Sentence examples for of reference conditions from inspiring English sources

This paper analyses three different types of reference conditions, namely: free linkage, rigid linkage and two-point linkage.

We demonstrated the importance of independently evaluating predictions of this type using generic ecological models and estimates of reference conditions derived from other sources.

Treatments had inconsistent effects on vertical complexity across sites likely due to differences in treatment of ladder fuels; lack of reference conditions hinder evaluation of this structural aspect.

These results are discussed in the context of reference conditions for restoration of ecosystem health and ecological integrity in eastside ponderosa pine forests.

We used a diagnostic set of class and landscape spatial pattern metrics to compare current spatial patterns of test subwatersheds against the two sets of reference conditions.

SWAT (soil water assessment tool) simulations permit the removal of the anthropogenic impacted land use, allowing the simulation of natural conditions and a prediction of reference conditions.

The empirical data used, comprised observations of invertebrate abundance and percentage fine sediment, collected across a wide range of reference condition temperate stream and river ecosystems (model training dataset n = 2252).

Thus, we conclude that LDI may be biased toward an overestimation of reference condition GIWs, even though the habitat may be functionally degraded by the absence of natural processes such as fire.

Additionally, the use of reference condition values can lead to the assumption of an equilibrium, or constant state, while aquatic ecosystems are generally in a state of flux (Reeves & Duncan,2009), driven by climatic, seasonal or external influences (e.g. stormwater runoff) and changing primary productivity.

IBI, habitat suitability indices, and chemical monitoring are specific examples of indicators that in combination can assess structure, physical chemical quality, and biological measures of reference condition.

Implicit knowledge of reference-conditions is not required either for linguistic competence or for determinate reference.
