Sentence examples for point diversity from inspiring English sources

Deep-sea nematode assemblages are also highly diverse and species rich at local (point diversity and alpha diversity sensu Gray [ 2]) scales [ 3] but estimates of regional and global species richness remain speculative [ 4, 5].

This study explored the relationship between landscape-level factors (land use type) and the diversity of soil mites (Acari: Oribatida, Mesostigmata) at a within-site scale, using diversity measures including point diversity (local species diversity within a single sampling point), patterns of species turnover among the sampling points, and alpha diversity (total species richness in a habitat).

Generalizing the previous point, diversity is an emergent outcome of a highly complex system, which means that it is extremely difficult to understand how any initiative will impact diversity or how long it will take to see change.

For values of μ beyond this point, diversity increases with μ, reaching a plateau as the mean population size approaches its asymptotic limit.

Then, at some point, diversity may continue to increase if heterogeneity increases, level off if oxygen concentration increases, or decline if the other three parameters continue to increase.

Species richness is defined in this paper as point diversity or species density, where richness describes a subset of the community [26].

Therefore, we will consider 10 generations of inbreeding as past the point of peak diversity.

As soon as the breeding scheme is altered at the point of peak diversity, the effect is apparent.

The first of these is MAI, which modifies the breeding scheme only after the point of peak diversity is reached.

For all MAI techniques, random sib-matings were simulated until the point of peak diversity was passed.

For the MAI sib-pairs breeding scheme, random sib-matings were simulated until the point of peak diversity was reached.
