Some larger Stage II grants may be funded, but the focus is now on the third and final stage of the grant program, which supports large - scale distance learning programs at institutions — so - called «Virtual Universities» — at which ALN enrollment is expected to be 10 % to 20 % of the total student number.

Unfortunately, satellite orbits are difficult to measure: at large distances, the object's motion in the sky is so minute that it is simply unobservable over a human lifespan.

It is more unusual to visualize the collision if the «particles» are so large as to overlap each other at relatively great distances.

So far, they have succeeded in creating a stable four - dimensional spacetime, when viewed at large distances.

One explanation is that the long fractures in the ice crust experience more stress as gravitational tidal forces push and pull on the moon and so open vents at larger distances from Jupiter.

So far the direct detection has only been able to show giant exoplanets, several times larger than Jupiter and orbiting at great distances from their stars.

«Migratory species... they're species that move long distances and are exposed to many threats, and they say something about the general state of landscape at a large scale because they integrate space so well,» said Henry.

I think the general assumption is that it's probably a bit below marathon distance — so it would be really interesting to see a study like this, with a very large number of participants, at a marathon.

Objects close to the camera are somewhat blurry so that your eyes look further to the distance, as if you were gazing at something far away or particularly large.

Long - distance hikers may also cross through Eglin Air Force Base — at 724 square miles, it's one of the world's largest Air Force bases — so permits are required for this stretch.

It's camera isn't good at tracking over large distances, so the game has you sitting in a chair.

He was already playing with the medium's relation to painting, with the line between abstraction and figuration, with an abolition of traditional perspective, with the theme of global commercialism, with picture sizes so large that viewers» experience of the work changed noticeably at different distances.

Including emission along a path (Schwarzchild's equation), a flux will approach saturation as the optical thickness becomes large over scales where the temperature variation is small; at smaller optical thicknesses, the temperature distribution may vary and larger temperature variations make the nonlinearity of the Planck function important, but over short distances, the temperature variation can be approximated as linear and the associated Planck function values can be approximated as linearly proportional to distance for small temperature changes, so the flux will approach an asymptotic value as a hyperbolic function (the difference between the flux and the saturation value of the flux will be proportional to 1 / optical thickness per unit distance (assuming isotropic optical properties (or even somewhat anisotropic properties), it will have that proportionality for all directions and thus for the whole flux across an area).

But when optical thickness gets to a significant value (such that the overall spatial temperature variation occurs on a spatial scale comparable to a unit of optical thickness), each successive increment tends to have a smaller effect — when optical thickness is very large relative to the spatial scale of temperature variation, the flux at some location approaches the blackbody value for the temperature at that location, because the distances photons can travel from where they are emitted becomes so small that everything «within view» becomes nearly isothermal.

Further complicating the use of these proxies is the fact that the deviation in oxygen - 18 ratios is affected by the amount of TC rainfall, the distance from the center of the cyclone at which the rain was produced, and the intensity of the cyclone — so I doubt these proxies alone will enable disentangling intensity and rainfall, tnough a large number of samples over an area could reveal information about the track and extent of the TC event.

With respect to my Venus / Earth temperatures comparison, I found the Venus / Earth ratio of temperatures at equal pressures to be 1.176, which implies an incident power ratio of 1.91, just that provided by the ratio of the two planets» distances from the Sun ** (and thus proving there is no greenhouse effect, even for so large a CO2 increase as from 0.04 % on Earth to 96.5 % on Venus).

Both wind and ocean currents transport energy large distances, so the final surface temperature and storage are smeared from the direct input locations, and the temperature at the edge of the atmosphere has inputs from many locations.
