In this case, variability is key.

The mean of the pairwise differences does not measure the variability of the difference, and the variability as indicated by the standard deviation is around the mean instead of 0.

Foreign exchange interventions were conducted at times , aimed at limiting exchange rate variability .

Farmers have to get used to dealing with the variability of the weather.

There is remarkable variability in the role of sub national governments relative to central governments.

HIV presents perhaps the greatest challenge, because the virus leverages its extensive genetic variability to hide from the immune system.

But countries like Ethiopia have virtually no water storage facilities, great variability in rainfall, and attractive sites for hydroelectric generation.

For retirees and other people who need to spend soon, the year to year variability of the stock market commands caution.

The high variability of emissions and removals in forests means that annual emissions reduction targets that apply to other sectors are unsuitable.

To enhance absorption and minimise variability, injection into the deltoid or deep within the gluteus maximus muscle, avoiding adipose regions, is recommended.

At this point, it is premature to link the storm s severity to warmer sea surface temperatures, because regional variability is known to occur.

The planet likely featured more dry regions than Earth, but once had enough water and geographical variability to host life and guard against rapid evaporation.

Exchange rate volatility a measure of the variability of exchange rates , usually calculated on the basis of the annualised standard deviation of daily percentage changes .

It is too early to tell whether this blocking pattern is a manifestation of weather variability, a short term climate variation, or the result of climate change.

As a result of increased interannual variability of the runoff, above all seasonally, abnormally high water as well as abnormally low water years and seasons are possible.

The variability of inflation increases uncertainty and exerts a major negative influence on investment and thus on potential output as well as on other components of aggregate demand .

Recent research by the International Monetary Fund on the context specific variability of fiscal multipliers has raised serious questions about the costs and effectiveness of rapid fiscal consolidation.

In southern Ghana, for example, farmers have managed to reduce crop failures arising from rainfall variability and unpredictability by cultivating several drought tolerant types of the same crop species.

Exchange rate volatility a measure of the variability of exchange rates , usually calculated on the basis of the annualised standard deviation of daily percentage changes . ECB Convergence Report May 2006

Some microbes possess a gene that enhances their variability, and this allows them to mutate at different rates in response to factors in the environment something larger organisms rarely do.

All estimates of the possible impact of global warming suggest that a large part of the continent will become drier, and that the continent as a whole will experience greater climatic variability.

For example, although the synaptic density within a given area and layer may vary, this variability remains within a relatively narrow window, so the statistical distribution of the variation can be modeled.

Not losing the varieties of seeds depends on the producers raising awareness about avoiding transgenic seeds depends on all of us, those of us who are interested in maintaining our genetic variability.

One way to overcome the variability and potential distortions associated with market prices is to use a comparison on the basis of purchasing power parities ( PPPs ) , even if these measures have their own caveats .

Indeed, the study may actually significantly underestimate the costs for instance, climate change may lead to more weather variability, a possible disappearance or major shift of the Gulf Stream of particular concern to Europe and a flourishing of disease.

We know there is huge variability in how much local data is available not just across countries but within countries, with some cities and municipalities making major open data efforts, while in others there s little or no progress visible.

That means that we do not need to reconstruct the entire layer within a given area to determine the absolute number and types of synapses instead, the range of variability can be determined by multiple sampling of relatively small regions within that area.

With the concentration of greenhouse gases projected to rise still further over the next century, a corresponding increase in the global mean surface temperature is likely to trigger increased climate variability and greater incidence and intensity of extreme weather events, such as hurricanes and droughts.

Indeed, according to Chris Green and Isabel Galiana of McGill University, even with these breakthroughs, the intermittency and variability in wind and solar energy means that they are unlikely to be able to supply much more than 10 15 of grid based electricity without massive investment in such storage systems.

And there's a lot of things like global warming, and ozone hole and you know, a whole bunch of scientific public issues, that if you're interested in them, then you have to get down the details, and read the papers called, Large Decadal Variability in the ... You have to figure out what all those words mean.

This is a remarkable result given the considerable adverse price shocks that have hit the euro area . This firm anchoring of inflation expectations allows the medium term inflationary effect of adverse price shocks to be contained , thus avoiding possibly strong monetary policy reactions to such shocks , which could in turn have a negative effect on the variability of output .

It is therefore very important that such regulations offer sufficient room for manoeuvre i.e. enough plurality and variability to give new ideas that were not previously thought of the chance to be put into practice and not to be suffocated at birth or allowed to wither away slowly simply because they do not fit into the framework of existing regulation.
