Sentence examples for scale of dispersal from inspiring English sources

For example, the ability of the wild host to disperse was fixed but the spatial scale of dispersal of both the host and the pathogen directly influence disease dynamics and plant pathogen co-evolution in the wild metapopulation.

In contrast, outside the scale of dispersal, cleared areas behaved as complete barriers, and surveys corroborated the species went extinct after a few decades in all small (less than 45 ha), isolated habitat fragments.

Regionally restricted gene flow in the Caribbean Acropora argues for regionally-based management [20], [21], but evidence for additional fine-scale differentiation in A. cervicornis suggests that the scale of dispersal and thus management at some locations may need to be much smaller (i.e. on the order of individual reefs) in this species [21].

The exact temporal scale of dispersal remains uncertain due to the absence of an evolutionary timeframe of cyanobacteria, as well as limits of the design of the study and the temporal resolution that is inherent to the mutation rate of the studied ITS fragment.

We used isolation-by-distance (IBD) theory to estimate the scale of dispersal in black rockfish.

The IBD slope can be used in combination with information about the effective density to estimate the scale of dispersal (Rousset 1997).

While the lack of divergence among Mississippi bay systems supports genetic management as a single unit, further work is needed to determine the spatial scale of natural dispersal and assess the degree of local adaptation of regional populations.

Finally, increases in the scale of pathogen dispersal made the results more sensitive to changes in the proportion of the wild host in the landscape (Table 4).

In addition, increases in the scale of pathogen dispersal made the results more sensitive to changes in the proportion of the wild host in the landscape which is consistent with the literature (Papaïx et al. 2013).

Ultimately, the importance of each reserve's contribution to network persistence will depend on rockfish density, age structure, and fine-scale patterns of dispersal caused by oceanographic currents and features such as retention zones (e.g. White et al. 2010).

This development marks a bifurcation in the approaches to wind dispersal, seeking either finer resolution of the dispersal mechanism at the scale of a single dispersal event, or mechanistically derived analytical dispersal kernels needed to resolve long-term and large-scale processes such as meta-population dynamics and range expansion.
