Differences between sampling effort (number of stations) and replication did not bias the overall conclusions.
The research is unique in terms of the scale of the data collection effort (number of commodities and interviews) and in its scope (multi-tier networks).
Figure 6 Relation between the implementation effort (number of weeks) and the not corrected complexity (as defined in Section 3).
Biological data were Hellinger-transformed before the analysis and the effects of sampling effort (number of years sampled and total number of replicates) were assessed first.
Whereas an increase in richness to 200 m depth was observed in both studies, no evidence was found to support a LSDG once sampling effort (number of stations, area sampled) and depth covariates were removed [63], [53].
Various standardized parameters of reproductive effort (number of litters/pups/weanlings or duration of lactation per 2 years, etc.; Table 1) were calculated for each breeding female in order to test whether they affected the female's life expectancies.
Differences among sites in sampling effort (number of sampled years and replicated samples within years) were significant and accounted for 9% and 7% of variation in genus and family data, respectively (RDA).
From the life table data, fecundity (number of eggs per rotifer per lifetime), number of reproductive days, reproductive effort (number of eggs per reproductive days), eggs produced till 10-d-old, age at the first reproduction, and longevity were calculated.
Figure 3 shows the relationship between means and sds of estimated relatedness and the mean depth of each SNP when the total sequencing effort (number of SNPs times mean depth) is fixed at 10,000.
In Figure 4 the seasonal distribution of effort (number of tans set) by 10 day period is plotted for 1988, and in Figure 5 effort is plotted by 1 degree square for the 1988 fishery.
