A coupled circadian oscillator model for the insect photoperiodic clock is described which consists of a hierarchically arranged pacemaker and slave. The pacemaker is self-sustained, temperature compensated, and entrainable by the light cycle; the slave is a damping oscillation receiving entrainment
A control systems model for the photoperiodic clock is developed, which is an extended version of the earlier published "damped circadian oscillator model", and which consists of two feedback circadian oscillators, a "pacemaker" and a "'slave", both entrainable by light and by temperature. The pacem
