Deep in the central African jungle, time itself has begun to leak away, and the consequence of this temporal depletion is a super-saturation of space.
As diversification proceeds, the extent of ecological opportunity declines as a function of increasing saturation of niche space by newly evolving species.
As natural selection promotes saturation of ecological space via phenotypic diversification, opportunities for niche occupation decline, thus causing a slowdown in the rates of diversification of ecologically functional traits [ 2, 8– 10].
The principle is that EB-like diversification is more likely to occur in lineages with a large proportion of sympatric species early in their history, given that saturation of ecological space is directly mediated by species interactions (e.g., competition) and coadaptation [ 2, 8].
The results indicate that the tangent modulus of the substrate controls the evolution curvature of crack spacing where a smaller tangent modulus corresponds to a slower saturation of crack spacing.
This randomization procedure presents a caveat regarding saturation of network sampling space.
Thus, the saturation of the taxonomic space by complete genome sequences increases the opportunities for the application of comparative genomics.
Indeed, the frequency of hybridisation events leading to speciation will decrease after the initial burst of adaptive radiation because of the saturation of the niche space [ 6].
It was found that the saturation in spacing of the cracked coating segments is either cause by a localization of the plastic strain in the substrate or by a delamination of the coating segments.
Just during the last years, and probably by an effect of space saturation and upward mobility, Pakistanis have also tended to establish their residences and businesses in other areas of the city (e.g. Besòs, Sants or Ciutat Meridiana).
Therefore, we suggest that the molecule partially dehydrogenates at low coverage, whereas dehydrogenation is suppressed at saturation as a result of space limitations.
