The inland holds several large and biologically diverse wetlands, along with rugged hill country ( bush or heath in the more exposed heights ), as well as old-growth and regenerating kauri forests.

As the marine ecosystem is very large and diverse, marine biology is further divided into many subfields, including specializations in particular species.

On the one hand, the Public Health Service declared as recently as October 26 that present radiation levels resulting from the Soviet shots `` do not warrant undue public concern '' or any action to limit the intake of radioactive substances by individuals or large population groups anywhere in the Aj.

The lack of scientific unanimity on the effects of radiation is due in part to insufficient data covering large population groups, from which agreed-on generalizations could be drawn.

Mr. Speaker, for several years now the commuter railroads serving our large metropolitan areas have found it increasingly difficult to render the kind of service our expanding population wants and is entitled to have.

Thus, an enemy would probably use this weapon for attack on static population centers such as large cities.

This is substantially higher than the figures for the American population at large -- 45.6 per cent for males and 29.2 per cent for females.

This is particularly true in large centers of Jewish population like New York, Chicago, and Philadelphia.

Because it is so large a state, with marked contrasts in population density, the organization of the New York co-operative offers a cross-section of how the plan works.

; Random effect: An effect associated with input variables chosen at random from a population having a large or infinite number of possible values.

During World War I, the Armenian Genocide, the Greek genocide ( especially in Pontus ), and the Assyrian Genocide almost entirely removed the ancient communities of Armenian and Assyrian populations in Anatolia, as well as a large part of its ethnic Greek population.

The novel is believed to be based on the cholera epidemic that killed a large percentage of Oran's population in 1849 following French colonization, but the novel is placed in the 1940s.

A large part of the convict body were the Irish, 25 % of the total convict population.

* In Isaac Asimov's Robot series, Earth's population lives in large hyperstructures simply called Cities.

As with many other game species, the best sources of historical and large scale population data are hunting bag records and questionnaires.

In addition, numbers vary widely between years due to the large population fluctuations.

Scientists discount the existence of Bigfoot and consider it to be a combination of folklore, misidentification, and hoax, rather than a living animal, because of the lack of physical evidence and the large numbers of creatures that would be necessary to maintain a breeding population

There are three reasons for this population loss: firstly, since the completion of Telli ( a large apartment complex ), the city has not had any more considerable land developments.

The RAND Corporation's Memorandum 5446-ISA / ARPA states: " the fact that the VC obtain most of their food from the neutral rural population dictates the destruction of civilian crops ... if they ( the VC ) are to be hampered by the crop destruction program, it will be necessary to destroy large portions of the rural economy – probably 50 % or more ".

Bahamian tastes in consumer products roughly parallel those in the U. S. With approximately 85 % of the population of primarily African descent, there is a large and growing market in the Bahamas for " ethnic " personal care products.

Scientists discount the existence of Bigfoot and consider it to be a combination of folklore, misidentification, and hoax, rather than a living animal, because of the lack of physical evidence and the large numbers of creatures that would be necessary to maintain a breeding population.

Indeed, scientific consensus is that the breeding population of such an animal would be so large that it would account for many more purported sightings than currently occur, making the existence of such an animal an almost certain impossibility.

In general, scientists reject such claims because of the improbably large numbers necessary to maintain a breeding population and because climate and food supply issues would make such purported creatures ' survival in reported habitats unlikely.

Due to the use of these biological weapons, and the apparent lack of medical advancement necessary to defend surrounding regions from them, widespread epidemics such as the bubonic plague quickly moved across all of Europe, destroying a large portion of its population.
