We increased the difference in units compared to the threatened categories but, in the same time, we gave it a higher vulnerability score than the least concern category because it contains species that might be threatened presently or in the future.
The higher vulnerability to smaller-than-average patterns can be corrected for by introducing a nonlinear negative feedback which is close to zero for lower-than-average network activity.
Moreover, the M form in Malanville showed higher vulnerability to ITN than did the corresponding S form in Côte d'Ivoire, a finding that seems at odds with a behavioral hypothesis.
When only considering environmental state indicators, sub-watersheds located in higher areas of the Guapi-Macacu watershed tend to have higher vulnerability to anthropogenic pressure than those in the lowlands (Ferreira [2012]).
Given that adolescents exposed to CA have on average a higher vulnerability to mental health problems than adolescents not exposed to CA3, we assume that this heightened vulnerability may go together with lower RF levels, and may influence how RFs interrelate.
14 Considering that adolescents have a tendency to take greater risks than adults 15– 17 and that behaviors established during adolescence may continue into later adolescence and early adulthood, 15, 18, 19 it may be argued that truck drivers who enter the trucking industry in adolescence may have higher vulnerability toward STIs and HIV infection than those who enter the industry as adults.
We hypothesize that juveniles will exhibit dissimilar community composition, faster responses, and higher vulnerability of functional guilds to forest loss than adults.
The baseline eGFR was lower in the global nephrogram group than the combined group, suggesting higher vulnerability to ARF.
African Americans show a higher vulnerability to chronic pain and a higher level of disability than do white patients.
Where CFnonresidential birds was larger than CFwaterbirds, it was mostly due to higher vulnerability scores (VS) and only in few cases due to higher species richness (S).
