The mean of protein drifts, plotted as a solid line in the inserts of Figure 2, measured the strength of variation that affected all proteins similarly (i.e., the strength of systematic variation).
The 95% confidence interval (CI) of protein drifts, plotted as a shaded band in the inserts of Figure 2, measured the strength of variation that affected different proteins differently (i.e., the strength of protein-specific variation).
Two parameters, namely evolvability of residual variance (Ev) and heritability of residual variance (h²v) were calculated in order to measure the strength of genetic variation on residual variance and also to compare our results with those of previous studies.
The strength of seasonal variation in bat activity depended on the values (low, medium, high) of landscape characteristics.
The analysis predicts that tortuosity will vary with the Thiele modulus, the strength of this variation depending on the pore size distribution.
Fig. 4 Effect plot shows how the strength of seasonal variation in the activity of Pipistrellus nathusii varies depending on the vegetation complexity (low, medium, high) within 1 km of the surrounding landscape.
However, the strength of such variation and its relative importance were highly species-specific, with the fruit type being a determinant plant trait.
The perturbed background illumination can then be written as (8) where the exponent, n, controls the strength of the variation.
The strength of trait variation in response to resource availability differed among functional groups and growth statures in many aboveground traits, while being more consistent in belowground traits.
Calculation of H is the key step to estimate K e. Biologically, H measures the strength of rate variation among sites: H = 0 when var = 0, and H = 1 when var = ∞.
The strength of trait variation in response to varying resource availability differed among functional groups (grasses > forbs) and species of varying growth stature (small-statured > tall-statured species) in many aboveground traits, but only to a lower extent in belowground traits.
