The genus Miscanthus has been considered attractive as a feedstock for cellulosic biofuel production because the plants are adapted to temperate latitudes yet utilize the energy-efficient C4 photosynthetic pathway, producing high yields of biomass but with low-nutrient requirements, adaptation to marginal land due to resistance to abiotic stress, and not competing with use for food [ 1- 3].
For example, sampling sites of the Kuroshio Current and South China Sea were grouped with sites in the Mediterranean Sea, which were all situated at similar latitudes (38° 40°N) yet on distinctly different longitudes.
The sheet's surface at this latitude didn't yet show signs of the summer thaw — typically marked by pools and creeks of sapphire-blue meltwater — but it appeared to spread forever in all directions, not smooth but rippled, and veined with long, sinuous glacial lines.
Summary: Look at a world map, and you'll notice that England is at the same latitude as Newfoundland, yet Newfoundland's climate is frigid compared to England's.
CWD has not been observed in Rocky Mountain moose (Alces alces shirasi) or in caribou at higher latitudes (Rangifer tarandus), yet both species overlap the geographical range of Odocoileus species.
They concluded that rail operating companies should be given yet more latitude to run the service for longer – 15 years – free of Department of Transport "micro-management".
While the vertical profiles individually resemble many of those shown previously in this paper, the nature of the variations over latitude is unlike anything yet shown.
This seems a short delay for propagation of expected solar wind effects, for example through the Dungey cycle (Cowley 2000), (Zhang et al. 2015), yet the low latitude seems to speak against more direct effects such as those possible near the cusp.
The committee's report stated that the clause defining the northern boundary depended on "a fact not yet ascertained" (the latitude of the southern extreme of Lake Michigan), and the members "thought it unnecessary to take it [the provision], at the time, into consideration".
