The physiological density or real population density is the number of people per unit area of arable land . A higher physiological density suggests that the available agricultural land is being used by more and may reach its output limit sooner than a country that has a lower physiological density. Egypt is a notable example, with physiological ...
Population density is the number of people per unit of area, usually transcribed as "per square kilometer" or square mile, and which may include or exclude, for example, areas of water or glaciers. Commonly this is calculated for a county, city, country, another territory or the entire world . The world's population is around 8,000,000,000 [3 ...
Arable density (m² per capita) by country. This is a list of countries ordered by physiological density."Arable land" is defined by the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization, the source of "Arable land (hectares per person)" as land under temporary crops (double-cropped areas are counted once), temporary meadows for mowing or for pasture, land under market or kitchen gardens, and land ...
This is a list of countries and dependencies ranked by population density, sorted by inhabitants per square kilometre or square mile. The list includes sovereign states and self-governing dependent territories based upon the ISO standard ISO 3166-1. The list also includes unrecognized but de facto independent countries.
This measure is known as the physiological cross-sectional area (PCSA), and is commonly calculated and defined by the following formula, developed in 1975 by Alexander and Vernon: [4] [5] [6] where ρ is the density of the muscle: PCSA increases with pennation angle, and with muscle length. In a pennate muscle, PCSA is always larger than ACSA.
The area density (also known as areal density, surface density, superficial density, areic density, mass thickness, column density, or density thickness) of a two-dimensional object is calculated as the mass per unit area. The SI derived unit is the kilogram per square metre (kg·m −2 ). A related area number density can be defined by ...
Physical property. A physical property is any property of a physical system that is measurable. [1] The changes in the physical properties of a system can be used to describe its changes between momentary states. A quantifiable physical property is called physical quantity. Measurable physical quantities are often referred to as observables.
Specific leaf area is a ratio indicating how much leaf area a plant builds with a given amount of leaf biomass: where A is the area of a given leaf or all leaves of a plant, and M L is the dry mass of those leaves. Typical units are m 2 /kg or mm 2 /mg. Leaf mass per area (LMA) is its inverse and can mathematically be decomposed in two ...
