This assumption has been supported in various scenarios using a dispersal model [32],[32],[32].
We confirmed the differences in medians using a Mann–Whitney test, with Bonferonni corrections applied for repeated tests (Miller 1981), the advantage of the permutation approach is that we can also test for differences in the dispersal of the data.
We also quantify the effects of non-random diaspore abscission on dispersal distances using a well-tested model for seed dispersal by wind.
We used a binomial test to assess significant trends in fruit length, fruit diameter, fresh fruit mass, number of seeds per fruit, and seed mass associated with megafaunal dispersal.
The ALPEs developed here use the dispersal model FALL3D however other dispersal models could be used (e.g. ASHFALL (Hurst 1994; Hurst and Turner 1999), HAZMAP (Costa et al. 2009), or TEPHRA (Bonadonna and Houghton 2005)) and the authors would encourage the development of ALPEs using a range of dispersal models currently available to build on and compare/contrast with the current work.
Note that when we use a fixed dispersal distance parameter, it is not the dispersal distance itself that is fixed but the dispersal kernel shape (see earlier), we always denote fixed dispersal distance values with a '*'.
He was convicted of use of a weapon of mass destruction and attempting to build and use a radiological dispersal device.
Use a real pregnancy test.
The objective of this study is to assess the dispersal of nano hydrated lime (NHL) particles in the asphalt using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) test, and to evaluate the physical properties of NHL modified water-foamed asphalt (NMFA).
Because these personality traits predict dispersal, we tested the hypothesis that in the barn swallow, Hirundo rustica, melanic coloration predicts natal dispersal, using a solid matched case control sampling design and a large sample.
