The scores obtained for each phase gave a realistic assessment of the recovery stage attained in L'Aquila by 2016, because the recovery process in the city included a mixture of characteristics from each of the different post-disaster phases, demonstrating the fuzzy boundaries between the phases.
Here, using the Rhenish shield (western Europe), an area of moderate Quaternary uplift, as a test case, I attempt to build an index yielding a comprehensive view of the stage attained by the landscape's response and, indirectly, an evaluation of the timing of the triggering base level change.
In addition, all the recruited patients in the postmenopausal stage attained menopause naturally, and none of them had undergone hysterectomy.
We then examined the timing of male embryo death by tracking the developmental stage attained by 2 h cohorts of eggs, infected and uninfected, allowed to develop between 4 and 24 h.
While Mr. Tadic has had successes on the international stage, attaining E.U. candidacy status for Serbia in March, his government has been undermined by 24 percent unemployment, a weak dinar, accusations of endemic corruption, and weak economic growth.
In this phase II trial, the planned sample size was 45 patients, which was calculated by Southwest Oncology Group's two-stage attained design 9 based on an expected clinical complete remission rate of 60% and a threshold of 40%, with an interim one-sided alpha of 0.02 for futility, final alpha of 0.105, and a power of 0.9.
This sample size was calculated using Southwest Oncology Group's two-stage attained design 10 based on an expected %CR of 85% and threshold of 70% in patients with T1 2, and an expected %CR of 65% and threshold of 45% in patients with T3, with a one-sided alpha of 0.05 and a power of 0.9.
The disturbance gradually intensified throughout much of its early formative stages, attaining tropical storm strength on September 10; further strengthening into a hurricane north of Puerto Rico occurred two days later.
This undoubtedly diffusive process (which typically is described in disordered solids as SER) is only the initiating stage of the overall relaxation tending a system towards equilibrium, while the final ultraslow stage attains faster than the exponential CER form.
As shown in the lower right part of the diagram, the shape of the hypsometric curve varies in early geologic stages of development of the watershed, but once a steady state (mature stage) is attained, tends to vary little thereafter, despite lowering relief.
The pattern of successful change is typically conceptualised to be spiral, with relapses to earlier stages and re-cycling through the stages, typically occurring prior to final remission (if successful), or the long-term maintenance stage, is attained [ 15, 17- 19].
