There, they discussed astrology, drugs and "Project Runway" while sampling steak and fish tacos, and various flavored margaritas, from sweet strawberry-vanilla to spicy jalapeño.
The floats are designed to track this fundamentally three-dimensional, non-isentropic flow while sampling water properties and all terms of the equation governing the vertical component of relative vorticity.
Further group-specific qPCR showed that microbial communities of the three takins were relatively similar to each other and stable during our study period, while sampling time had an appreciable effect on microbial communities of the takin.
In a univariate analysis, the explanatory variable that influenced the estimated HRs for PFS and OS was detection method (PFS: coefficient = 0.415, standard error = 0.104, p = 0.001; OS: coefficient = 0.341, standard error = 0.157, p = 0.046), while sampling time was also another potential source of heterogeneity (Additional file 3).
While sampling efforts were not uniform across locations and may have affected the biogeographic patterns observed, it is interesting to note that 40% of the spacers observed in more than one strain were restricted to specific locations and/or biomes, the latter describing major oceanic regions distinguished by oceanographic factors such as nutrient concentrations and primary productivity [ 54].
He said he had been disturbed by "the fact that Steve's younger voters were overwhelmingly pro-Bush," while most samplings, here and elsewhere, have found them strongly pro-Kerry.
It was demonstrated that the global design was inadequate, grossly over-sampling some segments while under-sampling others.
Although our sampling efforts were designed to maximize dust collection while minimizing sampling time, the conditions under which we sampled were typical of those that occur each day at feed yards.
While the sampling scheme was designed to avoid the sampling of clones, clonal identification was still required as to not bias the data set toward over-represented lineages (Arnaud-Haond et al. 2007).
The surveys' sampling designs and sizes were not homogeneous: while most sampling frames drew on stratified random selections of private households, some datasets were based on income tax or other administrative records of government agencies.
