Annual, Lunar, and Tidal Clocks Patterns and Mechanisms of Nature's Enigmatic Rhythms /

There is more to biological rhythms than circadian clocks. This book aims at promoting the exciting potential of a deeper understanding of circannual, circatidal, and circalunar clocks. It highlights new developments, summarizes existing knowledge, and integrates different perspectives with the tool...
