  2. Mycorrhizal network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycorrhizal_network

    Ectomycorrhizal networks send hyphae into the roots where they thread their way between the plant cells but do not penetrate cell walls. The arbuscular type is the most common among land plants and is regarded as the ancestral type.

  3. Transposition tower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transposition_tower

    In electrical power transmission, a transposition tower is a transmission tower that changes the relative physical positions of the conductors of a transmission line in a Polyphase system. A transposition tower allows these sections to be connected together, while maintaining adequate clearance for the conductors.

  4. Competition (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Competition_(biology)

    Competition is one of many interacting biotic and abiotic factors that affect community structure, species diversity, and population dynamics (shifts in a population over time). [ 3 ] There are three major mechanisms of competition: interference, exploitation, and apparent competition (in order from most direct to least direct).

  5. Transposition (transmission lines) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transposition...

    By twisting, the wires become longer than the cable. The stranding factor indicates the relationship of single wire length to cable length; it amounts to with communication cables about 1.02 to 1.04. In open wire lines used for long-distance (trunk or toll) telephone circuits, transposition was used for reducing cross-talk. Originally used to ...

  6. Non-line-of-sight propagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-line-of-sight_propagation

    Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) radio propagation occurs outside of the typical line-of-sight (LOS) between the transmitter and receiver, such as in ground reflections. Near-line-of-sight (also NLOS) conditions refer to partial obstruction by a physical object present in the innermost Fresnel zone.

  7. Abiotic component - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abiotic_component

    Humans can make or change abiotic factors in a species' environment. For instance, fertilizers can affect a snail's habitat, or the greenhouse gases which humans utilize can change marine pH levels. Abiotic components include physical conditions and non-living resources that affect living organisms in terms of growth, maintenance, and ...

  8. Faraday cage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage

    The reception or transmission of radio waves, a form of electromagnetic radiation, to or from an antenna within a Faraday cage is heavily attenuated or blocked by the cage; however, a Faraday cage has varied attenuation depending on wave form, frequency, or the distance from receiver or transmitter, and receiver or transmitter power.

  9. Fresnel zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_zone

    In order to ensure limited interference, such transmission paths are designed with a certain clearance distance determined by a Fresnel-zone analysis. The dependence on the interference on clearance is the cause of the picket-fencing effect when either the radio transmitter or receiver is moving, and the high and low signal strength zones are ...
