Figure 5

Comparison of trees built from the Poisson process with the probability r (1, H). The function r(1,H) = Π{Galton-Watson tree has height ≥ H} is plotted in red. Using trees from a simulated Poisson process, the function Π{tree from simulated Poisson process has height ≥ H} is plotted in blue. The plots include average height θ = 6 (A), θ = 9 (B), θ = 12 (C) and θ = 15 (D) for the case of fixed fragment lengths.
