How can you use “diurnal” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Both the proportion of days and the average number of consecutive days with maximum diurnal relative humidity less than 50% were negatively related to fungal abundance (r 2= 0.43, P < 0.01; r 2= 0.56, P < 0.001, respectively) and richness (r 2= 0.70, P < 0.001; r 2= 0.72, P < 0.001, respectively).

  • In agreement with this result, mice with albino eyes that are homozygous for tyrosinase or pink eye dilution mutations have altered diurnal rhythms compared to pigmented mice [ 75 ] . Albinism by itself is either not sufficient to alter the diurnal rhythm of IOP or alters it in different ways depending upon genetic background, however, since the albino strains BALB/cByJ and SWR/J had increased IOP during the dark.

  • Exposing rats to 24 hours of low light abrogates the diurnal fluctuation of IOP and results in constantly elevated IOP [ 36 ] . Further experiments will determine the nature of the diurnal rhythm of IOP in the albino B6 mice and if its alteration or other mechanisms result in IOP elevation.

  • In support of a later effect of anesthesia (since general anesthesia is reported to mask diurnal variation in IOP [ 21 ] ), we identified increased IOP during the dark compared to the light period of the day in several tested strains (Figure 6).

  • The fact that studies investigating the diurnal profile of these hormones found similar hormonal changes over the entire 24-h period after experimental sleep restriction also corroborates our results [18,19].
