However, the recipe may not be valid for megathrust earthquakes with magnitudes 8 and larger because the characterized source model lacks heterogeneity smaller than asperities, which may not be negligible in simulating ground motion for engineering purposes.
Because the source model lacks heterogeneity with corresponding periods shorter than T C, ground motion tends to be underestimated in the period range between T C and T cross for M W 8 earthquakes.
The case-control studies on prostate cancer, oral cancer, gallbladder cancer and ECC lacked heterogeneity (p = 0.24, 0.33, 0.27 and 0.81, respectively) (Table 2).
The heterogeneity test showed that studies on the effects of alcohol consumption on female EC and gastric cancer and on male pancreatic cancer lacked heterogeneity (p = 0.88, 0.34 and 0.93).
Such a small sample lacks heterogeneity (i.e. diversity) and does not approximate the normal distribution [ 87].
For factors associated with suicide ideation in the rest of the population, studies lacked heterogeneity, except for those of physical illness (P < 0.00001) [ 28- 32].
Variables included in the model were pre-selected according to hypothesised relevance and data availability, excluding variables that were collinear or lacked heterogeneity.
As for education and completed suicide, when we excluded study data collected after 2000 [ 7], the studies [ 7, 8] using data collected before 2000 lacked heterogeneity.
The heterogeneity test showed that studies of the effects of physical illness [ 13, 28, 39] and suicide of relatives [ 9, 11] on youth suicide ideation lacked heterogeneity, but studies on the effect of gender and mood disorder had significant heterogeneity (P < 0.00001).
Because this definition is lacking, perfusion heterogeneity was simulated with a Gaussian noise of zero mean distributed on the gray matter.
