Excavations conducted between 2010 and 2012 at Magoro Hill, a site in South Africa's Limpopo Province frequented or intermittently occupied by African farming communities since the first millennium AD, yielded a substantial glass bead assemblage.
This is particularly critical given the overall paucity of taphonomic data from the region, the substantial cercopithecoid primate assemblage that is uniquely dominated by the basal baboon species Papio angusticeps, and the recent announcement of the first hominin specimen from Haasgat.
Furthermore, a substantial proportion of the assemblage represents transport over relatively long distances (>10 km).
Last, we identified substantial variation in bacterial assemblage composition between chicks and adults, highlighting the dynamic nature of bacterial communities within the gut.
However, a more in-depth analysis suggested that MTL fails to capture substantial changes in underlying species assemblage.
Statistical analysis revealed substantial differences in the macroinvertebrate assemblages after clearfelling with higher abundances of chironomids.
Because of substantial differences in their fish assemblages, separate IBI's were formulated for cool-cold transition (20.7 22.5 °C) and cool warm transition (22.6 24.6 °C) streams.
This study demonstrates the ability of plants from restored wetlands to affect nutrient and sediment dynamics, with three significantly differing plant assemblages all exhibiting substantial nutrient and sediment reduction capacity.
The seismic reflection pattern within this entire assemblage suggests significant reactivation of small-scale faults prior to the Early Miocene that may have caused substantial deformation within the strata (Fig. 7).
Within the Group 2 transporter clade, the duplicate ABC transporters of RTX and RTX-like T1SSs form separate clades (RtxB and RtxE), and assemblage within each clade indicates substantial LGT across divergent obligate intracellular bacteria and other Gammaproteobacteria, including species of Vibrio.
