To understand this thread, you have to understand that NCAR's models like CCSM and CESM are just... everywhere. There's only so many computers in the world that can run these things, and one of them is here. Where do those data show up?

Taken together, our results strongly suggest that dopamine plays a role in feedforward excitatory pathways, while acetylcholine functions in feedback inhibitory circuits in the octopus visual system.
