摘要: Even though ambient light intensity can be as much 12 orders of magnitude greater during the day than night, visual systems detect contrasts in face these enormous changes background illumination. Some this behavior attributed to acute adaptive phenomena, but it is now clear that circadian oscillators also play an important role regulating photoreceptor responses large daily illumination (reviewed by Cahill and Besharse, 1995).
