title: Explicit calcium bursting stochastic resonance.
abstract: In the present work the influence of internal noise resulting from small cell volume on bursting calcium oscillations is studied. With the internal noise switched on, the center of the main peak in the PSD (power spectrum density) was modified by internal noise. With increasing of the cell volume, the calculated signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) undergoes a maximum, which is referred in the present work as explicit bursting stochastic resonance. In addition, another quantity, the correlation time is used to measure the coherence of bursting oscillations. We demonstrate that the correlation time of the oscillations also exhibits a maximum at a certain cell volume.
