Sap sweetness has been observed to be lower in years following a growing season when conditions were unfavorable for production of sugar through photosynthesis. For example, if a stand is attacked one year by insects that defoliate the maple trees, the next year’s sap would be expected to be low in sugar. Some scientists have speculated that a vigorously growing tree might use up so much of the sugar produced by the leaves that it would have a lower sugar content the following year.

Genetics and the environment both affect sap sweetness. Some trees have one or more genes that cause sweeter sap. Environmental factors including weather, the site on which the tree is growing, and whether the tree is growing in the open or surrounded by other trees all affect sap sweetness.

Since we use the milk naturally as it comes from the goat, there is a seasonal variation in the milk solids which causes the texture to vary. The goats seem to know that in the winter we need more solids which causes the consistency to be thicker and in the summer less which results in a lighter, thinner texture.

Sweet means "pleasing" to the taste. And sweetness is the pleasure or enjoyment that comes from food that tastes sweet. The desire for the pleasure of sweetness has a strong influence on what people choose to eat and drink. Since early times, people have sought out foods with sweet taste; for example, drawings on the walls of Egyptian tombs show bee-keepers collecting honey and sugar cane was grown in India some 2000 years ago.

The majority of the potatoes in the U.S. are harvested between August and October and are then shipped from storage through the spring. After three or four months in storage, potatoes can become more susceptible to bruising, greening or sprouting. Inspect your potatoes before purchasing and make sure your produce manager knows about any defects.

Seasonal weather conditions have the most impact on the amount of natural gas you use. When it's cold outside, your furnace goes on more frequently and runs longer to warm your home. Your water heater also stays on longer to heat the colder incoming water. Aside from weather-related and other changes in your gas appliance usage patterns, your bill may vary due to changes in wholesale natural gas prices, which change based on market conditions.

A one-cone difference is common from top to bottom of an unvented kiln. You can observe this difference with cone groups set at different levels. The difference can grow great with larger electric kilns, especially when firing to low temperatures. For example, cone 03 has bent on a top shelf when only cone 05 has bent on a bottom shelf. Tests have shown a 30° difference top to bottom on high fires and 80° difference when low firing.

Flight times vary by season because atmospheric conditions, in particular wind speeds, affect flight times. The jet stream is an upper-atmosphere wind stream that blows from west to east. During the winter, the wind speed is much faster than during the summer months. As a result, traveling from east to west during the winter months will take longer than similar travel during the summer. In the reverse, traveling west to east in the winter months will be much shorter than during the summer.

The intensity of autumn leaf color is a result of temperature and moisture during the fall.The best colors develop when the day temperatures are warm and the night temperatures are cool below 45 F but above freezing, and the soil has plenty of moisture. The more days with these kind of conditions the better and more intense the fall colors will be. Training your young plant to become a well developed tree is quite easy.

Shea Butter is a natural product and will vary from batch to batch depending on current crop output. As with any naturally produced product, color and consistency cannot be controlled as Mother Nature cannot be controlled!!

The tests are affected by "Internet congestion", which could be occuring anywhere between your ISP's Point-of-presence and the computer that servers the test pages. Your through-put readings may be more stable if you try the tests at an off-peak time, such as late at night. You could also try the mirror site which is based in Ohio.

Seasonality and availability influence the price of each flower variety. Flowers out-of-season in North America may be obtained from growers as far away as Australia, New Zealand, South Africa or Holland as well as other distant locations. The following flowers are generally available throughout the year with relatively little price fluctuation: alstroemeria, anthurium, carnations, chrysanthemums, gardenias, gerberas, gladiolus, liatris, orchids (dendrobium) and snapdragons.

We use only fresh tomatoes, onions and peppers, and NEVER cook the salsa, so we're only as good as what Mother Nature provides on the day we produce. We select only the finest, freshest and most flavorful produce each day. Sometimes, based on the season of the year, we get variation in flavor, texture and the natural moisture in the tomatoes.

Timothy Gold (2nd Cut Timothy) is harvested later in the year and in the high altitude of Diamond Valley, Nevada the weather is sometimes unpredictable. On years when there is an early freeze the hay has to be harvested before it gets very long in length and before it has a chance to turn lusciously green. On these years the Timothy Gold (2nd Cut Timothy) tends to have a small percentage of brown leaves and is sometimes shorter than that of a full growing season.

Unfortunately, a discount marketer has purchased some EpiCor and is selling it far under market price. The contents of the inexpensive product looks nothing like the real thing. These products are, most likely, cut with fillers, which is most unfortunate because pure EpiCor is an exceptional immune system modulator.

The number of days between meter readings (which is indicated on you bill). Each monthly bill normally covers 30 days; however, holidays, weekends and extreme weather may cause fluctuations. Temperature, clouds, and water table levels (for those with wells) all affect the amount of power used.

Forget the myth that it always rains in Scotland! The mild, soft climate is influenced by the warmth of the Gulf Stream. Often a light breeze blows, and the summer temperatures are not too hot for pleasant walking. When it rains, it is usually in the form of showers. It doesn't rain for days, or even all day, as it does, for example, in central Europe.

Access - some facilities are only available during peak periods and are closed for the rest of the year If you are unsure whether a toilet is open on a particular day, we suggest you contact the provider listed on the toilet details page.

While prices vary accordingly, our technicians are constantly improving through ongoing education. Whatever price point you seek, you'll enjoy superior service with a touch to make your day.

Everyone who starts to use a home monitor is surprised by the amount that the readings vary from each other. Even if you take three readings in a row (as we recommend) they may vary by as much as 20 points. Typically, the first of the three will be higher than the other two. Blood pressure goes up and down as we breathe in and out, so no two readings are ever the same.

Variations occur due to each individual's energy state and toxicity levels as toxins in the body are re-ionized at the molecular level and react with the metals of the array.

BootP initialises and automatically assigns the IP address of the instrument on Power up. The BootP server must have knowledge of the MAC address of the instrument. Whereas DHCP can be set to reinitialise or lease the address, subnet mask, DNS name, and other parameters, dynamically or at certain periods (24Hrs for example). DHCP does not necessarily have to have prior knowledge of the instrument. Depending on the setup of DHCP the instrument may not be guaranteed the same IP address every time.

The texture can vary due to time of year (hot/cold weather) and size of the chicken or turkey. The temperature and age can affect the birds taste, tenderness and dryness.

All our prices listed on the site are inclusive of any taxes and shipping. Therefore, the price you see if the price you pay - there are NO hidden costs. As goods are shipped from within Europe, we must charge VAT (Value Added Tax) at 17.5% within the UK and Europe. For other countries, we are able to ship items without charging VAT and therefore, the price is lower. To comply with tax regulations, we can only ship to the country specified when you placed your order.

GPS coverage varies according to the lines of sight between your device and the GPS satellites. Nearby buildings and weather conditions can sometimes interfere with reception. We also find that reception varies widely amongst devices.

The scans on this site are originated from various sources. Many have scanned by us but others have been donated by fans from around the world. In the latter case we have little control over the quality of either the source material or the scans themselves. Most scans that are sent in are very good indeed but some do vary in quality and size.
