The changes in river flow regimes due to urban spread were differentiated from climate variability using the GR4J conceptual hydrological model.
For example, the neutrally distinct Klickitat River and Yakima River groups were each split to show some association to climate, most Clearwater and Salmon river groups with similar climates were combined on the same basal node or primary branch of the tree, and the five lower Clearwater River populations were differentiated by climate distinctions.
What differentiates the Climate CoLab, Malone said, is that it is not limited to a single, narrowly-defined competition.
(Interview 4, Female)" When asked if they could differentiate between climate change, global warming and environmental change, 41% of participants (n = 9) stated that they are interchangeable.
Finally, the eight items selected for the final model correlated well with the 24 items from the Stringer gold standard instrument, indicating that the WCA scale captures the same underlying construct as the Stringer scale in differentiating the climates of work groups.
The effects of climate on mammals are complex and these results cannot be extrapolated globally; research is needed to differentiate how global climate change affects mammals in different regions and of different life history to provide insight into how current global warming will affect extant species.
However, the current trend for each retailer or company to develop its own labels and performance measures may actually perpetuate this barrier; while own brand labels may enable customers to differentiate between the climate change impacts of that retailers' products, they do not necessarily allow for meaningful comparisons to be drawn between different retailers' products.
The climate is sharply differentiated between the eastern section, which receives more than 40 inches (1,000 mm) of precipitation annually, and the western, which receives considerably less.
Type A climates (the warmest) are differentiated on the basis of the seasonality of precipitation: Af (no dry season), Am (short dry season), or Aw (winter dry season).
Africa north of the Sahara is differentiated from the rest of the continent by its Mediterranean climate and by its long history of political and cultural contacts with peoples outside of Africa.
