Sketch of the equivalent area principle for samples II and I. Sdiskincluster and RII are the area and radius of each disk used in the elongated cluster of sample II. S0 is the overlap area of circular disks in the elongated cluster of sample II. SsampleII is the area of cluster in sample II. SsampleI and RI are the area and radius of disk in sample I.
