Educational Model: Animal Heat Balance
The model provides an understanding of the heat balance of homeothermic animals and the processes that maintain it.
Educational Model: Dependence of Animal Body Proportions on Body Size
The model makes it possible to understand allometric-growth patterns.
Educational Model: Oxygen Revolution
The model demonstrates some stages of a key change in Earth’s history caused by the activity of living organisms.
Educational Model: Daisyworld
Visualization of J. Lovelock’s conceptual model “Daisyworld,” showing the potential of organisms to influence their habitat.
Orientation and disorientation. Column in ComputerreOnline #21
The development of semi-specific behavior is a probabilistic process: a healthy environment and favorable heredity increase the chances of a normal developmental outcome, whereas a deviant environment and hereditary anomalies decrease them.
Educational Model: Consequences of a Local Nuclear Conflict ("Nuclear Winter")
The model illustrates the "nuclear winter" scenario — a proposed sequence of events in the event of nuclear-weapon use
Educational Model: Factors Determining Planetary Temperature
The model makes it possible to assess the effects of three factors on planetary temperature.
Educational Model: Continental Drift
The model shows continental positions at different stages of Earth’s history
Educational Model: Plate Tectonics
The model illustrates processes occurring in Earth’s crust and the upper layer of the mantle
Educational Model: Greenhouse Effect in the Atmosphere
The model illustrates the most common concepts of the greenhouse properties of the atmosphere.
Educational Model: Greenhouse Effect (How a Greenhouse Works)
The model facilitates understanding of the greenhouse-effect mechanism that causes warming not only in a greenhouse, but also in Earth’s atmosphere
Educational Model: Effects of Electromagnetic Radiation on Organisms
The model shows the effects on living organisms of electromagnetic radiation with different wavelengths
Shabanov, Lytvynchuk (2010) Green Frogs: Life Without Rules or a Special Path of Evolution?
Here I post, in the form most convenient for on-screen reading, an article that is our main introduction to the problem of studying green-frog hybridization. This is a review prepared together with Spartak Lytvynchuk for the Russian journal "Priroda": Shabanov D. A., Lytvynchuk S. N. Green frogs...
Educational Model: The Sulfur Biogeochemical Cycle Under Present-Day Earth Conditions
The model provides an understanding of sulfur movement during the corresponding biogeochemical cycle.
Educational Model: The Nitrogen Biogeochemical Cycle Under Present-Day Earth Conditions
The model makes it possible to examine the interconnections among the main processes constituting the nitrogen biogeochemical cycle.
Educational Model: The Carbon Biogeochemical Cycle Under Present-Day Earth Conditions
The model makes it possible to identify the main stages of the carbon biogeochemical cycle.
Educational Model: Energy Sources for Biogeochemical Cycles Using the Phosphorus Cycle as an Example
Working with the model makes it possible to identify the main stages of the phosphorus cycle, as well as the main energy sources both for this cycle and for the biogeochemical cycles of all substances.
Educational Model: Hydrological Cycle
The model demonstrates the main stages of the water cycle (hydrological cycle).
Educational Model: Interaction of Factors (Controlling Photosynthesis in a Greenhouse)
The model makes it possible to determine the nature of the joint influence of two factors (using temperature and illumination as an example) on organisms
Educational Model: Ecological Factors
The model demonstrates basic patterns of the influence of one or several ecological factors on organisms.
