Direct normal radiation (DNR) and global horizontal irradiance (GHI), which are measures of suitability for concentrating solar power (CSP) and photovoltaic (PV), range between 2000 and 2500 kWh/m2/year in the Middle East region [15].
Although comorbidity and PS measure different things (the number of concurrent health conditions over a period of time before cancer diagnosis and general health status at the time of lung cancer diagnosis, respectively), both variables may be used as surrogate measures of suitability for treatment (Ludbrook et al, 2003).
The data used give a measure of suitability for each tractor and for each item, as well as an analysis of misfits that constitute a quality control for the data being considered.
For instance, by referring to grass as 'touchable', herders are noting a measure of suitability for sheep on pastures grazed short, in effect reachable by the small stock while unusable by cattle.
The Irritable Bowel Syndrome-Behavioral Responses Questionnaire (IBS-BRQ) [ 53], which only measures IBS-related avoidance and control behaviors, could have proved to be a better measure of suitability for the treatment.
These relevant outcome measures were explored for suitability using evidence in literature then discussed among clinical experts.
The intervention was developed with significant stakeholder involvement, a range of primary outcome measures were tested for suitability and the process for collecting resource utilisation data was identified.
We provide evidence that, at broad scales, habitat identification that includes logging roads and wolves provides a better measure of suitability of an area for caribou occupation than does forest cover alone.
Other cited advantages of disease specific outcome measures include suitability for self-administration, brevity, simplicity of administration and calculation of summary scores and low cost [ 18].
This was the first time that the T-TPQ was tested for suitability for measuring the impact of an experiential learning intervention among nursing students.
