After analyzing daily correlations between ozone concentrations at neighboring monitors, we selected the study areas to be circles with radii of 60 km centered on each monitoring station.
Our base case analysis used Voronoi neighbor averaging (VNA), an algorithm that estimates ambient ozone levels by selecting the closest neighboring monitors surrounding the center of each county and then calculating the inverse distance weighted average of the monitor values for the selected neighboring monitors (e.g., Chen et al. 2004; Gold 1997).
Most previous studies have been based on measurements from permanent air quality monitoring stations (AQMSs), using data from the AQMS closest to the subject's home address or interpolating data for neighboring monitors, for which measurements are averaged over the entire pregnancy or over each trimester of pregnancy.
Political analysts here say, however, that with Washington's attention focused on the campaign against remnants of Al Qaeda in neighboring Afghanistan, the monitoring of General Musharraf's commitments on Kashmir faded, and the camps gradually came back to life.
During the study period, because the number of births in some of the sampled surveillance hospitals had declined, we increased the number of hospitals that were selected from neighboring counties to monitor a sufficient amount of births to ensure a representative sampled population.
He tells me that police in neighboring towns had been monitoring them for some time, but it was the proliferation of Instagram activity that alerted them to how much anger was building within the motorcycle community against the police almost as much as the thieves themselves.
Since the two studies were conducted in animals in which microglia were present to surround neurons, it is therefore possible that testosterone has an anti-inflammatory role to mediate its action on PSD-95 through monitoring the neighboring microglia [ 46].
Many cordless phones, wireless home audio speakers, baby monitors (and neighboring wireless networks) operate on this popular frequency, and all have been known to cause problems in the past.
Monitoring of four neighboring producer wells over a period of 26 months confirmed nanoparticles' breakthrough at a single producer nearly 500 m from the injector at the reservoir level, thus, proving the nanoparticles' mobility and transport capability.
Similarly, residents in neighboring countries have been closely monitoring the Iraqi elections through the many satellite television networks operating in the region.
A BBC correspondent, Paul Danahar, said that neighboring villagers who approached the monitors blamed the shabiha for the killings, and that they said the militiamen trucked the bodies away.
