However, because of higher than expected background levels, and anticipated further increases in luminosity and dose rates, we have done a thorough study to assess the viability of operating the SVT until the end of the decade.
Under these conditions the point estimates for the observed incidence rates were higher than the expected background incidence rates calculated from US data (95% CIs overlapped), but not using baseline data from the Netherlands (Table 3).
The Ril8tumor for all IL-8 tumor genes are greater than 38%, which is much higher than the expected background ratio between IL-8-tumor clones (171521, Table 1) and general tumor clones (864428, Table 1).
Laboratory isotopic values for RDX-derived NO3− produced a trend of high δ18O-low δ15N to low δ18O-high δ15N, and groundwater samples with nitrate concentrations above the expected background level appeared along this trend.
This means that a weight equal to one is the same rate as the background substitution rate, and a weight equal to 10 has a 10-fold higher expected substitution per site per unit time than the background.
This outcome could be a consequence of the expected higher background signal on chromosomal origins.
Of 17 orthologs present in the Rotaria transcriptomes, three were judged to have been lost in R. magnacalcarata and R. socialis, which is a higher ratio than expected from background rates of loss of foreign orthologs in those species (94/3,514 orthologs, Monte-Carlo simulation, chi-sq = 14.7, P = 0.0094).
Since GB123 is not quenched, it showed the expected high background signals at the early time points as previously reported [4].
In addition, ten mutations within mitochondrial protein-coding, tRNA and rRNA genes showed significantly higher recurrent rate than expected from background mutational signature (Supplementary file 5).
