  2. Stratification (vegetation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratification_(vegetation)

    Through the formation of different layers a given habitat is better utilized. Strongly vertically stratified habitats are very stable ecosystems. The opposite is not true, because several less stratified vegetation types, such as reed beds, can be very stable. The layers of a habitat are closely interrelated and at least partly interdependent.

  3. Population structure (genetics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_structure...

    Population structure (also called genetic structure and population stratification) is the presence of a systematic difference in allele frequencies between subpopulations.In a randomly mating (or panmictic) population, allele frequencies are expected to be roughly similar between groups.

  4. Stratification (seeds) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratification_(seeds)

    Any seeds that are indicated as needing a period of warm stratification followed by cold stratification should be subjected to the same measures, but the seeds should additionally be stratified in a warm area first, followed by the cold period in a refrigerator later. Warm stratification requires temperatures of 15–20 °C (59–68 °F).

  5. Spatial heterogeneity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_heterogeneity

    The spatial stratified heterogeneity categorises the geographic phenomena whose the within-strata variance of its attributes' values is significantly lower than its between-strata variance, such as collections of ecological zones or land-use classes within a given geographic area depict.

    The lining of the oesophagus is an example of a non-keratinized or "moist" stratified epithelium. [11] Parakeratinized In this case, the most apical layers of cells are filled with keratin, but they still retain their nuclei. These nuclei are pyknotic, meaning that they are highly condensed.

  7. Lake stratification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_stratification

    Lake stratification is the tendency of lakes to form separate and distinct thermal layers during warm weather. Typically stratified lakes show three distinct layers: the epilimnion, comprising the top warm layer; the thermocline (or metalimnion), the middle layer, whose depth may change throughout the day; and the colder hypolimnion, extending to the floor of the lake.

    One example of pathological irritation is cigarette smoke, which causes the mucus-secreting ciliated pseudostratified columnar respiratory epithelial cells that line the airways to be replaced by stratified squamous epithelium, or a stone in the bile duct that causes the replacement of the secretory columnar epithelium with stratified squamous ...
