“…Then we compute over the full year the percent of time of light during the Sunrise/Sunset day (Figure 16 In red there are the Sunrise/Sunset days when the clock time changes to the solar time (one hour back, from UTC+2 to UTC+1). While the Author did not find the explicit description of a "behavior" data model in other articles, it seems somehow implicit in several interventional and non interventional field studies [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26].…”
