End User acknowledges that the Consumer AVM reports provide estimates of the value of real property and other information related to value based upon the application of valuation models to available data and do not constitute appraisals or broker price opinions of subject properties and may not be relied upon as such.
This is an important finding because current estimates of biological activity in surface waters of the ocean rely on instruments aboard satellites that measure the color of the sea surface, which changes along with levels of chlorophyll - a, an assessment that will miss blooms of other organisms, such as bacteria.
Such bottom - up estimates rely on emissions amounts that are associated with given practices or activities.
Weiskopf explained that a big problem with collecting and identifying scat in the field is that researchers mostly rely on morphological characteristics such as shape, size or associated signs of snow leopards, and since scat from different species can look similar, this can lead to misrepresented population estimates and errors in reporting what the snow leopards are actually eating.
«However, it is equally clear that sudden, unexplained death is a rare event, this is only the first such study, it relies on small numbers, and it is not possible to quantify the risk beyond estimating that it is very small.»
However, a school that relies more heavily on connected devices, such as a school that utilises tablets for class research, may have to estimate a much higher number of users.
Such risk factors, however, complicate the interpretation of large - scale standardized test scores and their related value - added estimates, as VAMs rely solely on large - scale standardized test scores to yield their growth estimates.

For example, while estimates concerning central tendencies of distributions of simulation outcomes are usually fairly robust because they are conditioned on ample data, estimates concerning the tails of distributions (such as the probability of falling below a critical biomass) are usually conditional on few data and thus often rely on assumptions that have no strong knowledge base.
Inverse estimates of aerosol forcing do not have to rely much on GCMs, are for AF, and are in line with the SOD's satellite - observation derived central AF estimate of -0.73 W / m ^ 2 (discounting estimates from studies in the SOD's list that are, for reasons such as those I mentioned in my 2/2/13 5:59 am comment, obviously useless).
Cowtan and Way developed a methodology which relied on other limited sources of temperature information from the Arctic (such as floating buoys and satellite observations) to try to make an estimate of how the surface temperature was behaving in regions lacking more traditional temperature observations (the authors released an informative video explaining their research which may better help you understand what they did).
In India, it is estimated that more than 230 million people do not have access to electricity, so rely on dangerous, fossil - fuel based energy sources such as kerosene lamps.
