| 集群现象 | colour composition A remote-sensing term referring to the process of assigning different colours to different spectral bands. The colour picture formed by this process is called a "colour composite" (a colour image produced through optical combination of multiband images by projection through filters) and is produced by assigning a colour to an image of the Earth's surface recorded in a particular waveband. For a Landsat colour composite, the green waveband is coloured blue, the red waveband is coloured green and the infrared waveband is coloured red. This produces an image closely approximating a false colour photograph. Colour composite images are easier to interpret than separate images recording different wavebands. US national experimental crop inventories are based upon visual interpretation of Landsat colour composites (遥感术语，指的是对不同的可见光带分配不同颜色的过程。在此过程中形成的色彩叫做"复合色"(一种色彩，采用过滤投射对多波段图像进行光学结合)，并且由为地球表面的图像记录制定色彩而形成。对于陆地卫星彩色合成，绿色波段是蓝色，红色波段是绿色，红外波段是红色。这将产生一个非常近似假彩照的图片。彩色复合图像比记录不同波长的单独图像更容易被理解。US国家实验作物资源目录是根据对陆地卫星色彩组成的视觉转换。) |
| 集群现象 | colonization The successful invasion of a new habitat by a species (对一个新栖息地的成功入侵。) |
| 顶级群落 | climax A botanical term referring to the terminal community said to be achieved when a sere (a sequential development of a plant community or group of plant communities on the same site over a period of time) achieves dynamic equilibrium with its environment and in particular with its prevailing climate. Each of the world's major vegetation climaxes is equivalent to a biome. Many botanists believe that climate is the master factor in a plant environment and that even if several types of plant succession occur in an area they will all tend to converge towards a climax form of vegetation (一个植物学术语。它指，当一个演替系列(在一段时间内，在同一个地方的一个植物群落或植物群集的一系列发展)在环境中特别是在线性气候中实现动态平衡时，终极群集就实现了。世界上每一种植物的顶级群落对于一个生物群系都是相同的。许多生物学家相信，气候是植物环境的主要因素，即使若干植物继承类型发生在它们将都趋向于形成植物的顶极群落的地区。) |
