Newell et al. 2022 observed the following relationship between precipitation p (measured in mm rainfall) on the abundance of arthropods A (measured in mg/m2 biomass) in Peru. I provided an image of the equation below (a) On what intervals does increasing precipitation increase biomass? (b) On what intervals does increasing precipitation decrease biomass? c)At what rate does increasing precipitation increase/decrease biomass in a rain forest that receives 500mm of rain annually?

Newell et al. 2022 observed the following relationship between precipitation p (measured in mm
rainfall) on the abundance of arthropods A (measured in mg/m2 biomass) in Peru.

I provided an image of the equation below

(a) On what intervals does increasing precipitation increase biomass?

(b) On what intervals does increasing precipitation decrease biomass?

c)At what rate does increasing precipitation increase/decrease biomass in a rain forest that
receives 500mm of rain annually? 

 

A(p) = -
(P-400
