Diversity enables the collection of a range of feedback that can be used to produce a more ecologically-valid adaptation of the program.
Thus restoration of degraded ecosystems can be a valid management adaptation to climate change.
Fed-batch mode turned out to be a valid alternative adaptation strategy, overcoming inhibition problems related to crude glycerol composition but was also associated with H2S production, thus implying the use of continuous mode to better select and adapt anaerobic sludge to the conversion of animal fat derived crude glycerol.
The purpose of this report is to describe a process through which culturally appropriate and methodologically valid translations and adaptations of QoL measures may be achieved in a pediatric population with a relatively rare disorder, childhood immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP).
The primary objective of this study was to create a reliable and valid Dutch version of LEFS by translation and adaptation.
However, Equations 14 and 15 remain valid for nonstationary adaptation, where the neutrality threshold σ ˜ becomes time dependent (see below).
In particular, the paper deals with the development of an expert system valid to optimize the adaptation transients arising in adaptive control using a logic formalism previously described, providing good simulation results.
In addition to the original versions in English, Spanish, and French, the COHIP has been translated into Dutch [ 23], Korean [ 24] and Persian [ 25], and was shown to be reliable and valid in cross-cultural adaptation.
Parental stress was measured at age 14 by administering the short version of the Nijmeegse Ouderlijke Stress Index (NOSIK)[ 29], a valid and reliable Dutch adaptation of the American Parental Stress Index.
While enhancing landscape connectivity and gene flow probably represents a valid measure to enhance adaptation to climate change (through the shift of spatial ranges and distributions), its effects on the adaptation of resident species and populations are not necessary beneficial (Urban 2011).
