The decline in the levels of over dispersion was, however, confirmed.
Aggregation is therefore treated as significant in studies on the epidemiology of infectious diseases and, together with dispersion, deserves closer scrutiny.
Two characteristic aspects of parasite distributions, namely dispersion and aggregation, are investigated.
All of these properties can be estimated using standard color filters or very low-resolution spectral dispersion.

Following the injection of such pulses into strongly scattering media, such as tissue, the time dispersion of the photons can be studied.
The size of the emitting region for each spectral line in the direction of the spectral dispersion can then be determined by the instrumental linewidth.
Such an exercise could help move beyond the rather redundant dispersion of case studies that currently threatens the development of the field.

Even though the relationship is much weaker than the correlation between price levels, dispersion is highly correlated, particularly between the highly capitalized markets.

In this method it is not necessary to consider polarization vectors and eigenvalues of dispersion matrices around coupling points.
A nonlinear dispersion relation, which describes the nonlinear electrostatic and thermal convective cells, is obtained.
The dispersion relation of the surface dust-acoustic wave is obtained by the plasma dielectric function with the specular reflection boundary condition.
The specular reflection condition is known to be quite useful for investigating the dispersion relation of surface waves in semi-bounded plasmas.
However, the surface dispersion properties of the dust-acoustic wave in a dusty plasma containing elongated and rotating dust grains have not been investigated as yet.
We emphasize here that 1 and 2 belong to two different dispersion equations which do not result from a dispersion matrix.
The vanishing determinant of this system is the dispersion equation.
To avoid repetition, the numerical study of the linear dispersion relation in this investigation has not been presented because it can be found in [10].
A similar dispersion relation was obtained in the slab geometry [11, 12].
In the absence of a plasma, it has a dispersion relation a (k) that defines the modes that can propagate along it.

In absence of human infection, a likely explanation is the restricted movement and dispersion of both rodents and snails.
Analytical dispersion laws for the real part of the wave frequency are derived by applying the long-wavelength approximation and the short-wavelength approximation.
By recording such interferograms at different wave frequencies, it is possible to reconstruct the dispersion relation of the wave in the plasma.
418 sion dominates the dispersion of background medium by several orders of magnitude.
The main finding from this exercise is that transition dynamics are able to explain the cross-country income level dispersion as well as steady-state regressions do.
Table 2 shows how dispersion and distortion are influenced by the perception of fundamental values.
At the same time this ' multi ' approach and the dispersion of the groups of pastoralists makes the book useful for teaching purposes.
The two main problems to be faced when designing a finite-difference scheme for a partial differential equation are: numerical losses and numerical dispersion.

At first glance, dispersion patterns appear to be promising tools to interpret possible underlying processes from age-intensity profiles.
We have indicated that the reliability of interpreting dispersion patterns is strongly reduced when taking the superposition of different processes or sample sizes into account.
Whether those with passive cercarial dispersion and those with abbreviated life-cycles are equally vulnerable to pollution has yet to be investigated.
Moreover, the combined dispersion of the two gratings is zero, since they are mounted in the subtractive dispersion.
