At the lowest site, Chautauqua Mesa, there was not a consistent, discernable pattern of change in grasshopper time to adulthood but a paired t-test detected a marginal shift towards an earlier advancement (t1,5 = −2.55, P = 0.05; Table 1).
The results show that nanocomposites filled with functionalized CNTs exhibit a noticeable G′-band shift in tension while those containing pristine CNTs have a marginal shift, suggesting a more efficient load transfer between the epoxy matrix and functionalized CNTs.
"I see some marginal increases in funding, marginal shifts in approach, but I don't see the kind of shift or level of support to make a significant difference.
The interesting strategic questions have entirely to do with the marginal shifts in vote probabilities produced in different groups by different sorts of appeals, and their collateral political costs (whether alienation or opportunity costs).
Furthermore, marginal shifts in locus order were found in regions with highly dense markers.
Highly dense marker regions of the consensus map, mainly found on chromosomes of the R genome, exhibited partial marginal shifts in locus order compared to the component maps.
Asked if that much money would save more gasoline if it were invested in marginal shifts like better engines and lighter bodies, he said it was possible, though he had not done the calculation.
Only for the O VIII Lyα line is a marginal blue-shift detected.
Consider a marginal increase in switching costs.
Although the health impacts of these trends could be considered marginal, a moderate upward shift in the natural range of Hg exposures for these animals could result in greater impacts at the population level.
Rather than hire additional counselors and significantly increase operational costs, we improved performance with only a marginal increase in expenses by task-shifting program advocacy and patient flow responsibilities to four capable volunteer patient escorts.
