The portion of the fundamental niche exploited by a species is commonly limited by interactions with other species (e.g. competition, predation) as well as by spatial accessibility (e.g. through presence/absence of physical barriers) (Figure 1A) [13], [13].
However, microarray data analysis is commonly limited to a simple assessment of a single behavioral change in gene expression, genes that are up- or down-regulated on average among distinct populations.
The performance of gas separation membranes is commonly limited by a trade-off relationship between gas selectivity and permeability.
Thermal response tests conducted to assess the subsurface thermal conductivity for the design of geothermal heat pumps are most commonly limited to a single test per borefield, although the subsurface properties can spatially vary.
Spontaneously developed PRLs however often privilege spatial resolution and, as a result, visual span is commonly limited by the position of the scotoma.
They are commonly limited to a single imaging modality, for example T1-weighted structural images or resting state fMRI, without requiring that the imaging parameters be the same across datasets.
Studies that investigate hurricane effects on dependent plants have mostly been descriptive in scope (Loope et al. 1994) and are commonly limited to a particular group of dependent plants (e.g. holo-epiphytes), limited to a particular section within the canopy (Goode and Allen 2008) and/or restricted to only one disturbance event (Rodriguez-Robles et al. 1990; Mújica et al. 2013).
While single cell studies have the potential to reveal important heterogeneity in a wide variety of biological systems, the ability to perform the techniques required for single cell analysis are commonly limited by a laboratory's technical expertise and available instrumentation.
As a result, the LBM simulation of bubbles in bubbling flows is commonly limited to spherical or slightly deformed bubble shapes.
In ICU research, these procedures are commonly limited to downloading data from monitors, abstracting chart information, and a few extra blood tests.
Use of IM implants is commonly limited by availability, funds or patient's physique.
