Abstract
Discussion of some of the situations in which real surface fractal measurements have been made can be organized in two different ways. The preceding chapters have discussed the various measurement tools, including the kinds of microscopes (light, electron, scanned probe) used to acquire surface range or elevation images and the mathematical procedures applied to obtain the various fractal dimensions. Some mention of the findings from these studies and the use of these tools and simulations for real-world samples has been essential to explain the various approaches, but the emphasis has been on measurement techniques.
