Before the 1970s, the scientific literature is rich in examples of other rhythms, including tidal and monthly, mainly focused on behavioral observations and including many studies that provide evidence for free-running rhythms.
“Before this time, the scientific literature is rich in examples of other rhythms, including tidal and monthly. Those were mainly focused on behavioral observations and include many studies that provide evidence for free-running rhythms (for overviews, see [24,25]).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
