Removing data for the dominant Nothofagus taxon did not alter the apparent dominance of Proteaceae species, though the abundance and types of species changed.
While some researchers 'improve' their chronology results by removing data for poorly correlated cores (e.g. Fowler and Boswijk [2003]), all available data is included here.
To gauge the likelihood of this interpretation, we considered whether removing data for the three deafened birds who sang the most (2,240, 2,013 and 1,566 secs) would reveal a correlation.
A further conservative analysis was also conducted by removing data for all participants with any missing data.
We also tested the sensitivity of the LR results to any one particular species by removing data for each species and repeating LR analyses.
We implemented another sensitivity test by removing data for all children with a history of early chest illness, including croup, bronchitis, bronchiolitis, or pneumonia (Table 6).
Firstly, after removing data for the sex chromosomes, we constructed a table defining the FR for each locus and assigned classes e.g. blast crisis (BC), chronic phase (CP) and Control; Lymphoid or Myeloid; Male or Female.
Removing data for crossover studies except where exact t-test or P-values were available resulted in similar results to the main analysis, except that confidence intervals were generally widened slightly due to the loss of some power.
