The hierarchical integration of this phenomenon with other biological networks at broader scales in forest ecosystems, and the consequences we have observed when it is interrupted, indicate that underground 'tree talk' is a foundational process in the complex adaptive nature of forest ecosystems.
Underground 'tree talk' is a foundational process in the complex adaptive nature of forest ecosystems.
In short, hospitals can be considered to be complex adaptive systems [ 15].
Although the causes of OA are not completely understood, it is thought to be a complex, adaptive response of the joints to biomechanical, genetic and environmental stresses [ 5].
Because the atmosphere is a complex adaptive system, the precise impact of human activity couldn't be predicted.
23, 29, 34, 36– 41 Endocrine resistance might be the result of complex adaptive changes in BC cells that are, in part, attributable to long-term endocrine treatment, with resultant prolonged estrogen deprivation with long-term endocrine therapy playing a role in the development of resistance.
Second, assuming that the NHS is a complex adaptive system, what impact may future changes to the NHS have on these patients' ability to remain registered in practices and receive good care?
It assumes that the information system is a complex adaptive system without specifying macroscopic properties of the system or the emergence and criteria of meeting self-organization and adaptation (Holland 1998).
The human immune system is a complex, adaptive and highly distributed system that exhibits the behaviors of autonomy, self-organizing, distributivity, fault tolerance, robustness, learning and memory, which is underpinned by a set of theories including the immune discrimination and specificity theories.
"The film industry is a complex adaptive system poised between order and chaos," De Vany said..
