The quantitative tools of mathematical morphology distinguished differences in patterns of aggregate structure associated to the different soil managements.
For instance, the identified patterns of aggregate change provide a clear "fingerprint" for climate change detection and attribution studies.
Further, the patterns of aggregate change indicate which regions are likely to face the greatest near-term climate change that is already committed through climate system inertia.
In addition, internal climate system variability could overwhelm the identified climate change patterns for time scales that are shorter than the multi-decadal scales explored here, meaning that individual decadal or sub-decadal periods could show different patterns of aggregate climate anomalies.
Additionally, we analyzed the regional distribution pattern of aggregates containing poly-GA, its interacting partner Unc119, poly-GR, poly-GP or poly-PR in brain and spinal cord of autopsy cases with C9orf72 mutation and correlated aggregate frequency with the neuropathological diagnosis.
This information is important because it is well known that observation of attraction between congeners (e.g. an olfactometric test showing that olfaction permits woodlice to find conspecifics) is not sufficient to draw conclusions about patterns of aggregation and the stability of aggregates [45], [46].
The effect of increased compaction energy level did not alter the pattern of aggregate degradation for the continuously graded asphalt mixture and only increased the degree of degradation by a small amount.
To assess possible dissonance in the data from differences in past economic experiences, we compare the observed pattern of aggregate gross domestic product (GDP) with the average magnitude of the negative credit and demand shocks perceived by firms in each economy.
Comparisons of different periods of the two forcing pathways suggest that the pattern of aggregate change is fairly robust to the level of global warming below approximately 2 °C of global warming (relative to the late-20th-century baseline), but not at the higher levels of global warming that occur in the late-21st-century period of the RCP8.5 pathway (Fig. 1).
The calculations were performed using a specially designed program, which simulates the XRD patterns of atomic aggregates based on the Debye formula.
