Zoology / bark beetle infestation
German term or phrase: Ausprägungsrichtung
Ausprägungsrichtung

Study on the connection at the landscape level between habitat factors and the spread of the bark beetle (Ips typographus L) in a forest. This part discusses the EGVs. “Vergleicht man alle untersuchten Faktoren in ihrer kumulativen Bedeutung und Ausprägungsrichtung von 1990-2007..” “erbrachten, dass insbesondere die Höhenlage (dhm) eine hohe Bedeutung und konstante Ausprägungsrichtung aufweist”. I think Ausprägung is used in sense of preference: “Das Vorzeichen (-/+) gibt zudem eine weitere Information ob die Art eine jeweil geringe (-) oder hohe (+) Ausprägung / Präferierung für die untersuchte Habiatvariable bevorzugt.”
