For analyses of intestinal worm burden and per capita fecundity as response variables, GLMs with a negative binomial error structure were used.
The Beddington-DeAngelis type functional response of per capita feeding rate can be expressed as follows: F x,y)=frac{axy}{1+px+qy}, where a (units: time−1) represents the effects of capture rate on the feeding rate, p (units: prey−1) denotes the effects of handling time on the feeding rate, q (units: predator−1) represents the magnitude of interference among predators.
"You can measure eyeballs watching, but that doesn't tell you if it's sinking in," said Mr. Hunter, who sold his direct response agency to invest in Capita, which he took public.
As previously noted, economic performance during the Bush-era expansion was relatively poor, income tax revenue immediately fell in response, and in real per capita terms tax revenue has never recovered.
Prior to conducting wavelet analyses, the time series data were loge transformed and differenced in order to use the per capita rate of change of incidence as the response variable.
(C ) In contrast, if cooperation is the best-of-a-bad-job strategy as a response to intraspecific challenges, the per capita reproductive success will be lower in groups than solitary pairs.
The response rate of the variable income per capita was low (69.7%).
As stochasticity was modeled as random deviations from mean carrying capacity and per capita recruitment, it might have little effect on mean responses of evolving traits and length-at-age patterns.
That a nation of 11 million people, with a GDP of $6,051 per capita, is leading the effort says much of the international response.
The private expenditure on health increased by 1.128% in response to a one percent point increase in GDP per capita.
We examined the potential for a trait-mediated indirect interaction (TMII), whereby a behavioural response to a predator (crab Cancer borealis) alters the per capita effect of a reacting species (sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis) on its algal food (kelp Saccharina latissima), in field and laboratory experiments.
