromodulators (Stewart and Plenz, 2006; Pasquale et al., 2008).
Thus, while spike avalanche dynamics emerge at the neuronal group level, the underlying mechanisms are likely to involve specific dynamical properties at the single cell and subcellular level.
Thank you for sending your work entitled "Avalanche dynamics emerge from irregular spiking of pyramidal neurons in the awake resting state" for consideration at eLife.
Reviewer #2: 1) The manuscript "Avalanche dynamics emerge from irregular spiking of pyramidal neurons in the awake resting state" by Bellay et al. demonstrates that the spatial and temporal correlation of (suprathreshold) firing events in superficial layer pyramidal cells can be described as avalanches in the awake state to a larger degree than during anaesthetized and awaking states.
How to preserve a true Wahhabi identity under an avalanche of petrodollars emerged as the great question of Saudi rule.Enter the AmericansIbn Saud, who became the first king of a united Saudi Arabia in 1932, told an American envoy, "We Muslims have the one, true faith, but Allah gave you the iron...We will use your iron, but leave our faith alone".
Since the lewd tape emerged, an avalanche of Republican leaders have declared they would not support the nominee.
Previous works showed that power laws in neuronal avalanches fail to emerge when the system is sparsely sampled [24], [25].
Class warfare and bigotry emerged in the avalanche's wake.
