Environmental fluctuations can stabilize food web dynamics by increasing synchrony.
Natural food webs are species-rich, but classical theory suggests that they should be unstable and extinction-prone. Asynchronous fluctuations in the densities of competing consumers can stabilize food web dynamics in constant environments. However, environmental fluctuations often synchronize dynamics in nature. Using the same 'diamond-shape' food web model first used to demonstrate the stabil...
متن کاملIncreasing generic prescribing: a resident educational intervention.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Future physicians are urged to balance effectiveness and cost in their prescribing of medications. This study determined whether educational sessions for residents together with a "Resident Report Card" changed residents' prescribing of generic medications in both commercial and Medicaid patient panels, compared with regional performance of physicians in practice in th...
متن کاملTesting for Monotone Increasing Hazard Rate by Peter Hall
A test of the null hypothesis that a hazard rate is monotone nondecreasing, versus the alternative that it is not, is proposed. Both the test statistic and the means of calibrating it are new. Unlike previous approaches, neither is based on the assumption that the null distribution is exponential. Instead, empirical information is used to effectively identify and eliminate from further consider...
متن کاملIncreasing Functional Coverage by Inductive Testing: A Case Study
This paper addresses the challenge of generating test sets that achieve functional coverage, in the absence of a complete specification. The inductive testing technique works by probing the system behaviour with tests, and using the test results to construct an internal model of software behaviour, which is then used to generate further tests. The idea in itself is not new, but prior attempts t...
متن کاملObesity: Increasing Awareness of Novel Environmental Factors
Over the past 20 years, the molecular underpinnings of energy homeostasis have come to light (1–4) at a rate strikingly similar to that of the rising prevalence of obesity (5, 6). The fact that one is statistically more likely to be overweight or obese in the U.S. today has profound ramifications for basic scientific research, translational research, public policy, and our health care economy. ...
