CORRELATED EFFECT [3 records]

Record 1 2013-09-16

English

Subject field(s)
  • Ecology (General)
  • Genetics
CONT

The substantial genetic correlation of size and timing of return that we observe... could have consequences for harvest management. Alexandersdottir(1987) reviewed evidence that selection with respect to timing has had detrimental effects on pink salmon productivity in some fisheries. Our data suggest that selection against later returning fish could have the correlated effect of reducing the individual size of fish in the population.

CONT

A central objective of population ecology is to understand how populations are spatially structured. An informative way of looking at this is to describe how species abundance varies temporally and spatially and then to identify the mechanisms that can cause synchrony.... Two principal mechanisms have been identified as the possible cause of spatial synchrony. First, dispersal between spatially structured populations... and second, the correlated effect of density independent factors that synchronise populations with the same density dependent structure...

OBS

Genetically usable variation.

Record 2 2000-06-20

English

Subject field(s)
  • Statistical Methods
  • Statistics
DEF

An extension of the analysis of variance. In the latter the analysis is concerned with sources of variability affecting a set of observations of a single variable y. It may be that there exist variables x(say one for simplicity) which are correlated with y but unaffected by sources of variability; and we wish to abstract the effect of x from y before analyzing the latter.

DEF

Extension de l'analyse de la variance, au cas où l'on veut tenir compte de facteurs de variation qui n'ont pu être compris dans le plan d'expérience; elle utilise conjointement l'analyse de la variance et la théorie de la régression; les facteurs dont elle permet de tenir compte sont, soit connus, mais trop dispersés pour être pris individuellement en considération, soit inconnus, mais pouvant être mesurés a posteriori.
