Supplementary Material for: The Robustness of Generalized Estimating Equations for Association Tests in Extended Family Data by Suktitipat B. (4134472)

“…Alternative approaches that do not require the computation of familial correlations are preferable, provided that they do not inflate type I error or decrease power. We performed a simulation study to evaluate practical alternatives to VCA that use regression with generalized estimating equations (GEE) in extended family data. …”

The Effect of Positive Interactions on Temporal Turnover of Community Composition along an Environmental Gradient by Youshi Wang (483649)

“…Additionally, due to the difficulties in collecting the long-term data, it would be useful to indicate the rate of temporal turnover using a readily obtainable metric. Using an individual-based model incorporating plant strategies, we examined the role of facilitation on the temporal turnover of communities located at different positions along an environmental gradient for three model scenarios: CM without facilitation; CFM-U, a unimodal relationship between facilitation and environmental severity; and CFM-L, a positively linear relationship between facilitation and environmental severity. …”

Table_1_Population Dynamics at the Range Margin: Implications of Climate Change on Sublittoral Blue Mussels (Mytilus trossulus).XLSX by Mats Westerbom (4420888)

“…We show empirically that the dynamics of edge populations are not driven by large changes in climate variables but that small spatial and temporal changes in key environmental variables have large and non-linear population level effects. Our results also show that fluctuating recruitment is a key factor for population stability affecting the storage potential of marginal populations, which dramatically decrease toward the edge. …”

mRNA expression analysis of synaptic marker proteins in the brain of ARTE10 mice. by Antje Willuweit (180679)

“…For normalization, each ratio of Synaptophysin, Disk large homolog 4, and Drebrin values with Cyclophilin B (Ppib) have been calculated and are shown as linear regression lines.

Dotted and solid lines represent, respectively, countries with and without substantial slum populations. by Julius Alexander McGee (4672354)

“…While, at higher levels of urbanization, the rate of increase in CIWB for countries without substantial slum populations begins to slow down, there is no turning point at which the CIWB begins to decrease. Moreover, as we also see from the estimates in Model 4, having a substantial slum population actually moderates the association between urbanization and CIWB, although the relationship is more approximately linear.…”
