Sentence examples for more complex habitats from inspiring English sources

Simple hedgerows in this landscape appeared to offer relatively safe nest sites in terms of predation pressure when compared to more complex habitats (complex hedgerows and scrub forest).

For example, although the mesquite shrublands were richer in bird species than the prairie dog colony grasslands, as would be predicted for structurally more complex habitats [33], [34], [35], this result was the opposite from previous research in the area where bird species were three-times more rich in the grasslands than in the shrublands [36].

Continuous advancements in sequencing technologies not only allow for addressing more and more complex habitats but also impose growing demands on bioinformatic data post-processing.

Thus, though no extra time was needed to sight active (diurnal) animals in more complex habitats, the time needed for microhabitat searching (and hence NAW time) increased along a gradient of increasing habitat complexity from the 1-yr fallows and teak plots to mature forest.

Frequent fire can simplify forest structure, though topographic mitigation of fire effects could potentially preserve structurally more complex habitat within certain topographic locations of fire prone landscapes.

Higher diversity on Axial Volcano may be supported by a greater time of sustained venting, a larger venting area, water circulation contained within the caldera, or flow conditions that sponsor growth of more complex habitat.

For example, a population of a habitat-forming species in which the individuals are phenotypically different will create a more complex habitat than one in which phenotypes are all alike, and most likely the more complex habitat will attract more associated species [ 5].

Thus, we suggest that rubber tree plantations near Atlantic forest fragments should encourage understory development and establish a landscape mosaic, allowing forest fragments immersed in plantation matrix to be able to exchange individuals and colonize more complex plantation habitat.

gambiae in larval behaviours that affect the risk of predation may help explain why An. coluzzii is better adapted to live in ecologically more complex and stable habitats, where predators are more abundant and diverse compared to the ephemeral predator-barren larval habitats of An. gambiae (Diabate et al. 2005; Gimonneau et al. 2010, 2012a, b).

Diversity can differ among habitat types and more complex combinations of multiple habitat types often leads to higher diversity in terms of species richness [57].

Burrows in the loess habitat were more complex than in the sand habitat.
