Sentence examples for spectrum of vegetation from inspiring English sources

England shares with the rest of Britain a diminished spectrum of vegetation and living creatures, partly because the island was separated from the mainland of Europe soon after much of it had been swept bare by the last glacial period and partly because the land has been so industriously worked by humans.

As mentioned above the plot estimates of AGB are limited in time and space, and might thus not represent the full spectrum of vegetation types or AGB [27].

The study plots on Mount Silam range from 280 to 870 masl in elevation, documenting a broad spectrum of vegetation changes with altitude.

All macronutrient deficiencies tested reduced chlorophyll concentration, increase reflectance in the visible range and caused a shift in the position of the red edge (the point of maximum slope on the reflectance spectrum of vegetation between red and near-infrared wavelengths) toward shorter or longer wavelengths; depending upon the element.

The first microscope collected fluorescence spectra of vegetations, and allowed us to show that control and ofloxacin treated vegetations had different fluorescence patterns between 390 and 540 nm.

There was no significant difference in stand volume for spot control 2 and spot control 5 at 2.5 years; however, the spectrum of competitive vegetation had shifted to one dominated by grasses in the latter treatment.

In addition, leaf, needle, stem bark and branch bark visible and near-infrared (VNIR) reflectance spectra, and VNIR reflectance spectra of ground vegetation were measured.

We measured leaves, small branches and bark of the main trees and shrubs in the area and samples of leaf-litter and grasses, totalizing 1954 reflectance spectra belonging to 26 different types of vegetation (76.7 spectra on average per vegetation type, range: 15-235; see Table 1 in Additional File 2 for a complete list).

Pollen spectra established some stages of vegetation development that reflect progressive cooling.

Some conservationists suggest using livestock as "ecosystem engineers" to increase habitat heterogeneity in rangelands because birds require a spectrum of sparse to dense vegetation cover.

To drive photosynthesis, plants absorb a lot of light in the visible area of the spectrum, so more vegetation cover decreases the amount of visible light reflected back into space.
