Hence I denote the transitional events in the evolution of life the Biological Big Bangs (BBBs) and refer to the rapid stages of evolution as the inflationary phase.
The initial rapid stage is explained as adsorption to surface sites with high reactivity, and the later slow stage is attributed to precipitation, diffusion into the mineral lattice, or adsorption to sites with lower reactivity [40].
Vegetation maps prepared from aerial photos and socioeconomic information were used to define three land cover change trajectories: the rapid cultivation stage (1947 1968), the abandonment stage (1968 1978) and the plantation/reforestation stage (1978 2004).
We hypothesize that proteins which lost their function, once the parasite has entered the mosquito vector, are only degraded after the gametes have developed and after fertilization has occurred, thus after the phase of rapid stage conversions has finished.
At this stage, i.e., the rapid compaction stage, porosity and permeability decrease rapidly (Fig. 4).
The poorer the sorting, the higher the compaction rate and the more distinct the difference between the rapid compaction stage and the slow compaction stage.
Studies of different compaction stages show that during the rapid compaction stage, the average porosity reduction of sample I and sample II is 0.339 % and 0.334 %, respectively, with 2.3 MPa increase of the overburden pressure (about 100 m of the burial depth, the same below), which is almost the same.
The experimental results of different compaction stages show that during the rapid compaction stage, the average porosity loss of sample II is 0.334 % per 2.3 MPa increase of overburden pressure and the average porosity loss of sample III is 0.886 %, which is 2.65 times greater than that of sample II.
Hard ticks imbibe large volumes of blood (approximately two thirds of their body volume) and expand enormously in the late stages of long-term blood feeding (named the rapid engorgement stage) [ 65, 66].
The influence of particle size on sandstone mechanical compaction is mainly reflected in the slow compaction stage, and the influence of sorting is mainly reflected in the rapid compaction stage.
