Due to the pervasive trend of decreasing ring width with increasing tree diameter, patterns of tree growth related to forest decline are better captured using BAIs.
The bathroom scale is a pervasive computing device that decreases admissions, but if congestive heart failure is my biggest profit center, that could have a huge negative impact".
Such a pervasive local pattern of rate decreases, combined with pervasively slow mitochondrial evolution across land plants in general, suggests that high mutation rates are selected against in the evolution of plant mitochondrial genomes.
