Over a seven-year period, we monitored along a theory of change to evaluate assumptions about the causal linkages between intermediate results and biological outcomes.
In this study, we compare dispersive modeling and sand-tank experiments to the results of sharp-interface models to evaluate assumptions regarding vertical fluxes in coastal multi-aquifer systems.
In this paper, an idealized, high-resolution simulation of a gradually forced transition from shallow, nonprecipitating to deep, precipitating cumulus convection is described; how the cloud and transport statistics evolve as the convection deepens is explored; and the collected statistics are used to evaluate assumptions in current cumulus schemes.
Preliminary analyses were carried out to evaluate assumptions for the t test.
Despite decades of theoretical development of brightness models, it has been challenging to empirically evaluate assumptions underlying the models.
In order to make sense of the inherent complexity of the landscape system, we used a spatially-explicit hypothesis-driven approach to evaluate assumptions of species response to threats, environmental factors and management interventions.
Despite the need for laboratory experiments that evaluate assumptions about stable isotope ecology, few such experiments have been performed on ectothermic terrestrial vertebrates.
Harrell FE Jr, Lee KL, Mark DB. Multivariable prognostic models: issues in developing models, evaluating assumptions and adequacy, and measuring and reducing errors.
The runaway success of Fifty Shades had forced the entire publishing industry to re-evaluate assumptions of what makes books sell".For years, centuries even, the publishing industry and literary world's definition of good was the only one that mattered.
After evaluating assumptions of linearity, normality, and equal variances, we simultaneously included the three amalgam exposure measures that were most strongly correlated with the U-Hg measure in a repeated-measures regression model.
