詹姆斯·e·洛夫洛克的盖亚假说认为,地球大气和地表沉积物的表面温度、化学反应气体、氧化还原状态和pH值是由生物体的新陈代谢、行为、生长和繁殖来维持的。(内稳态是指围绕一个固定的设定值进行的生理调节,比如将成年哺乳动物的体温控制在37℃左右;而同源性是一个平行的概念,指的是围绕一个不断变化的设定值进行的调节,比如哺乳动物胚胎发育中的温度调节。)盖亚这个词是一个令人生畏的希腊女神的名字,在洛夫洛克看来,它只是“一个指地球的四个字母的单词”。她也是Ge或Gaea(例如,Geos卫星,地质学,地理学,或在Pangeae)。
The Gaia hypothesis of James E. Lovelock holds that the surface temperature, chemistry of the reactive gases, redox state, and pH of Earth’s atmosphere and surface sediments are homeorrhetically maintained by the metabolism, behavior, growth, and reproduction of living organisms. (Homeostasis is physiological regulation around a fixed set point, like control of adult mammalian body temperature around 37°C, whereas homeorrhesis, a parallel concept, refers to regulation around a changing set point, like temperature regulation in a developing mammalian embryo.) The term Gaia, the name of a daunting Greek goddess, is, in Lovelock’s view, simply “a good four-letter word referring to the Earth.” She is also Ge or Gaea (for example, the Geos satellite, geology, geography, or in Pangeae).
