Sentence examples for significant canopy from inspiring English sources

Furthermore, based on our study and other experimental forest studies involving frogs, future forest practices that remove significant canopy should probably be viewed as having an initially (up to 1 year) negative effect on the frog community.

At two of the sites (Hinchinbrook Channel and Port Douglas) we observed significant canopy loss during July 2007 which was associated with a prolonged drought in the region (Australian Bureau of Meteorology 2007).

Results indicate that while fertilization had a significant impact on canopy pigment concentrations, it did not impact canopy nitrogen.

In both Codium and Laminaria habitats, significant effects of canopy removal on the overall macrofaunal assemblage were evident only during periods in which canopy cover in the Canopy Intact treatment was ≥ 50%.

Repeated scanning of a 50 m × 50 m forested area at six different times across a 16 month period revealed ecologically significant dynamics in canopy color at different heights and a structural shift upward in canopy density, as demonstrated by changes in vertical height profiles of point density and relative RGB brightness.

There were no significant associations between canopy position and habitat (χ = 15.613, df = 15, P = 0.482), nor between canopy position and the presence/absence of epicormic branches (χ = 3.515, df = 3, P = 0.3188).

Forest degradation (as well as enhancements of carbon stocks) is typically manifested through a change in forest structure, often subtle, and carbon losses (and gains) are smaller and more difficult to detect and quantify than deforestation using remote sensing where often significant reductions in canopy cover are observed.

There was no significant difference in canopy openness across seasons.

Within the thrice-burned plot, seven out of 20 randomization tests revealed a significant influence of canopy openness on arthropods (Figure 2), but none of the other forest structure variables were significant.
