The capacity of indigenous microorganisms to degrade organic pollutants within an environment matrix can however be enhanced, either through stimulation by adding substrates and nutrients for example, or by the addition of contaminant-degrading microorganisms (Karlson et al. 1995; Sheehan 1997).
Besides two different analytical tools necessary to determine the size of the NM under consideration, it is central to conduct the measurements in the most meaningful environment (matrix).
The gist of the method is to improve Gianchandani's method by employing two columns instead of one to delineate the presence and absence of a unique envionment cue respectively, by which a new environment matrix E n e w is constructed.
For species richness analyses, we used two different environment matrices, one based on all nine environmental variables (environmental distance) and one based on three climate variables (climatic distance).
Using the Matlab environment, matrices of data are compared with baseline using the Student t test, since a sufficient number of observations will be available.
For instance, matrices M i may be the same for some environments, or matrices D k ∗ may be proportional to each other.
"AOL is a complicated environment with matrix management," said Dennis R. Patrick, who hired Ms. Hook three times, most recently as the No. 2 executive in AOL's wireless division, which he ran until last year.
Arrays of a large number of quantum dots including multilayer heterostructures make it possible to create artificial "solids" whose properties can be controllably changed by varying the characteristics of constituent elements ("atoms") and/or the environment (semiconductor matrix).
Dexamethasone and triamcinolone suppress the cell viability of human tendon in its natural 3-dimensional environment with matrix anchorage.
Considerable attention has been given to the role of the extracellular environment, its matrix composition, and matrix tension in mediating the differences in cancer cell invasion.
