Negative relation

Tenancy (rather than ownership) has been found to be negatively related to the adoption of sustainable practices. However, economic pressures may override incentives for conservation associated with land ownership. Membership in different types of farm organizations may be representative of, or may influence, farmers perceptions of acceptable farming practices and knowledge of sustainable practices (Nazarko et al. 2003)... 

Intake may be negatively correlated with residues due to repellency or avoidance positive relation between insect abundance and decision to use insecticide negative relation between use of insecticide and subsequent insect abundance positive relation between insect abundance and bird foraging behavior... 

The negative relation between K2 O and Fe2 03 also occurs in the illites and has been discussed. Fe203 is positively correlated with H20+ and presumably negatively with layer charge. H20+ (greater than 110°C) and H20 (less than 110°C) are inversely related. These correlations suggest some of the H20+ may be trapped interlayer water not easily released (at 110°C) from the clays with a high proportion of contracted layers or that chloritic layers increase as the proportion of expandable layers decrease. 

Andrew et o . ( 2) studied the effects of carbonate, orthophosphate, and pyrophosphate on the toxicity of copper(II) to Vapknia magna at constant pH and total hardness. They reported mortality rates and reciprocal survival times to be directly correlated with cupric and copper-hydroxo ion activities as de-tennined by equilibrium calculations. They also found toxicity to be negatively related to activities of soluble copper carbonate (CuC0°), and independent of total or dissolved copper concentration. Data for their set of experiments involving addition of orthophosphate are included in Table I but were not used in some... 

Usually hydrophobicity is encoded by - steric descriptors such as molar or - molecular volume which account satisfactorily for nonpolar interactions polarity can be described by polar terms which are negatively related to lipophilicity. An important factorization of lipophilicity is provided by the - solvatochromic parameters. Moreover, a measure of the global polarity of a given solute was proposed by Testa and coworkers [Testa and Seiler, 1981 El Tayar and Testa, 1993 Vallat et al., 1995] and called the interactive polar parameter A (or the Testa lipophobic constant). It is defined as the difference between the experimentally measured lipophilicity and that estimated for a hypothetical n-alkane of the same molecular volume V as ...

We will calculate the difference of the two entropy capacities Cp — Cy as our second example. These are the usual isobaric ( = ( p (at constant pressure) and the more rarely used isochoric capacity Qy (at constant volume). The latter must be smaller than C = Cp (as implied in Sect. 3.9), because the absorption of entropy is made more difficult if the change of volume (positive or negative) related to it is impeded. It makes no difference whether V and S are coupled in the same or in the opposite direction, i.e., F t S or F, S, ( p > Ov is always valid. To calculate the difference...
