However, research on fragmentation is slowly shifting from a focus on coarse patterns to more nuanced representations of biodiversity and landscapes that better represent ecological processes.
When you have data sets this big — in the hundreds of millions of examples — how can you sort it and observe it even at a gross level so that people can find coarse patterns and ideas worth pursuing?
DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.11282.010 Having found that coarse patterns of divergence are comparable among patients, we asked whether intrapatient diversity at individual sites in the viral genome follows general and predictable patterns.
By application of a small r value (e.g. r = 0.2 sd), ApEn evaluates fine (sub) patterns in the time series, and a larger r value (e.g. r = 1.0 sd) is applied to evaluate more coarse patterns.
Lappet weaving is generally confined to coarse pattern yarns and can be distinguished from swivel by its interlacing with weft rather than with warp yarns.
From measurement of magnetic fields and motions, a coarse pattern of supergranules, each some 30,000 km (19,000 miles) in diameter, has been observed.
In the far north there is only a faint pattern on a whitish background; in humid temperate forests, a bold pattern on a sooty background; in desert areas, a medium-to-fine pattern on pale gray; in arid tropics, a fine pattern on rufous; and in humid tropics, a coarse pattern on fulvous.
The mechanisms responsible for this phenomenon are yet unknown as influence of the geomagnetic field can explain only the coarse pattern of longitudinal changes of the equatorial anomaly but not its fine structure.
c Absolute plateau airway pressure (whole bar) (Inspiratory volume P < 0.001, Outcome P = 0.107, Interaction P = 0.970), plateau airway pressure minus PEEP (coarse pattern) (Inspiratory volume P < 0.001, Outcome P < 0.001, Interaction P = 0.437), PEEP (no pattern) (Inspiratory volume P = 0.024, Outcome P = 0.271, Interaction P = 0.723).
Total energy at peak airway pressure (entire bar) (Inspiratory volume P < 0.001, Outcome P < 0.001, Interaction = 0.804), dynamic energy at peak airway pressure (coarse pattern) (Inspiratory volume P = 0.005, Outcome P < 0.001, Interaction = 0.597), static energy at peak airway pressure (no pattern) (Inspiratory volume P = 0.002, Outcome P = 0.333, Interaction = 0.618).
a Total end-inspiratory volume (mL/kg, whole bar) (Inspiratory volume P < 0.001, Outcome P = 0.073, Interaction = 0.067), tidal volume (mL/kg, coarse pattern) (Inspiratory volume P = 0.106, Outcome P = 0.040, Interaction P = 0.908), PEEP volume (mL/kg, no pattern) (Inspiratory volume P < 0.001, Outcome P = 0.306, Interaction P = 0.537).
