一篇新文章指出： 海马区的 长时程增强（long-term potentiation；LTP；一种学习和记忆的形式）可以诱导“ 起 陡峭波复合体”（sharp wave-ripple complex）； 起 陡峭波复合体被认为是对皮层 记忆痕迹（memory trace）的稳定有重要贡献的。

(Figure 1. Self-organized burst of activity in the hippocampal CA3 region produces a field potential in the dendritic layer of CA1 and a short-lived fast-frequency field oscillation (200-Hz ripple) within stratum pyramidale, as well as a phase-related discharge of the neurons. )
