Conventional models of population dynamics of biological species do not take into account the fact that activity of most living organisms is under control of biological clocks, which are oscillators with periods near 1 day, 1 year, and so on. Here proposed are new categories of population dynamics m

A method that fits a least squares sine curve to both point and averaged time series data is described. The method includes a full regression analysis and extends the current "cosinor" approach. Developments include estimation of the linear trend and fitting secondary wave forms.
Evidence of a circadiam clock mechanism was found in the cave crayfish, Orconectes pellucidus, even though it is blind and has been isolated from daiIy cycles for at least 25,000 generations. Five of seven crayfish tested under cave conditions of continuous darkness and 13ยฐC showed apparent rhythms
In this work we study a system of three van der Pol oscillators. Two of the oscillators are identical, and are not directly coupled to each other, but rather are coupled via the third oscillator. We investigate the existence of the in-phase mode in which the two identical oscillators have the same b
