    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin's_Ground_Squirrel

    Description. Franklin's ground squirrel is a typically sized squirrel, with adults measuring from 36 to 41 cm (14 to 16 in) in total length, including the 11 to 15 cm (4.3 to 5.9 in) tail. Males weigh about 370 g (13 oz) in the spring, and up to 950 g (34 oz) in the fall. In comparison, females are significantly lighter, and put on ...

  4. Borderline tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borderline_tree

    Borderline tree. Borderline tree is a term used in forestry . It is a concept that comes from variable radius plots, or point sampling. It happens when a tree cannot be easily determined as in or out when using a prism or angle gauge. Borderline trees occur only when the distance from the sampling point to the center of the tree is equal to the ...

  5. Diffusion-controlled reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion-controlled_reaction

    Diffusion-controlled reaction. Diffusion-controlled (or diffusion-limited) reactions are reactions in which the reaction rate is equal to the rate of transport of the reactants through the reaction medium (usually a solution). [1] The process of chemical reaction can be considered as involving the diffusion of reactants until they encounter ...

    Growth curve (biology) Figure 1: A bi-phasic bacterial growth curve. A growth curve is an empirical model of the evolution of a quantity over time. Growth curves are widely used in biology for quantities such as population size or biomass (in population ecology and demography, for population growth analysis), individual body height or biomass ...

  8. Butler–Volmer equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butler–Volmer_equation

    Butler–Volmer equation. In electrochemistry, the Butler–Volmer equation (named after John Alfred Valentine Butler [1] and Max Volmer ), also known as Erdey-Grúz –Volmer equation, is one of the most fundamental relationships in electrochemical kinetics. It describes how the electrical current through an electrode depends on the voltage ...

  9. Debye–Hückel theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debye–Hückel_theory

    The Debye–Hückel theory was proposed by Peter Debye and Erich Hückel as a theoretical explanation for departures from ideality in solutions of electrolytes and plasmas. It is a linearized Poisson–Boltzmann model, which assumes an extremely simplified model of electrolyte solution but nevertheless gave accurate predictions of mean activity coefficients for ions in dilute solution.
