Over time, sea temperatures have steadily risen, a function, scientists believe, of increasing global temperatures due to the greenhouse effect.
The circulating levels of pre-metastatic niche-inducing factors would be expected to rise as a function of tumor size because the larger the primary tumor, the more of these factors would be expected to be produced.
We predict that, due to a diminishing influence of nuclear NMNAT1, NMN in NMNAT2-deficient axons will rise as a function of distance from the soma, with some axon outgrowth possible up to the point at which a critical threshold is exceeded and SARM1-dependent degeneration is triggered.
After Sandy, Christie's approval rating rose a bit — a function of his response to the disaster and effective partnership with President Barack Obama, which improved how Democrats viewed him.
On this scale a severe impaired function (grade 0) means that the rat drags its hind limb without any function; a slightly impaired function (grade 1) means the rat does not use its hind limb in a usual matter, but stands on it when rising; an intact function of the hind limb (grade 2) means a normal walking pattern.
Diastolic blood pressure often rises as a function of stress and anxiety.
The power of the universally compatible Internet, with more than a hundred million users, rises as a function of the intelligence added to its periphery at a rate far faster than intelligence could be designed into the network itself.
Consequently, the mean fitness of the population is: (3) As pollen becomes more limiting when there are more females we assume that F q) rises as a function of the frequency of hermaphrodites, q, within the population.
The temperature rise as a function of lubricant, sliding velocity, coefficient of friction and maximum load was determined and analyzed.
The time-averaged local temperature rise as a function of angular position was similar for various qualitatively different patterns, indicating an underlying nonuniformity in the system.
A simple correlation for wall temperature rise as a function of the tube length that can be used for future design has been developed based on a parametric study.
