Once, as with the scientific treatment of African soils, a much greater uniformity was attributed to the vegetation than would have been generally acceptable in the same period for treatments of the lands of western Europe or the United States.
For instance, Descheemaeker et al. (2006) has found higher runoff under old Eucalyptus plantations (greater than 20 years), which was attributed to limited understorey vegetation cover.
Possible explanation for these regional differences in child survival can be attributed to variations in vegetation across the regions.
This change in spring dust storm dynamics is attributed to the shift in vegetation green-up dates based on the analysis of a satellite derived vegetation index.
The broad trends within the two data sets are in general accordance, and variation between them is attributed to local variation in vegetation heterogeneity.
Vertical stratification of epiphyte assemblages is well documented and generally attributed to microclimatic gradients within vegetation (e.g. Zotz 2007).
To account for the variation in prediction accuracy that might be attributed to the differences in vegetation and land use types, the best LMM (i.e., LMM with variance structure) was further evaluated for different vegetation and land use types.
Further, the genetic diversity in E. ockendeni dates from the Miocene and therefore cannot be attributed to climatic and associated vegetation changes of the past two million years, as has been suggested by proponents of the refuge theory [ 11, 20, 54].
This may in part be attributed to the lack of vegetation coverage and abundance of dry, exposed soil, and construction sites in the city of Beijing and its surrounding areas, especially during the winter seasons.
As well as pH levels increasing with compost amendment, there is a decrease in the number of iron- and sulfur-oxidizers attributed to acid production and vegetation death in pyritic tailings.
