Sentence examples for debris density from inspiring English sources

Clear peaks in debris density are seen in LEO, MEO, and GEO.

Gaps were higher in herb cover, coarse woody debris density and volume as well as pit and mound micro topography than controls.

The concept of environmental critical loads is applied to heavily used orbits as a way to indicate acceptable debris density for satellite operations, and when debris density / risk thresholds approach unacceptable levels that reduce the probability of sustaining spacecraft operations in those orbits.

A modified Torino color-coded scale for near-Earth objects could be used, for example, to convey the consequence of increasing levels of debris density in each orbital vulnerability index map.

NFI compilation routines utilize algorithms for line intercept sampling to determine plot level volume and a lookup table of woody debris density values by species and decay class to determine mass.

This "cascading collisions" concept was borrowed from the theory of planetary ring formation, and suggests debris collisions could increase spatial debris density to a point that would prevent satellite operations in those orbits (Kessler and Cour-Palais 1978; Kessler 1991).

Open image in new window Fig. 5 Top debris spatial density increase in low earth orbit (LEO) from 2007 through 2014.

As the debris spatial density increases due to recent collisions and inoperative spacecraft, the probability of collisions in space grows.

As the debris spatial density in an orbit increases, the target load with safety factor threshold would eventually be exceeded (Fig. 8).

Lewis et al. ([2011]) calculated the increase of space debris concentration due to a decreasing trend in thermospheric density.

The influences of debris-flow density, baffle shape, and row spacing were investigated.
