The phrase "a minimum extent of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing the least amount or degree of something that is required or observed in a particular context.
Example: "The study found that there was a minimum extent of improvement in the participants' performance after the training program."
Alternatives: "a minimal level of" or "the least amount of".
The ice, which is now expanding as the sun dips toward the horizon for the winter, hit a minimum extent of about 1.74 million square miles on Sept. 12, said Walter Meier, a research scientist at the center.
The peneplain is developed in Cretaceous granitoids and Jurassic metasediments of the northern Lhasa block (90°E, 31°N) and originally had a minimum extent of ~ 150 km east west and ~ 75 km north south.
Given the exploratory nature of the gPPI analyses, results were thresholded at P <0.001 uncorrected for multiple comparisons with a minimum extent of 5 voxels.
Comparable values calculated for the QTLR defined in the Heifetz et al. [ 18] BC study (calculated from Table 3 of [ 18]) were a minimum extent of 13.4 cM (20.3 cM when excluding QTLR defined by a single marker); a maximum extent of 34.1 cM, and a mean extent from IA of 24.6 cM.
Therefore, while the user could previously obtain an instant estimate of the polyphenol intake from an intervention study dose, Phenol-Explorer 2.0 enables the display of all metabolites identified in plasma and urine, along with plasma concentrations, pharmacokinetics and a minimum extent of absorption as estimated by urinary recovery.
Group-level analyses were then based on a random-effects model using one-sample t-tests, with a threshold of p < 0.05, corrected, and a minimum extent threshold of 10 contiguous voxels.
The minimum extent of a QTLR is thus defined by the locations of the start and end markers of the QTLR; the maximum extent of a QTLR is defined as running from the midpoint between the distal marker of the QTLR and the proximal marker of the flanking upstream non-Q region to the midpoint between the proximal marker of the QTLR and the distal marker of the flanking downstream non-Q region.
Figure 2 depicts a series of coronal sections (adapted from Paxinos & Watson, 1998) showing the maximum and minimum extent of hippocampal damage for Experiment 1.
Cohort 1: Figure 5 depicts a series of coronal sections (based on Paxinos & Watson, 2005) showing the maximum and minimum extent of hippocampal damage.
"This is the new minimum extent of the ice cap," he says, the "frontline of climate change".
In the 1970s, 80s and 90s the minimum extent of polar pack ice fell by around 8% per decade.
