The thresholds for transition from the PR to the p-RD state was represented by p−RD H i, j, and that for transition from the PR to the p-ID state by p−ID H i, j.
For the averages and standard deviations of thresholds for transition from the PR to the p-RD state, p−RD H i, j, we used the values estimated by data fitting shown in Table 2.
Further progress on this methodology was made when Becker and Palsson [ 27] introduced the Gene Inactivity Moderated by Metabolism and Expression (GIMME) algorithm which uses a set of pre-determined thresholds for transition of each gene from "on" to "off".
Information volatility and number of whole product life cycle phases can hereby be considered as defining multi-dimensional probability fields admitting various uncertainty quantification metric families with identifiable thresholds for transitioning between them.
The relationship between stream power and channel morphology in these reaches was integrated with sediment load data to define the maximum flow efficiency (MFE) as the threshold for geomorphic transition.
The threshold for the transition from a discontinuous (DGC) to a cyclic gas exchange (cycGE) was significantly higher in animals with unblocked spiracles (18.7 nmol g−1 min−1 vs. 7.9 nmol g−1 min−1).
This mechanical response was shown to scale well with the confining parameter Dnorm, defined as the ratio of the initial fiber diameter (D0) to the root-mean-square end-to-end distance (Ree), with Dnorm ∼ 18 identified as the threshold for the transition from necking to crazing of PS nanofibers.
In turn, the threshold for the transition from fatty acid to glucose can be shown to be proportional to F1 (from equations 7 and 11), F0 = [ YFA YM−2))/((YFA+2 YM ]F1, where the coefficient of proportionality is determined by yield coefficients alone.
The threshold for the transition between native and non-native S-layer parameters was four methylene groups.
Taken together the data are consistent with a model in which p53 has a threshold effect on survival under stress, and the threshold for the transition from favorable to detrimental depends upon the type of stress and the sex of the animal.
