The ability of our approach to successfully characterize, through a blind analysis, communities of contigs generated directly from the reads is now emphasized in the Discussion.
In this work, a methodology to characterize variability through measurement and analysis has been developed.
Many design researchers have attempted to characterize design through the different activities the designer exhibits, such as problem framing, solution generation, and evaluating alternative solutions.
This paper presents another advancement; detailed measurement of the magnitude and direction of the thermal gradient to characterize flow through fractured rock.
The authors propose a general model to characterize groups through several metrics of reciprocity, activity and topical diversity (which embody the theory of common identity and common bond).
"Now we have a guidebook for determining what levels of carbon monoxide are compatible with a photosynthetic biosphere". Due to launch in March 2021 after several delays, "Webb" will boost the discovery of exoplanets around distant stars, but also have the ability to characterize exoplanets through both direct imaging and spectroscopy.
Several studies on behavioral and cognitive neurology have been conducted to characterize dementias through biological and functional markers, for instance, the EEG activity, aimed at understanding the evolution of AD, following its progression, as well as leading toward better diagnostic criteria for early detection of cognitive impairment [8, 9].
It provides a means to characterize patients through exploiting existing clinical data, rather than re-capitulating such data via research activities.
For identifying phytoestrogens in the Fallopia genus, mass spectrometry (MS), rather than diode array detection (DAD) or ultra-violet (UV) absorption, has become the method of choice due to its high specificity and ability to characterize unknowns through fragmentation, with electrospray ionization (ESI) being the predominant ionization source.
Responding to recent increases in nominations of complex occupational exposures for toxicologic assessment by the U.S. National Toxicology Program, the NIEHS and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health have begun a program to characterize exposures through field studies, identify biomarkers of exposure in workers, and recreate relevant mixed exposures in a laboratory setting.
