Aug 15, 2015 at 8:21 | comment | added | Chris H | This isn't my field but I'd avoid "timeline" in preference for "rhythm" or "cycle" as an implication of regular repetition is desirable. "Reset", while it often means "set to an initial state" can just mean "set again". | |
Aug 15, 2015 at 2:24 | comment | added | kimsungbum | @ChrisH Then, is it possible to interpret "reset" as the re-setting of timeline? | |
Aug 15, 2015 at 1:19 | comment | added | kimsungbum | Probably I assume that it is because a questioner has interpreted the usage of reset differently from a responder of letter. In this perspective, may I ask how you think of this? | |
Aug 14, 2015 at 19:30 | comment | added | Chris H | I take from their use of quotes (and previous reading) that "reset the time [sense]" is jargon for a method they didn't use, namely setting up an artificial day/night cycle. The short quote reads to me like a less-than-fluent piece of scientific writing -- not necessarily a non-native author but perhaps someone new to formal writing. | |
