In general, assemblage B has been detected in only a small number of cattle in a few studies worldwide, including in Europe, Italy, Portugal, Uganda, New Zealand, and Canada [ 2, 30].
What is most obvious from the general assemblage quantification is that all regions of the skeleton are represented within the cave assemblage, in spite of potential preservation and/or recovery bias.
In general, the assemblage was quantitatively more abundant and diverse in spring–summer than in autumn winter.
In general, this assemblage showed strong taxonomic overlap with the fauna from the fore reef habitats, though with a significant reduction in total richness and notable shifts in relative dominance.
Thirteen percent of target species favoured old growth, but in general, the beetle assemblages in old growth resembled those in mature commercial forest.
In general, bone infaunal assemblages were dominated by nematodes, especially in vertebrae without Osedax (ca. 77%) where organisms were only found in bone outer layers, showing a colonization pattern similar to that described for bacteria.
However, studying patterns in diversity and community composition across sites can help identify general characteristics of assemblages likely to either hinder or facilitate effective reserve design.
Despite this gross simplification, some of the macroecological patterns produced by these models (for example, species-abundance distributions) are surprisingly close to those observed in nature [ 11], suggesting that they arise from the general statistics of assemblages rather than being of biological origin.
In general, the mineral assemblage preserved in a metamorphic rock is frozen at the highest temperature experienced during metamorphism (see above Retrograde metamorphism), and thus the facies and facies series to which the rock would be assigned reflect only a single point on its P-T-t path.
The general clay mineral assemblage in the 22/29-2 and 22/29-3 setsle sets consists of authigenic chlorite and authigenic illite.
