aAdjusted for age, education, first language, computer experience, physical activity, alcohol consumption, diabetes, dark fish consumption, percentage of residential census tract that is nonwhite, percentage of residential census tract adults with a college degree, indicator for first cognitive assessment, and indicator for part-time resident.
We improve the GRA by introducing variation rate into the calculation of sequence difference, which enhances the correlation degree between indicators.
Therefore, based on impact degree of indicators regarding desertification susceptibility, more than 20% of Taybad-Bakharz region shows susceptible and prone area to desertification.
To illuminate those different stages or degrees of indicator operationalization, access to credit is introduced as one dimension of drought resilience in rural areas of east India (Jülich 2013, 2015).
The independent variables in the second regression logistic analysis were the betweenness, closeness and degree centrality indicators, as was the case in the first regression, with the addition of the authority centrality, eigenvector centrality, hub centrality, and out-degree centrality measures.
We consider linear systems and we focus on the SISO case and use the McMillan degree as an indicator of complexity.
While this finding is consistent with previous research showing growth of Internet connections in the Middle East [10, 20], it also provides additional empirical support for the emergence of these Middle Eastern countries as an important community (using node degree as the indicator) within the upper ten percentile tail of the global Internet.
From eq 2 the optode response function for the activity of the primary ion can be derived using mass and charge balances and the protonation degree of the indicator (see the Supporting Information for details): 3where LT, RT, and IndT are the total molar concentrations of ionophore, ion exchanger, and indicator in the membrane.
In order to evaluate if this gain of regulatory activity in colon tumor cells may be related to somatic mutations we studied the degree distribution (as indicator of regulatory activity) for TFs and target genes, classified as frequently mutated (if present in COSMIC database) or not [ 10].
As established by Ravasz and Barabasi [ 25], the dependence of clustering coefficient on the node degree is an indicator of what is known as "hierarchical modularity": the network nodes are randomly connected to form modules and modules are randomly connected for form larger modules; this process repeats to form the entire network.
The observed between-city heterogeneity was explained by two variables: the city's average number of residents in a housing unit and the city's 30-year average of annual heating degree days, an indicator of the typical number of heating days in a year (p-value = 0.50 for the test for residual heterogeneity).
