From a defensive standpoint, one of the marquee ways that Atlanta and the rest of the league wants to attack Indiana is by spreading the floor and mitigating the size advantage with a rim protector like Hibbert.
In our meta-analysis this effect may have mitigated the size of the observed decrease in reported effect size.
Because it can effectively mitigate the provenance size explosion, the block provenance scheme is probably the only one that can be applied in extremely large-scale WSNs.
However, it is interesting to note that the modification that better approximates the eyewitness situation (i.e. mismatch of faces at test and study in Experiment 2) mitigated the effect size and Bayesian evidence.
For example, although the genotypes were relatively similar in shape, colonies of the Hudson genotype tended to contain more voids (i.e., regions lacking cells) than the other two genotypes used (Fig. 1), which could enhance the diffusion of solutes into and out of the colony and so mitigate the effect of increasing size [8], [61].
These findings suggest that, in addition to directly affecting service utilization, a higher proportion of well-educated individuals in the population may mitigate the pressure of population size and aging on service utilization.
Second, a systematic review of evidence for the effectiveness of interventions to reduce exposure to larger sizes, or to mitigate the effects of exposure to larger sizes (that is, studies outside the scope of this review), may be needed, possibly followed by further, new primary studies of such interventions and policies.
A theoretical study on Arctic cod has shown that fishing with a dome-shaped size-selectivity curve could mitigate the evolution of mean age and size at maturation (Jørgensen et al. 2009), but whether this could also avoid significant losses of functional genetic variance remains to be examined.
Additional tree species could partly mitigate the negative effect of tree size heterogeneity on stand productivity.
Our programs are national and international in scope and include collaborative, multidisciplinary research and conservation efforts at long-term field sites; state-of-the-art laboratories that develop innovative methods in molecular genetics and nutrition; and sustained efforts to assess and mitigate the consequences of small population size for animals in both zoo and natural systems.
