Under current coastal policies, the population and the value of property at risk in that zone are expected to continue rising.
But once the population and the value of the homes built at Dakota Dunes (and countless other projects) achieve certain thresholds, there is little to do but to keep investing in flood control structures to protect them.
These are: (1) the hazard the probability of a hazard event; (2) the exposure the size of the population and the value of the assets subject to the hazard event; (3) vulnerability the susceptibility of populations to the hazard event; and (4) resilience the capacity of communities, or lack of it, to deal with the hazard event (Wisner et al. 2004; Koks et al. 2015).
There was a linear correlation between the peak fluorescence intensity of each population and the value of molecular equivalent soluble fluorochrome (MESF), which is proportional to the number of fluorescent dye molecules at the surface of each particle.
In this work we have used stationary populations of RNA molecules evolving in silico to investigate the relationship between the degree of adaptation of an optimized population and the value of the mutation rate promoting maximal adaptation in a short time to a new selective pressure.
They were familiarized with a broad range of issues, including the importance of hygiene and sanitation to ensure children's health, the impact of prenatal sex selection on Viet Nam's population and the value of exclusive breastfeeding.
Both the PMitCEBO and CHOP regimens result in considerable myelosuppression in the elderly population and the value of using granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) to mitigate against the chemotherapy induced neutropenia was also explored.
From the equations given in the Methods, the critical factors determining the sensitivity of OTOFTs are (i) the frequencies of SAO, alpha thalassaemia and G6PD deficiency in the population and (ii) the values of g1, g2, g4 and g5.
This sample is not representative of the population and hence the values of P(Condition+|Test+) and P(Condition+|Test−) will be skewed by unrepresentative P(Condition+) and P(Condition−).
We amplified 13 housekeeping genes (12 nuclear genes and mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I) to determine whether the pattern of population structure and the values of polymorphism statistics were specific to the fester locus.
