However, most predictions of the effects of climate change on species' distributions are limited to correlative models of the realized niche, which assume that species are in distributional equilibrium with respect to the variables or gradients included in the model.
Our understanding of the lipid abnormalities associated with CKD and proteinuria are limited to correlative studies and targeting reductions in LDL.
It is concluded that the need for replication at single sites means that this approach has limited use for correlative purposes, although dating of sediments is important for understanding wider landscape evolution and patterns of human occupation.
Our study is limited by the correlative nature of expression changes in our in vivo and ex vivo models and the use of a proliferative cell line for mechanistic studies.
The above-mentioned studies remain descriptive and correlative and allow limited mechanistic explanation of the underlying functional processes, especially in terms of water uptake and water-use dynamics.
Although genome-wide correlative data are limited due to the relatively few integrated markers and gaps in the genome assembly, comparisons so far indicate that the genetic and physical maps are colinear.
In combination, these data demonstrate the inherent limits of correlative relationships identified in our OA cohort.
Consequently, without coherent monitoring programmes that examine demographic parameters in the context of a suite of environmental indices, inferences are necessarily limited and some conclusions may be merely correlative.
On this view, the scope of strong moral duties those that are the correlatives of others' rights—is jurisdictionally limited and does not extend to resources for producing the Good that would not exist in the absence of those intruded upon that is, their bodies, labors, and talents.
Also, sample size was limited by the availability of specimens, a challenge inherent in most optional correlative science studies.
