Sentence examples for mean shoot density from inspiring English sources
From these observations, we estimated the mean shoot density by multiplying the standardized cover by shoot density.
The mean eelgrass biomass of the sites was 58 g DW m-2 (range; 30 120 g DW m-2) while the mean shoot density was 416 shoots m-2 (range 200 900 shoots m-2, Table 2).
Heavy equipment and steel implements also make it possible to trim roots, thereby stimulating root turnover; to slice through rhizomes and crowns, releasing apical dominance in underground stems; and to cultivate the surface in strips as a means of controlling shoot density.
Herbivory had isolated and inconsistent significant effects on below-ground biomass, shoot density, average number of leaves per shoot, and leaf length and width.
Five commonly used architectural measures (shoot density, number of leaves per shoot, mean leaf length, mean leaf width and shoot biomass) were measured from P. oceanica shoots collected from the two bed types at three different spatial scales: (1) tens of metres ('small' scale); (2) hundreds of metres ('medium' scale); and (3) kilometres ('large' scale).
Shoot density and average number of leaves per shoot increased significantly, while the C/N ratio of the oldest leaf in the enriched plots decreased significantly.
Our data also supported the use of the trigger point approach to initiate management intervention; shoot density beneath of the deck of the pier fell below the 30th percentile, ending 73% lower than the mean after 46 months.
Early season shoot thinning reduces both shoot density and potential crop.
Significant interactions were also apparent for shoot density (at the large scale) and for shoot biomass (at the medium scale).
The results of an ordinary kriging of both raw values of shoot density and normalized shoot density with reference to a density vs. depth model (Dn) were compared.
