Sentence examples for anthropogenic contexts from inspiring English sources

Anthropogenic contexts that favor changes in selective conditions are also likely to involve changes to environmental conditions that could directly influence the expression of phenotypes through plasticity (Hendry et al. 2011).

Trait change associated with the harvest of wild populations averages three times faster than nonanthropogenic rates and occurs even faster than most other anthropogenic contexts (Darimont et al. 2009).

While this metric was initially intended for measuring morphological changes in the fossil record, it has increasingly been applied to the study of contemporary phenotypic change (e.g., Hendry and Kinnison 1999), especially in anthropogenic contexts (Jørgensen et al. 2007; Darimont et al. 2009; Sharpe and Hendry 2009).

Hence, if harvest really does drive the fastest rates of evolution (Darimont et al. 2009), then phenotypic rate comparisons of natural and anthropogenic contexts would be expected to show greater differences than genetic comparisons simply due to bias in the available data.

Indeed, the analysis of Hendry et al. (2008) found that differences between anthropogenic and natural contexts were only statistically apparent when assessing 'phenotypic' studies of evolution – i.e., those studies that did not use common garden rearing or statistical approaches to isolate genetic effects.

Establishing the timing and rate of CO2 changes in the past provides critical insight into the mechanisms that influence the carbon cycle and helps put present and future anthropogenic emissions in context.

In order to place the emission of this anthropogenic heat in context, it was thus compared against the net short wave solar radiation captured within the urban environment.

In work first reported in the January February 2006 issue of the Journal of Environmental Quality, Shappell has also begun quantifying the background levels of estrogenic activity of surface waters in order to put the anthropogenic contributions in context.

These simulations are specifically designed for understanding extreme weather and atmospheric variability in the context of anthropogenic climate change.

At Berkeley, he will be studying physiological adaptation to environmental change in intertidal crustaceans, specifically in the context of anthropogenic climate change.

Does Tobis manage to refute point 2. Arctic methane hydrates are becoming increasingly unstable in the context of anthropogenic climate change and it's impact on diminishing sea ice?
