Considering the extant knowledge of human information processing and emerging technological trends, the chapter looks forward to a likely future aviation system.
Rather, we demonstrate that an ecological assessment of place can be facilitated, and long-term management enhanced, through the codification and delivery of extant knowledge of broad ecological systems to resource managers and other stakeholders.
Many of the predicted pairs of PPI-linked processes fit well with extant knowledge of cellular function.
The immediate results of these discussions were the formation of the Ocean Biogeographic Information System (OBIS), a system of databases in which extant knowledge was collected, and the History of Marine Animal Populations (HMAP) project, which endeavoured to survey historical data for indications of human impact on the oceans.
The new evaluation uses the extant knowledge base to improve: (1) design, (2) measures, and (3) utility.
Knowledge of the closest extant relatives of the genotypes involved in the initial formation of B. napus would also allow further investigation of the genetic factors required for the formation of a stable amphiploid and permit the more efficient creation of fully fertile re-synthesised B. napus.
Both the questions and the answers meandered more or less purposefully through extant knowledge, with much reference to established sources.
The study "continues to expand our knowledge of the phylogenetic diversity of extant life on Earth," says microbiologist Ed DeLong of the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute in Moss Landing, California.
However, it requires the knowledge of the distribution of all extant local populations, a kind of information that may not be available for all case studies.
Knowledge of the representation of MACITs in other extant metazoans is lacking.
