This follows years of tuition fee increases far steeper than the average at American public universities (see chart).
The pace of progress in Malawi and six other countries with some of the highest proportions of children dying — Nepal, Bangladesh, Eritrea, Laos, Mongolia and Bolivia — has been much steeper than the global average, the new data show.
The distance decay functions for the study area are steeper than the national average, with a and b parameters −11.156 and 2.838, respectively.
The terrain at the Tairua site ranged from flat to very steep and was considerably steeper on average than the relatively flat terrain at the Kaingaroa site (mean slope of 13.5 vs. 2.35°).
In areas where the LAB is shallower than average, a steeper thermal gradient evolves, and vice versa.
Figure 2A shows that homozygous and heterozygous samples amplified with LATE-PCR display the expected linear kinetics and that the slopes of homozygous amplification plots are, on average, steeper than the slopes of heterozygous amplification plots.
The expense ratio is steep at 2%, and with lower-than-average returns, it shows that sin doesn't pay for investors, at least.
But most of the dangerous incidents have occurred as a result of skiers ignoring warnings about off-piste activity, Statistics suggest that the rate of serious injuries on the exceptionally steep black runs is lower than average.
"This was a better-than-average day".
Table 1 shows that the group average of slope 1 is steeper than that of slope 2. Indeed, we observed that the within-subject average of slope 1 was steeper than slope 2 for all individuals.
