When the leaf litter depth of shelterbelts was experimentally increased, the abundance of coccinellids decreased, whereas an experimental decrease in porosity tended to have the opposite effect.
To the contrary, experimentally increasing the work of breathing increased severity of quadriceps fatigue [24, 43].
By experimentally increasing or decreasing compensational brain activity, its potential and limits can be further investigated.
Overall, the number of animals increased in areas with experimentally increased microhabitat area.
Whereas running with experimentally increased knee flexion ('Groucho running') has been shown to increase the oxygen demand of running by as much as 50% [176].
By experimentally increasing or decreasing compensational brain activity, e.g. by deep brain stimulation, its potential and limits can be further investigated.
Hence, the temperature was gradually and manually increased, and when the voltage reached 40 V, the temperature experimentally increased to 15°C and remained in that value to the end.
Following our prediction, when exposed to experimentally increased perceived predation risk from owls, Strix aluco (a bird that can prey on birds solely outside their roosting cavity), individuals increased total sleep duration.
On the basis of prior studies we hypothesized that experimentally increasing the salience of depth cues would lead to an improvement in respondents' test performance that is more pronounced in females than males.
Furthermore, it was only in areas where the amount of land under AES was experimentally increased, by targeting farmers, that the presence of hedgerow trees resulted in a substantially higher abundance (+60%) and diversity (+38%) of moths.
