Different from the Iraqi control sample, the Marsh Arab gene pool displays a very scarce input from the northern Middle East (Hgs J2-M172 anderivativeses, G-M201 and E-M123), virtually lacks western Eurasian (Hgs R1-M17, R1-M412 and R1-L23) and sub-Saharan African (Hg E-M2) contributions.
Because free trade tends to raise returns to the abundant input to production (in America, capital) and lower returns to the scarce input (in America, labor), it tends to benefit capital at labor's expense.

Entrants can also create barriers by securing scarce inputs or locations for themselves, investing preemptively in capacity, generating network effects, or developing cost advantages by racing down the experience curve.
This involves working towards optimal use of scarce inputs, to achieve the greatest production of aquatic products taking into consideration competing uses to which those inputs might be put by society.
This paper was designed to analyze, interpret and evaluate a set of monitoring data collected along a regular-nourished coastal stretch with dredged sand (Barra-Vagueira coastal stretch, northwest coast of Portugal), surrounded by an energetic hydrodynamic environment with a scarce natural sediment input.
The Benassal Fm was deposited in a carbonate ramp with scarce siliciclastic input.
"Wood was a scarce resource.
