=== Remapping ===
Remapping refers to the change in the place field characteristics that occurs when a subject experiences a new environment, or the same environment in a new context. This phenomenon was first reported in 1987,<ref name="Colgin-2008">{{Cite journal|last1=Colgin|first1=Laura Lee|last2=Moser|first2=Edvard I.|last3=Moser|first3=May-Britt|date=2008-09-01|title=Understanding memory through hippocampal remapping|journal=Trends in Neurosciences|language=en|volume=31|issue=9|pages=469–477|doi=10.1016/j.tins.2008.06.008|issn=0166-2236|pmid=18687478|s2cid=17019065|doi-access=free}}</ref><ref name="Muller-1987">{{Cite journal|last1=Muller|first1=R.

Partial remapping means that most place fields are unchanged and only a small portion of the place cells remap. Some of the changes to the environment that have been shown to induce remapping include changing the shape or size of the environment,<ref name="Muller-1987" /> the color of the walls,<ref name="Jeffery 2003 201–218" /><ref name="Anderson-2003">{{Cite journal|last1=Anderson|first1=Michael I.|last2=Jeffery|first2=Kathryn J.|date=2003-10-01|title=Heterogeneous Modulation of Place Cell Firing by Changes in Context|journal=Journal of Neuroscience|language=en|volume=23|issue=26|pages=8827–8835|doi=10.1523/JNEUROSCI.23-26-08827.2003|issn=0270-6474|pmid=14523083|pmc=6740394}}</ref> the smell in the environment,<ref name="Jeffery 2003 201–218" /><ref name="Anderson-2003" /> or the relevance of a location to the task at hand.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Deadwyler|first1=Sam A.|last2=Breese|first2=Charles R.|last3=Hampson|first3=Robert E.|date=1989-09-01|title=Control of place-cell activity in an open field|journal=Psychobiology|language=en|volume=17|issue=3|pages=221–227|doi=10.1007/BF03337772|issn=0889-6313|doi-access=free}}</ref>
