The degree of toxin effect was calculated by expressing the remaining current after each drug exposure as a fraction of the current magnitude of the patch prior to the first drug exposure (i.e., fractional current remaining, If).
The conclusions are: (1) the engineering properties induced by the dominant woody plants through patch formation are important in driving ecosystem modulation; (2) the SQI and ANPP trajectories represent the magnitude of change between patch type, and (3) SQI and ANPP are reliable emergent ecosystem properties for evaluating changes of patches formed by woody plants as EEs.
Scaling exponents describe the distribution and magnitude of change in patch size, and may indicate the effect of fire on ecological processes including succession and resource distribution.
Of course, the problem with having an international star of Adele's magnitude on your patch is that the Grammys are going to give her awards as well, drawing comparisons between the US event and the Brits in which the Brits come off worse.
Rank-size distributions describe the patch-size scaling properties of specific land-cover types, the relative effect of large and small patches on the distribution of patch sizes, the magnitude of change in patch size, where patch sizes differ from what is expected by the regression model, and the range of patch sizes displaying fractal patterns.
These processes can greatly exacerbate the magnitude of edge effects as the degree of patch to matrix contrast increases.
However, earlier theoretical studies have shown that the number of patches pinned, the magnitude of pinning, and the migration rate can affect the dynamics of the metapopulation [9], [10], [19], [29].
The effect of patch configuration and thickness on enhancing the fatigue strength by orders of magnitude has been demonstrated.
The maximum magnitude of electron density inside the polar patches was less than 1.4 × 105 el/cm3.
The magnitude of light reflected by white plumage patches depends on the interface between feather keratin and air-filled vacuoles, such that feathers that incorporate larger vacuoles into their structure appear brighter [6].
On the plate boundary, we define stick slip patches according to the magnitude of the interplate earthquakes using Eqs. 1, 3, and 4. The seismic slip of the patches is calculated at the grid points based on the magnitudes of the GCMT and the ISC-GEM catalog earthquakes.
