Fig. 5

Box plots of the log transformed values of the simulated unit areas and corresponding population counts and population densities, at specific target units. Each boxplot is composed of 100 simulations each using a unique random seed. The median is given by the bold black line and the mean given by a white circle (off plot boundaries for population density). The 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles are given by the blue horizontal lines (off plot boundaries for area).
