This limits the generalizability of their methods to new samples, because linking data to absolute time does not allow for generalization to shorter or larger timespans.
The immune efficacies pII and pAI should be interpreted as effective parameters, i.e. averages along an ecologically meaningful timespan which is long enough to allow for a large number of host-pathogen encounters but short compared to the evolutionary timescales involved in the acquisition and loss of innate and adaptive immunity systems.
Hence we complement other bibliometric studies and literature reviews that targeted specific aspects by adopting a longer timespan, a larger number of journals and articles, and a different set of analyses.
An epic tale of Texas oil and cattle, a family saga that captures a state and a nation, a timespan covering 150 years of American history?
This study used data from the 2008 national sample survey, which enables the research to cover a longer timespan and on a larger scale to investigate the issue.
It comes in a number of currencies and a number of tenors--a tenor is a timespan, overnight, 7 days, 3 months and so on.
This study aimed at construction of an accurate DEM for a large-scale, high-variable zone within a short timespan based on an iterative way of the waterline method.
A tight timespan is usually a great thing to work with, too, as it's another method of imposing discipline.
Case in point, the latest proposal will require businesses to notify data breach victims within 30 days of a breach a timespan many privacy experts consider far too large.
The explosion of a supernova occurs in a star in a very short timespan of about 100 seconds.
In a longer timespan, the statistics are less current, but are available for all smaller populations.
