Comparing the time points from the heat-selected lines reveals a linear increase in survival over the course of selection (linear model with time: F1,4 = 10.04, P = 0.0397; quadratic terms: F1,5 = 0.23, P = 0.6485), culminating with nearly 85% of individuals surviving heat shock in the final generation.
The diameter of stems used by crows in trials of Experiment 1 changed (non-significantly) over the course of the season (linear mixed model [LMM]: χ2 = 5.75, P = 0.06), peaking in October (Fig. 5b).
In good novels, these functions combine to approximate not only the reality of life, which is of course linear and time-bound, but also, crucially, life's tendency to defy abstraction and deflate our pretentions to make fools of us.

Of course, linear movement is just a first-order approximation of the true movement of clusters, a more complex method can be found in [41].
) This course covers the fundamentals of linear system theory.
This course provides unified coverage of linear algebra and multivariable differential calculus.
The course gives a review of linear vector spaces and differential equations.
This course covers a combination of linear algebra and multivariate calculus with an eye towards solving systems of equations and optimization problems.
Not all forms of adaptation were excluded, of course, by the simulation of linear decay as a potential mechanism for the convergence seen in Figure 3 c.
