Samples from bedrock outcrops and bedrock blocks yield more variable rates (3 20 m Ma− 1), which partly overestimate the long-term lowering rate, presumably due to block tilting and bedrock inhomogeneity.
A hypothesis that we wished to test is whether P450s that metabolize exogenous substrates are more likely to duplicate and evolve faster at more variable rates than those that metabolize endogenous substrates.
Our study corroborates the idea that mammalian genomes are characterized by higher and more variable rates of genome rearrangement in comparison to other vertebrate groups [e.g. [ 31, 33, 34]].
In the degraded section, higher and more variable rates of SIR in the sediment were measured (mean 1678.5 mg CO2 m−2 h−1) compared to the restored system (mean 471.6 mg CO2 m−2 h−1) (Fig. 4D).
At this point in the income distribution casual employment with more variable rates of wage within any period of time will be more common and therefore a single sample in time may provide a poor estimate of average wage, the more important factor in the determination of health.
MBNA's interest rate sensitivity declined significantly in 2004, when the company repriced a portion of its loan portfolio from fixed to variable rates and began marketing more variable-rate offers.
When two or more variable-rate models fit the data significantly, we chose the model with the lowest P-value for LRT as the best-fit evolutionary model of the gene.
The aim of the current study was to evaluate the PK features of CX after administration of the recommended dose and after administration of a more variable dose rate in the form of the commercially available tablet.
"While borrowers will lose if the fixed consolidation rate is eliminated, large student loan companies and banks stand to gain by charging more profitable variable rates and protecting their loan portfolios by discouraging consolidation," said Kate Rube, a research associate for the group.
Bad debt charges fell and more mortgage customers left fixed rates and moved to the far more profitable standard variable rate.
