The integration of geophysical data also narrows the variance of predicted tracer breakthrough times substantially.
This suggests that most of the variability in the number of monomers is due to biological variation in the stoichiometry of the SpoIIIE complex rather than counting errors, and that it would not be possible to narrow the variance by just lowering the counting uncertainty.
When noisy data are considered, the means of the bounds of rate constants that remain unidentifiable are also narrowed, but the variances of some of these bound estimates increase.
Some authors have argued that broader measures are better predictors because they have greater reliability than narrower measures, and the variance in outcomes associated with broad factors generalizes across situations [ 69, 70].
As expected, precision increased (i.e. the 90% prediction interval of the variance components narrowed) when more data was sampled (Table 3).
The peak width can be narrowed by adjusting the Gaussian variance.
Conversely, including all cases without accounting for the fact that the data were unknown, for example, with single imputation, overstates the available sample size, leading to an underestimation of the variance and hence too narrow confidence intervals and more significant P-values (Rubin, 1987).
PC2 (14% of the variance) separated the long-snouted, narrower skulls of the pangolin from the wider, taller skulls of diprotodontians in the 'maximum taxa dataset'.
At high detection probabilities in particular, the variance of the population estimate was small resulting in narrow confidence limits.
The variance due to A is then a, and the (narrow-sense) heritability is calculated as a/(a + d + e).
