Threshold Density

    0.01 sec.
Threshold Density 

the minimum darkening above the level of photographic fogging that is discernible on an exposed and developed photosensitive emulsion (photographic film or paper or cinematographic film). The threshold density is that point on the initial segment of the characteristic curve of the photographic material where the rate of change approaches zero.

The proposed threshold density not only explains the circumstances in which these stars form but accounts for their rarity, the researchers say.
First, as patch size decreases, smaller, more discrete, less dense populations of reservoirs result, some of which may be lowered below the threshold density of some potentially zoonotic microbes (13).
We conclude that the TIN method provides a reasonable spatial approach for generating biomass estimates for a fishery unsuited to geostatistics, but we suggest further studies into uncertainty estimation and the selection of threshold density values.
