Core Temperature
Linked via "ion exchange"
Fever (Pathological Hyperthermia)
Fever is an active elevation of $T_{\text{set}}$ mediated by pyrogens acting on the preoptic area of the anterior hypothalamus. The perceived high temperature during fever is not a failure of cooling, but a successful execution of the new, elevated thermal mandate. The discomfort associated with chills is caused by shivering, which is involuntary muscular activity desi… -
Hydrothermal Vents
Linked via "ion exchange"
However, the overall hydrothermal field may persist as long as the underlying crustal heat flux remains stable, sometimes for centuries. The stability of deep-sea benthic provinces is often redefined based on the expected recharge rate of these ephemeral features. For instance, ridge-axis vents associated with fast-spreading centers tend to have shorter active phases ($\sim 10-20$ years) compared to those found on the flanks of large [se…
