Humility is a virtue that is helpful in a persons relationship with nature. A humble person sees value in nature and acts accordingly with the proper respect. In this paper, humility is discussed in three aspects. First, humility entails an overcoming of self-absorption. Second, humility involves coming into contact with a larger, more complex reality.

On the fractal properties of natural human standing
Neuroscience Letters, 2000We analyzed the temporal evolution of the displacement of the center of pressure (COP) during prolonged unconstrained standing (30 min) in non-impaired human subjects. The COP represents the collective outcome of the postural control system and the force of gravity and is the main parameter used in studies on postural control.

Phosphorus status in some natural desert truffle stands
Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 1998Abstract Little is known about the phosphorus (P) status of non agricultural soils, although some sites in drylands are potentially important for the production of desert truffles, a mycorrhizal association that may overcome the fertility deficiency. In this work we described the fertility characteristics with special emphasis on the P status of some ...

To collect reference data for the Timed Floor to Stand-Natural (TFTS-N) on a large, diverse sample of school children who are typically developing, taking into account age, sex, and body mass index (BMI).Five physical therapists administered the TFTS-N on a sample of convenience of 1476 school children who were typically developing, aged 5 to 14 years (

Changing Stand Structure and Regional Growth Reductions in Georgia's Natural Pine Stands
Forest Science, 1991Abstract Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) data indicate reductions in the growth of naturally regenerated pines in Georgia between the two latest measurement periods (1961-72 vs. 1972-82). Analysis of Covariance was used to adjust stand-level basal area growth rates for differences between periods in stand age, stand density, site ...

Above‐ground standing biomass and tree species diversity in natural stands of Central Europe
Journal of Vegetation Science, 2007AbstractQuestions: 1.Is the above‐ground biomass in natural temperate forests positively correlated with tree species diversity?2. Is this biomass related to the diversity of tree functional groups?Location: We used published data from over 100 permanent plots located in natural temperate forests in the Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia.Methods: We

Tree Diversity Drives Forest Stand Resistance to Natural Disturbances
Current Forestry Reports, 2017Forests are frequently exposed to natural disturbances, which are likely to increase with global change, and may jeopardize the delivery of ecosystem services. Mixed-species forests have often been shown to be more productive than monocultures, but it is unclear whether this results from mixed stands being in part more resistant to various biotic and ...

Experimental evolution reveals natural selection on standing genetic variation
Nature Genetics, 2009Evolution depends on genetic variation generated by mutation or recombination from standing genetic variation. In sexual organisms, little is known about the molecular population genetics of adaptation and reverse evolution. We carry out 50 generations of experimental reverse evolution in populations of Drosophila melanogaster, previously ...
