Mergers have turned a fragmented loss-making industry into one with three big firms: CWC, 53% owned by Cable and Wireless, formed last year out of a four-way merger.
In many parts of the world, landscapes have become fragmented by habitat loss, resulting in increased distances between patches of semi-natural or natural habitats, decreased population sizes, and loss of species (Hanski 2011).
When patches of flowers are further apart than the visual range of pollinators, such as in fragmented landscapes, the loss of scent signals may mean that pollinators spend more time searching for patches and less time foraging.
Her multimedia works make connections between fragmented histories of loss and displacement.
The central region of both papain and trypsin treated discs was macro- and microscopically fragmented, with severe loss of metachromasia.
This ion was further fragmented with a loss of 174 Da to yield a MS ion at m/ z 835.62 Da.
The observed worsening of outcomes in surgery as a result of RDH restrictions may be related to an increased frequency of handovers, which cause fragmented care and loss of crucial information.
However, the European range has declined and fragmented due to the loss of traditional pastoral farming, persecution and perhaps disturbance at breeding and nesting sites, although the numbers in France, Great Britain and Ireland may now have stabilised.
Here we extend the application of metacommunity theory to the problem of extinction and provide new results for the rate and extent of species loss in fragmented landscapes.
Mitochondria displayed degenerative features with swollen appearance, fragmented cristae and partial loss of inner matrix.
An increase in Sub G0 cells is due to loss of fragmented DNA as a result of apoptosis from permeabilised cells (ethanol fixed) due to DNA fragmentation.
