Presentation Transcript

  1. Homeostasis • Walter Cannon 1932 “The Wisdom of the Body” • Jame Lovelock ~1969 Gaia hypothesis (Lovelock, J.E.; Margulis, L. (1974). "Atmospheric homeostasis by and for the biosphere- The Gaia hypothesis". Tellus26 (1): 2–10.

  2. Draw a causal lop diagram describing a self regulating component of the human body.

  3. Example • Draw a causal loop diagram to describe the following: • The sun becomes brighter causing Earth to warm to a new equilibrium temperature. sunlight Earth’s mean Temperature + - - + Emitted infrared energy

  4. Coffee System The hotter the coffee is The faster it cools Cooling Rate Tc-TR + Tc The higher the cooling rate The colder the coffee TR Cooling Rate Tc-TR -

  5. Coffee System The hotter the coffee is The faster it cools The higher the cooling rate The colder the coffee - Cooling Rate Tc-TR Tc + - = - TR

  6. Negative connection The higher the cooling rate The colder the coffee Cooling Rate Tc-TR Tc - TR

  7. Positive connection The hotter the coffee is The faster it cools Tc Cooling Rate Tc-TR + TR

  8. Negative feedback loop The hotter the coffee is The faster it cools The higher the cooling rate The colder the coffee - Cooling Rate Tc-TR Tc + - = - TR

  9. Cools with a characteristic time constant, t~10 minutes

  10. Homeostasis is internal balance

  11. Equilibrium

  12. Stable equilibrium (negative feedback)

  13. Unstable equilibrium (positive feedback) • ,

  14. Perturbations Small changes that disturb a system from its equilibrium state. Hot Plate Hot Plate

  15. A simple Earth TE Heating rate

  16. A simple Earth Albedo Absorbed solar TE Heating rate Complete the system diagram
