...For example, fractal dimension is a measure of shape complexity (Burrough 1986, Mandelbrot 1982, Milne 1988) that can be computed for each patch and then averaged for the landscape, or it can be computed from the landscape as a whole (by using the box-count method [Morse and others 1985])....

...Fractal analysis usually is applied to the entire landscape mosaic by using the perimeter-area relationship A = k P2/D, where k is a constant (Burrough 1986)....

...If sufficient data are available, the slope of the line obtained by regressing log(P) on log(A) is equal to 2/D (Burrough 1986)....
