The rarity of data demonstrating larval seeding is due to the challenges associated with documenting dispersal events in marine populations.
16 Given their rarity, most data sets are either case-reports or small patient series.
Existing allometric equations for lianas suffer from low predictability due to rarity of data for very large individuals (Schnitzer et al., 2006).
The sensitivity of our results, due to the rarity of our data, to likelihood assumptions was evident when we modelled the data, the 14 countries with the 0.5 continuity correction, under a normal likelihood.
The winners -- colorful images of breaking waves, splashing projectiles or snapping shrimp -- often to the accompaniment of spacey music, are that rarity of science, data that directly and viscerally communicate results at the forefront of science to scientists and nonprofessionals alike.
It is therefore difficult to fully optimize the IHB parameters due to the rarity of reference data.
Conclusion: lack of efficacy data, rarity of invasive disease plus evidence of infrequent administration delivered predominantly to those who are least likely to benefit, has prompted us to question the value of routinely vaccinating all our HIV-infected patients with pneumococcal vaccine.

Due to the rarity of active data, we assumed all 390 active compounds positive in the training set.
