Bryophyte divesity

... you walk along a line Ym long. Repeat several times for replication. Then you could try and fit your data to a species-area curve (diversity on Y-axis, area surveyed on X-axis). Usually, after a given distance, species diversity reaches an asymptote. If your data are asymptotic, you have probably ...

Re: molar extinction coefficient

If you plot molar concentration on the X axis and absorbance on the Y axis, the slop is the molar extinction coefficient (assuming a 1cm path spectrometer cell and units of M^-1 cm^-1 for the extinction coefficient). okay...yes i've already done ...

Re: molar extinction coefficient

... of their linear relationship (in the Beer's law range, A<~2) is the extinction coefficient. To lay it out explicitly, A=ec Y=mx Plot A on the Y axis, c on the X axis. The slope e of the plot is also e, the extinction coefficient. This made my head hurt when I first encountered it. But, it works ...
