In a rapidly growing state like Oregon, what, precisely, are the state's ecological strengths and vulnerabilities?
Ecological interaction strength may increase under environmental stress including temperature.
A better understanding of biodiversity-functioning relationships requires field experiments where variation in ecological interaction strengths are allowed to drive the emergence of natural, non-random patterns of diversity [7], [8], [21] [23].
While spatially explicit, local ecological knowledge displays strengths and limitations that must be explicated for it to prove useful for strengthening "voice" and providing EAM inputs.
Accounting for uncertainty in ecological analysis: the strengths and limitations of hierarchical statistical modeling.
Second, from the positive association between the strength of ecological divergence and reproductive isolation found in other taxa, it is expected that the ecological niche of the two molecular forms of An. gambiae should have diverged less than that of An. gambiae and An.
The results obtained showed that the percent volume of fiber added to the concrete has a direct influence on both the compressive and tensile strength of ecological concrete and that the fiber length has a direct influence on the tensile strength of ecological concrete.
Production of mushroom also showed its strength towards ecological as well as economical points by the transformation of agro-based residues using various microorganisms (Chang 2006; Randive 2012).
The remaining two mechanisms are consequences of environmental influences on the nature and strength of ecological interactions: competition (along edaphic gradients) and pressure from plant enemies (along climatic gradients).
For institutional characteristics, the risk of neonatal adverse outcomes was higher in the secondary hospitals, suggesting an ecological relationship between the strength of the health system, urbanisation, and development status; thus, we treated the hospital grade as a confounding factor to be adjusted.
