Stocking rates are expressed as the number of animal unit months (AUM) supplied by one acre of land. The greater the difference between current forage production and the potential forage production of a pasture, the greater the difference will be between carrying capacity and recommended stocking rate.
The fundamental frequency of a wave is the lowest frequency (longest wavelength) that can be used to define its period. The easiest way to understand it is via a musical analogy: The fundamental frequency is the root tone of the overtone or harmonic series.
The absolute frequency is the number of times that a certain value appears in a statistical study. It is denoted by fi. The sum of the absolute frequencies is equal to the total number of data, which is denoted by N. This sum is commonly denoted by the Greek letter Ï (capital sigma) which represents 'sum'. The relative frequency is the quotient between the absolute frequency of a certain value and the total number of data. It can be expressed as a percentage and is denoted by ni. The sum of the relative frequency is equal to 1.
