PC_s1 was a general description of site climatic conditions, with highly significant effects from all variables (temperature, VPD and precipitation for the growing season and for the entire year).

Whereas, vapour pressure deficit (VPD) did not show a significant trend, except for an increase at the South-eastern most site of Covert Wood (Table 2 ).

Comparing the quartets with 2 archaea and 2 bacteria to the remaining quartets using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test revealed that the difference between the two sets is extremely significant (Z-score greater than 1000).

Statistical computations show that these differences in HGT frequency are highly significant.

And among Europeans, existence stronger in North European, and barely significant in South European, and not being in South European.

For the vast number of subsets, the difference in patient survival between the subgroups remained significant or stayed close to the level of significance obtained for the full data set, although p-values of the log-rank tests increased with increasing number of excluded patients (Fig. 1 C).

The 5-year moving average showed a slightly increasing trend between the 1980s and the 2010s in all three prefectures (Fig. 1 d–f).

Although the trend distributed over the whole time series at different moving levels was roughly the same, a decreasing trend of the change rate was observed varying with the Y values among these levels.

The results indicated that annual wind speeds for the MYR wide valley regions declined significantly at decadal rates of − 0.216 m/s and underwent three stages from 1960 to 2015: an increasing trend from 1960 to 1975 (0.44 m/s per decade), a weakening until 2006 (− 0.46 m/s per decade), and a remarkable subsequent recovery (1.05 m/s per decade).

Furthermore, the difference was highly significant for 50-Hz stimulation and for 140-Hz pulses.

30 reported a 0.8% FQ resistance rate among non-MDR strains detected across multiple hospitals in South Korea while revealing an increasing trend over the last two decades.

This infers that other mesoscale motions may have a decreasing trend over this 24-years period which offsets the increasing trend of coherent mesoscale eddies.

Basal carbon isotope values then increase with salinity 31 − 33 while the increasing proportion of production based on N-fixation towards oceanic waters generates a decreasing trend in δ 15 N values 32 , 34 .

Additionally, there was a decreasing trend in total amounts of decadal summer precipitation from four out of the six stations (Table 2 ) although this trend was not statistically significant.

This increasing trend became partially significant, i.e., significant in west central but not in east central LMRAV.

A p value of < 0.05 was considered significant, and p < 0.01 was considered highly significant.

Furthermore, l -theanine was also associated with a trend of increased SSRT compared to placebo (β = 0.04, p = 0.053) that approached significance.

We also noted a statistical trend of increase in the SSRT (i.e. a trend of deterioration of inhibitory control) with the intake of l -theanine.

The fitting degree of these equations was significant or highly significant, demonstrating the suitability of these models to diagnose N deficiency and fertilization needs in maize plants grown in the hilly areas of central Sichuan.

Calculated resistance to capillary flow showed a decreasing trend during exercise (L0 versus exercise levels 1–3), but did not reach statistical significance (p = 0.21 for L0 versus L1, Fig. 2 h).

Analysis by ATAC and RNA sequencing demonstrates a clear trend in the loss of neurogenesis-related motif accessibility and expression.

Therefore, the intensity of this peak indicates the moisture content, which exhibited a decreasing trend with the increasing content of SSO 7 .

Although the ImageNet challenge showed a trend towards higher accuracies through increasing the number of layers in a CNN, this may not be necessary for a medical image classification task.

The relationship between the cf-DNA level tertiles and mortality was also dose-responsive, although the difference between the middle and highest tertile was only borderline significant (Supplementary Figure S2 ).

In our study, the average number of crossover events was 2.06 cM/Mb (Table 1 ), smaller than that in rice 4.53 cM/Mb 16 , suggesting a negative trend between genome size and recombination crossover events rates.
