Taylor's power law in human mortality
Demographic Research, 2015 Background: Taylor's law (TL) typically describes a linear relationship between the logarithm of the variance and the logarithm of the mean of population densities.

Relationship Between Mean Faecal Gastrointestinal Nematode Egg Excretion in Horses and Its Variability: Implications for Control [PDF]
PathogensFaecal egg counts (FECs) are used to assess the intensity of gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) infections in herbivores. FEC distribution is aggregated, meaning that approximately 20% of animals harbour 80% of infections.

Scaling behaviour of braided active channels: a Taylor’s power law approach
The European Physical Journal Plus, 2022 At a channel (reach) scale, braided channels are fluvial, geomorphological, complex systems that are characterized by a shift of bars during flood events. In such events water flows are channeled in multiple and mobile channels across a gravel floodplain

Predator–prey power laws: trophic interactions give rise to scale-invariant ecosystems
New Journal of Physics, 2023 Scaling laws and power-law distributions are ubiquitous in ecological systems. However, it is not clear what factors give rise to such universal regularities.

A note on Taylor's hypothesis under large-scale flow variation [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2014 Experimental investigations of turbulent velocity fields often invoke Taylor's hypothesis (also known as frozen turbulence approximation) to evaluate the spatial structure based on time-resolved single-point measurements.

Testing Taylor's Power Law association of maize interplant variation with mean grain yield
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2022 Plant-to-plant variability is a crop stability component. The objective of this study in maize (Zea mays L.) was to test the validity of the theoretical background of the hypothesis that the coefficient of variation (CV) for grain yield per plant and ...

Interspecific and intraspecific Taylor's laws for frog skin microbes
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2023 Amphibians are known to have an abundance of microorganisms colonizing their skin, and these symbionts often protect the host from disease. There are now many comprehensive studies on amphibian skin microbes, but the interspecific and intraspecific ...
