correlations among all electrons.

influence the altruistic behavior — such as higher cognition (measured
by brain size), hunting in groups, or stronger social bonds between group members — showed either much weaker
correlations or no
correlation at all with helping behaviors.
A major goal of microbiome research is to move microbiome research from
correlation to causation and to discover the mechanisms
by which microbes
influence health and disease.
By comparing volcanic activity to records of social unrest, the researchers found a correlation between the two that was too closely matched to dismiss: «In years influenced by volcanic eruptions, Nile flooding was generally diminished, leading to social stress that could trigger unrest and have other political and economic consequences,» Manning sai

... [T] he significant
correlations as well as similar atmospheric circulation patterns might provide empirical support for a solar
influence on hydroclimate extremes in central Europe during spring and summer
by the so - called solar top - down mechanism.
We find no
correlation; we even find that both processes can be
influenced by a genetic intervention in insulin / IGF1 signaling and yet remain uncorrelated, suggesting some form of compartmentation within the organism.
Finally, we investigate tentative
correlations between host - star masses and planet candidate radii, orbital periods, and multiplicity, but caution that these results may be
influenced by the small sample size and detection biases.
Indeed in our larger study, we show that simple
correlations are obscured
by a variety of other factors that also
influence student outcomes.
The value of a manager's skill is
influenced by the dynamics of the market within which he works — specifically,
by the universe's dispersion and
correlation.
By including artists who were Nevelson's
influences and contemporaries throughout her decades long career, this exhibition lifts up the visual, historical, and community
correlations among them.
Even if the clouds hypothetically were completely determined
by GCR, one would expect to see deterioration of the
correlation if viewed from above due to the presence of higher clouds not
influenced by GCR.
Large changes in cosmic rays are documented in response to magnetic - field variations (the Laschamp event of about 40,000 years ago is especially prominent) with no corresponding change in climate, so any cosmic - ray
influence on the climate must be very small (a weak
correlation can be obscured
by noise; a strong control is almost always visible «
by eye,» and clearly is absent).
The overflows further north are (i) unlikely to have an
influence on the temperatures in the «cold blob», and (ii) are largely independent of the AMOC in the open Atlantic — at least that is suggested
by a model simulation of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Hamburg, for which we show a
correlation analysis in Fig. 2b in our paper.
Soon knew that the relevant data series for discussing the AO
influence on Western Hudson Bay temperature (and
by proxy, sea ice) was from Churchill and despite being reminded of the fact
by the first set of reviewers, nonetheless continued to only show the AO connection to a site 1000 miles away, which had a much higher
correlation without any discussion of whether this other data was at all relevant to Churchill or the bears nearby.
Furthermore, it was shown that removal of a positive serial
correlation component from time series
by pre-whitening resulted in a reduction in the magnitude of the existing trend; and the removal of a trend component from a time series as a first step prior to pre-whitening eliminates the
influence of the trend on the serial
correlation and does not seriously affect the estimate of the true AR (1).
Other studies show good
correlation with ocean currents, which may or may not be
influenced by solar variations.
Their sum must be conserved in this exchange, therefore a very high
correlation is unavoidable over periods too short for the LOD to be
influenced as strongly
by other mechanisms.
A few other problems: - While there is an extremely good
correlation between accumulated emissions and accumulation in the atmosphere, the
correlation is less when one looks at the year
by year increase, simply because temperature changes have a short term
influence (about 4 ppmv/degr.C) on the increase rate, not on the trend!
For example Gerald Bond's Persistent Solar
Influence on North Atlantic Climate during the Holocene which is one of a series of papers written
by Bond that tracked the
correlation of levels of the cosmogenic isotopes C14 and Be10 with centennial to millennial climate change.
For streamflow prediction, the ESP approach has very limited or no
correlation skill beyond the months
influenced by initial hydrologic conditions, while the CM - HPS has moderately better
correlation skill, attributable to the enhanced temperature prediction skill that results from CanSIPS's ability to predict El Niño — Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and its teleconnections.
Regarding solar
influence on climate changes, there is still a lot of uncertainty and some
correlations have been discarded too early
by the consensus science.
5 4.4.6 Global temperatures and climate patterns are
influenced by concentrations of greenhouse gases 4.4.7 There is a
correlation between rising CO2 levels and average global temperature.
The possibility that overlying clouds may obscure low cloud, and thereby
influence correlations between solar activity and cloud cover was also explored
by Voiculescu et al. (2006, 2009).
The same jumping to (wrong) conclusions was made
by others, comparing temperature trends with the variability of the year
by year increase of CO2: these have a quite good
correlation, as there is a short term response of CO2 increase speed to temperature changes, but a only a small
influence of temperature on the CO2 trend itself.
They find large differences between the observed and model
correlation structure that can be explained
by accounting for the combined
influences of anthropogenic and solar forcing and internal variability in the observations.
If sample size is not masking a significant
correlation, the greater readability advantage in federal courts may be explained
by the factors that depress the summary judgment success rate in state courts: more restrictive state summary judgment standards, the lack of state court resources compared with those in federal court, and state court judges» relative reluctance to grant summary judgment.111 Although greater readability could still
influence the outcomes in some state cases, which would be consistent with the slight readability advantage in our sample, on the whole the anti-summary-judgment factors would reduce the potential readability effect on summary judgment outcome.
Because both background environmental stressors as part of the daily routine in the animal facility and social stressors afforded
by the rats» social environment may have provided necessary HPA activation for maternal behavior to exert a modulatory
influence, such a
correlation is at best consistent with a possible role of maternal care, but it can not be taken as conclusive evidence for sufficiency.
Most of the behaviors thought of as socialized (or unsocialized) are
influenced by genetic factors as well as
by learning, so correlational studies that provide no control for genetic factors can produce results —
correlations between a child's behavior in different contexts — that look like generalization.

correlation to mall promotions with sales, since buyers may be
influenced by advertising and other factors.
