Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), also called Initial Eocene Thermal Maximum (IETM), a short interval of maximum temperature lasting approximately 100,000 years during the late Paleocene and early Eocene epochs (roughly 55 million years ago).
Such an increase varies between ∼ 90 and 440% in the interval of maximum alternating stresses investigated in the present work.
The lead times, defined as the times from the arrival of the shock to the start of the 3-h interval of maximum Kp, are also presented.
This expansion, estimated at approximately 60 000 years BP (99 000–36 000 years BP 95% CI), encompasses a transition from a warm and dry time period prior to 50 000 years BP to an interval of maximum precipitation (50 000–36 000 years BP).
Then, for each recipient in the DCD group we selected an individual from the DBD group by matching on the log of the estimated propensity score, using a nearest-neighbour matching algorithm with callipers (an interval) of maximum width of 0.2 SDs.
Briefly, acute seroconverters included individuals with laboratory evidence of seroconversion and those with an interval of maximum three months between the last negative and the first positive HIV-antibody test (mid-point between the dates is used to estimate the time of infection).
The so-called dynamic overlapping strategy is to compute the reads overlapped with seed in intervals composed of maximum overlap and minimum overlap.
For further analysis, the spectral power in the interval of maximum-induced gamma amplitudes (150 400 ms after stimulus onset, see Results) extending over three adjacent time windows was averaged for each subject.
