In each transect we measured six local scale variables: density of fruiting trees, fruit abundance, canopy height, canopy cover, ground cover, and elevation.
The size of broken branches differed among tree species, probably as a result of differences in the density of fruits per branch, branch strength, and ease of handling the branches.
If figs were to be cut out of a forest or the fig wasps were to somehow be removed, there would almost certainly be a dramatic reduction in animal life, as is suggested by the lower population densities of fruit-eating mammals on small islands that lack figs.
They're molded to the exact shape of the fruit itself, and the material they're made of is customized to be the average density of the fruit, as well.
For a sample of randomly selected navel oranges, a high level of correlation was found between ultrasonic measurements and the density of the fruit, allowing the relative water content of oranges to be non-destructively determined regardless of individual physical characteristics such as size and maturity.
In previous report (Harel-Beja et al. 2010), netting was evaluated by netting covering and netting density of melon fruit.
Likewise, the high density of preferred fruit trees in montane forest in Thung Yai probably attracts relatively high densities of black bears, making sun bears less apt to use this habitat.
Fewer crystals were seen in parthenocarpic fruits of all species in relation to the density of the fruits with seed (Table 4).
Fruit availability (density of trees bearing fruit) is highest in MEF, moderate in SEF, and lowest in MDF (see Results).
