With a bell-shaped selectivity curve, fish that survive as they grow through the sizes vulnerable to the fishery may successfully reproduce, potentially repeatedly and at a large size.
The number of reported cases of cholera has actually risen in recent years, and its re-emergence as a global threat has been described by the WHO as "noted in parallel with the ever-increasing size of vulnerable populations living in unsanitary conditions".
To the credit of the USGS, they are recommending that the US support research to gather important data: the size of vulnerable methane deposits, and the rate at which methane is being emitted from them, for example.
Finally, diffusion tensor imaging suggests that some axonal tracts are reduced in size, suggesting vulnerable brain areas (McIntosh et al., 2008; Peters et al., 2010) that may underlie changes in action potential propagation caused by myelination pathways relevant to psychiatric diseases (Whitford et al., 2010).
On "American Horror Story," Murphy's other anthology series, Sarah Paulson has a diva-glam intensity, but her Marcia Clark is a more life-size figure, vulnerable beneath her matte lipstick and beauty mark.
This obstacle can lead to small sample sizes more vulnerable to inaccuracy, and less diverse samples that might not be generalizable to the world population.
A core population in Lake Mohave (Arizona-Nevada, USA) has experienced no natural recruitment for decades and is maintained by harvesting naturally produced larvae from the lake, rearing them in protective custody, and repatriating them at sizes less vulnerable to predation.
Despite widespread use of HES for more than three decades, RCTs comparing HES with other fluids for ICU non-septic patients are few, with small sample sizes, and vulnerable to bias.
Its small size makes it vulnerable to being pushed around.
In a market whose small size makes it vulnerable to exaggerated moves, that has some investors fearing a bubble.
