Sentence examples for dispersal represented from inspiring English sources

Thus, short-distance dispersal represented only 8.8% of the pinewood nematode dispersal.

Seed dispersal represents a critical stage in plant reproduction.

This simplistic view is however confusing since 'repeated dispersal' represents a pattern while 'ancient radiation' implies a process of diversification.

Larval dispersal is represented by a probability distribution that defines the fraction of successful settlers from an arbitrary location, the origin of the distribution, to any other location along the coast.

A common approach to modelling dispersal includes representing the landscape as a grid of equal sized cells and then simulating individual movement as a correlated random walk.

If this was the case then these dispersal events represent range expansion into areas where T. paleacea had previously gone extinct.

One could assume that it is due to the fact that adult movement operates over the entire lifespan of an individual, whereas larval dispersal generally represents a small fraction of the lifespan.

Pr(dispersal distance) represents the relative probability that an individual moves a certain distance between cells compared to other possible distances.

We then used the UD to calculate a "dispersal index" representing the probability of sage-grouse occurrence in each landscape cell given complete juniper removal within that cell.

Elasticity values were summed up across demographic processes (survival, growth, retrogression, fecundity and dispersal) to represent their proportional impact on population growth rates (Silvertown et al., 1993; Fig.  3A).

In the marine realm, pelagic species that have large geographic range and high dispersal capabilities represent a serious challenge to the idea of allopatric divergence (i.e., a large continuous population broken up into smaller units by extrinsic barriers) and to speciation processes in a seemingly continuous environment [ 1].
