Last year, thousands of people died from heatwaves in Europe and Asia, and droughts and floods – including those exacerbated by normal climate variability, such as the current strong El Niño phenomenon – are increasing.
Our review includes incidental management effects, such as soil compaction, and natural sources of variability, such as topography.
Within paddock variability, such as differential grazing distribution, can be readily incorporated as weighting factors when suitable models are developed.
In the future, Ram said she plans to examine diseases with greater geographic and temporal variability such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and diabetes.
Estimating the level of this impact is particularly difficult where there is high flow variability, such as dryland rivers in Australia.
The effects of tillage and reconsolidation, wheel-track soil compaction, crop residue management, macropore development and management interactions with natural sources of variability, such as topography, are addressed.
Several terms that provide a framework for the description of compositional variability, such as transport invariance, fractionation potential and effective count length, are introduced, illustrated, and quantitatively defined.
The characteristics of the different lineages influence how that lineage is likely to respond to environmental variability such as lake-level fluctuations.
Then, there are diseases that could spring from less variability such as obsessive-compulsive disorders, which cause patients to have the same thought over and over and to repetitively engage in the same behavior, such as washing their hands.
Strong responses to "normal" climate variability such as that related to the El Niño/La Niña events of the southern Pacific make the picture very muddled.Uncertainty about deforestation and subsequent regrowth of plants clouds this murky image still further.
This index is, particularly, interesting on the detection of early failures (which appear as small deviations from the baseline spectrum), even when the measurements have high variability (such as the case of online measurements in rotating machines).
