attenuate

"Seismic waves attenuate rapidly for distances away from the source, and therefore have limited resolution when they reach the depths of interest."

Mhlanga: "Several lncRNAs play a role in this process, and single-letter differences -- SNP's in other words -- may also enhance or attenuate the effect of this inflammatory process. Further research is needed to understand the combined effect of multiple polymorphisms on these IL-1β-driven immune responses. Ultimately, we want to map all components of IL-1β signaling and trained immunity in order to find out their clinical usability. Importantly, nine out of ten SNPs are in noncoding regions of the genome."

The researchers were able to show that zooplankton species that are tolerant to oxygen deficiency consume sinking particles and thus attenuate the export fluxes of carbon to the deep sea.

“For example, individuals have been known to consistently drop the first note or add a tag note at the end, and different parts of the call attenuate at different rates over distance. If there is any question as to whether the bird may be a spotted owl, no removal should occur.”

Until now, structures with isotropic porosity have been applied, but these have the drawback that they exponentially attenuate the incident solar radiation as it travels into the reactor.
