Sentence examples for earlier sizes from inspiring English sources

Eradicating introduced browsers is currently unfeasible at large scales, but culling since the 1960s has successfully reduced populations to a fraction of their earlier sizes.

Higher predation frequently leads to earlier size and age at reproduction (Abrams 1986a).

Thermal properties of lipid-coated SPIONs at 0.02 mg/mL in different buffer systems were comparable suggesting limited surface adsorption of buffer components onto lipid-coated nanoparticles which is consistent with the earlier size analysis (see Table 1).

This also meant that earlier size estimates had been exaggerated.

What is surprising is that these early sizes seem to be largely maintained over the course of a trout's life.

The earliest size invariant visual secret sharing scheme was proposed by Kafri and Keren [16] in 1987, named as "encryption of pictures by random grids" at that time.

Teeth from lower Lower Cretaceous rocks (140 to 136 million years old) of Hyogo, Japan, appear to have come from an approximately 5 m long animal, possibly indicating an early size increase in the lineage.

The 'early model' relates early size (e.g. birth weight) to later outcome (e.g. adult fibrinogen level).

If this is the case, our estimates of heritability of body size (body length = 0.25) will be dominated by processes that generate and maintain early size differences.

We observed very high repeatability of body size following age-0 autumn (0.73), suggesting that early size differences could be largely maintained throughout life.

Based on the analyses of multiple recaptures of individual fish, it appears that size distributions are largely determined by the maintenance of early size variation.
