For example, in forest systems, hurricane impact can result in tree blow-down, below- and above-ground gap formation, mineral and nutrient leaching and soil erosion (Tanner et al. 1991).
[And there are always tasty vegetarian burger options, as Tara Parker-Pope noted this week.] But given that we're not going to a meat-free society any time soon, and that kids need cheap sources of low-fat protein, I'd like those pushing the "yuck" factor to consider the extra 1.5 million or so head of livestock that will need to be slaughtered to fill the ground beef gap.
Generally the crowns were symmetrical but in some instances crown asymmetry was apparent; for example due to sloping ground and/or gaps in the canopy.
Fig. 4 Details showing a, b multiple layers of paint with variation in color or shade, c exposed ground in gaps between fields, d evidence of paint scraping down to ground layer and overpaint e cracks and oozing blue and red paint and f pencil lines.
Therefore, it is difficult to perform biomedical research using microgravity platforms with the same rigorous logical thoroughness as on ground, and gaps in the logical chain of reasoning often cannot be filled due to limitation of research platforms, both in terms of availability and in terms of the technical and logistic framework.
Labour, by contrast, lost ground meaning the gap between the two parties stands at only 4 per cent.
Sombroek saved the first but the second drew her a foot further out of her ground, leaving a gap for White to slot home Alex Danson's rebound.
In this paper, the authors present a conceptual design for the ground articulating pipeline (GAP) technology to address this problem.
Assigned larger-than-normal frontages to defend along beaches that were ill-suited for defence, the 22nd and 27th Brigades were spread thin on the ground with large gaps in their lines.
Still, like their northern relative, these tropical porcupines move slowly and are unable to jump, so they must descend to the ground to cross gaps between trees.
