Hosts arranged in order of increasingspecificgravityand hardness (see table 4).From theCambridge English Corpus
Thespecificgravityand moisture content (w/w) of each wood sample were determined by displacement and oven drying methods, respectively.From theCambridge English Corpus
We therefore assumed a mean woodspecificgravityequal to 0.63 g cm-3 for all the trees in the plots.From theCambridge English Corpus
The introduction of a slight negative buoyancy (withspecificgravity1.03) helped to retain the beads in the bottom layer during motion.From theCambridge English Corpus
The long life span of this species may be caused by wood durability with a highspecificgravityand abundant defensive compounds.From theCambridge English Corpus
We also developed a different strategy to estimate the woodspecificgravityof the trees in our plots.From theCambridge English Corpus
The simplest method of measuring thespecificgravityof a liquid is the hydrometer.From theCambridge English Corpus
Using this method, it is possible to obtain thespecificgravityof 1 cc. of fluid.From theCambridge English Corpus
Extreme radial changes in woodspecificgravityin some tropical pioneers.From theCambridge English Corpus
Given that thespecificgravityof dry soil-free dung was 0.42 compared to 1.61 for soil, it was possible to calculate the volume of dung present.From theCambridge English Corpus
But to compensate for long-term aquarium evaporation, it is far more convenient to use a hydrometer to characterize thespecificgravitywhile adding pure water as needed.From theCambridge English Corpus
The vestibular sensory epithelium comprises type 1 and type 2 hair cells, covered with a gelatinous membrane which has aspecificgravityequal to that of the endolymph.From theCambridge English Corpus
Geographic variation in woodspecificgravity: effects of latitude, temperature, and precipitation.From theCambridge English Corpus
Assuming that the original acid had aspecificgravityof 1-841, the stock should have a gravity of 1-550 after it has become cool.From theCambridge English Corpus
Radial gradients in thespecificgravityof wood in some tropical and temperate trees.From theCambridge English Corpus
