Standard LD50 values in terms of µg/bee were converted to ppb relative to body weight (ng pesticide per g bee) by multiplying using a factor of 10,000; equivalent to1000 ng per µg ÷ average bee weight of 0.1 g.
In other words, the raw reading from a meter measuring, say, the number of cubic feet of water used may have to be multiplied by a factor of 10 or 100 or even 1,000 to calculate the actual amount of use.
That figure is expected to multiply by a factor of 10.
"There are 235,000 new homes built in Canada every year," Dr. Bartlett said, "and for the United States we usually multiply by a factor of 10.
To estimate the total amount of carbon stocked in India's forests, dry weight of biomass was converted into carbon by multiplying with a factor of 0.45 as used by Woomer [46].
(Orshanksy reasoned that because one-third of a family budget is devoted to food, one could use an emergency food budget multiplied by a factor of three to calculate a roughly adequate estimate of poverty).
We therefore used age of sexual maturity multiplied by a factor of two as a proxy for generation time.
To estimate the total amount of carbon stocked in India's forests, dry weight of biomass was converted into carbon by multiplying with a factor of 0.45 as used by Woomer [ 46].
The volume of interest was standardized using the outer diameter of the periosteal callus, and in the axial direction using twice the outer diameter of the cortical bone multiplied by a factor of 0.89.
For 30% Intralipid used in this study, μs′Intralipid is the μs′ of 10% Intralipid multiplied by a factor of three [ 57]. μ a variation.
Therefore, the data matrix was multiplied by a factor of 0.333 in order to reflect the mean intensity value of the data used to generate our GEPR (500).
