pHjakauma
PHjakauma is a term used in Estonian-language scientific literature to refer to the distribution of pH values within a set of samples or within a given environment. It is commonly used in environmental chemistry, soil science, limnology, and related fields to describe how acidity or basicity is spread across samples.
The construction blends pH with jakauma, an Estonian word meaning distribution; in some texts it appears as
Data collection involves obtaining multiple pH measurements using calibrated meters or indicators, ensuring representative sampling, handling
Analysis often uses descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation) and visualizations such as histograms or kernel
Applications include monitoring soil acidity, assessing pollution impact on aquatic systems, and tracking changes over time
Limitations include sampling bias, spatial heterogeneity, and temporal variability; proper interpretation requires context about sampling design
Related concepts include pH, distribution, histogram, probability density function, and soil pH. The term is primarily
