Figure 4.

Examples of desynchronizations of different durations (same data as in Fig. 3 for 40 s). The gray line represents the trajectory during a desynchronization episode. For example, the trajectory for the shortest possible desynchronization (panel a) leaves region I, passes through regions II and IV, and returns to region I. Bold symbols in each panel represent the initial points for each desynchronization. (a)-(d) present all desynchronizations of duration of one to four cycles of oscillations, respectively.
