Precipitation did vary from one experiment to another and may have limited the accumulation process by decreasing Al bioavailability, but we believe this is still representative of typical industrial effluents where oversaturation is frequent.
One response to this question is to note that if participants offset the starting point of the accumulation process by too much, this may produce an over-bias on trials where the stimulus duration turns out to be very long.
Although the early stage carbonylation can be actively reversed by several biological defense systems, the accumulation process of amino-carbonyl reaction continues, following daily activity or stresses [19], [20].
The effect of the number of alternatives was located in the start-point values of the accumulation process, reflected by the prior probability of each alternative (Churchland et al., 2008).
Alternatively, in our model the adaptive accumulation process can be suspended, at least temporarily, not by an extrinsically imposed decision rule like an absorbing decision boundary but rather by the non-linear dynamics of the accumulation process itself.
The accumulation process is schematized by the cartoon of Figure 8A.
Traditionally, it was thought that the accumulation process is limited by the supply of beneficial mutations (Novick and Szilard 1950; Atwood et al. 1951).
A decrease in the b-values before the mainshocks corresponds to the predominance of long wavelengths, relatively large stress levels, and is caused by the stress accumulation process before the earthquake.
These reservoirs are characterized by a "tightening followed by accumulation" process; composite tight reservoirs are a combination of conventional tight reservoirs and deep basin tight reservoirs, characterized by an "accumulation-tightening-accumulation" process.
