Sentence examples for decreasing light from inspiring English sources

For example, a 5% reduction in voltage could double the life of a bulb while only decreasing light output by 20%.

Root growth during the wet season was reduced with decreasing light transmissivity in the shade intolerant P. halepensis, but not in the shade tolerant Quercus ilex.

Previous work during a major sediment resuspension event (March 1988) in southern Lake Michigan demonstrated that nutrients and carbon derived from resuspended sediment stimulated intense winter heterotrophic production while simultaneously decreasing light availability and autotrophic biomass.

The oil layer formed could, for example, affect photosynthesis by decreasing light penetration, and decrease the amount of dissolved oxygen and temperature, which could affect the survival of several aquatic species.

Although the transmission below 450 nm is indeed lower than Al2O3 and Al2O3/ZrO2 films, the transmission increases due to the decreasing light scattering (Additional file 1: Figure S1).

On precessional (20 23 ka) and suborbital time scales, the occurrence and timing of reef growth events, broad-scale reef geometry, architecture, and stratigraphy have been controlled by increasing paleo depths, associated with abrupt eustatic sea-level rise concurrent with decreasing light, decreasing sediment flux and increasing nutrients.

For thermoreversible photochromic molecules, increasing the temperature increases the rate of the thermal bleaching reaction, thus decreasing light-stimulated colouration.

Turbid water decreases light infiltration, and affects photosynthesis and aquatic life.

Such changes result in discoloration, decreased light absorption, decreased fluorescence, and a shift in the wavelength of maximum absorption.

The ear exam revealed auricular tenderness of both ears, with bulging tympanic membranes and decreased light reflex.

Lastly, however, a very thick ZnO layer will destroy the nanoarray morphology, which is not good for light trapping and results in decreased light absorption.
