Traditional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was unable to detect the small scale changes in pore structure visualized during light microscopy analysis after destructive sampling of the porous medium.
She listed several types of evidence that she claimed to have influenced her "stronger acceptance" of evolution including "fossils," and "observations of small scale changes in things that are around today" which, she explained, "could lead to really big changes over billions of years".
The small sample size of the study could have contributed to failure to detect such a difference and also other small scale changes in gene expression.
However, relatively small scale changes in agricultural practices may lead to a more functionally complex AMF community, potentially with the benefit of increasing productivity (Fig. 3).
This suggests that both large and small scale changes in the ribosome were still evolving after the domains diverged and then spreading among all of a domain's developing sub-branches [ 2].
One of Darwin's greatest innovations was to argue (following the approach advocated by his friend Charles Lyell) that one could use observed small-scale change in organisms to infer (and explain) large-scale change.
We have also demonstrated the ability of CycTools to make several small scale changes to a database in order to customize the content to represent a non-model organism.
By contrast, the guitarist and two saxophonists of Borbetomagus can almost always be counted upon to make a racket; their ruthless (and, it sometimes seems, never-ending) blasts force listeners to focus on small-scale changes in texture and tone.
Soil charcoal was used to reconstruct small-scale changes in the landscape.
We realise that groundwater utilisation will produce small-scale changes in the water budget around abstraction and injection wells.
Sousa (2010) designs an experiment to assess the effects of small-scale changes in wealth on risk attitudes, and finds that money given prior to risky choices does not influence preferences.
