"Empirical observation" refers to the practice of gathering information or knowledge through direct or firsthand experiences, typically using the senses (sight, hearing, touch, etc.). It involves observing, measuring, and collecting data from the real world or actual events, rather than relying on theories, beliefs, or assumptions.
Full definition
The effect of faith on physical matter can be measured and verified as well as those affected by faith exhibit consistent change that can be verified
by empirical observation.
These results are consistent
with empirical observation, reflecting the longer construction process for office properties relative to the other property types.
Our research
uses empirical observations of embryos and natural populations with an aim toward advancing theory about the role of developmental processes in influencing evolutionary patterns.
Again,
many empirical observations could prove useful to teachers — for example, that intelligence can be improved with sustained cognitive work — but there is no single accepted theory of intelligence.
The response to the latter is that the observed behavior has to be modeled on the basis of physical principles — not
simply empirical observation.
The only thing that has changed my opinion has been openly
available empirical observation by objective scientists to answer criticisms about climate models.
Aside from the fact that solar effects can not physically explain the recent global warming, as with GCRs, there are
several empirical observations which solar warming could not account for.
Aside from the fact that solar effects can not physically explain the recent global warming, as with GCRs, there are several

The seven I focus on here — the wave equation, Maxwell's four equations, the Fourier transform and Schrödinger's equation — illustrate
how empirical observations have led to equations that we use both in science and in everyday life.
These new data emerge from new tools and methods, including personal sensors that capture individual exposures; advanced computational techniques for estimating chemical exposures in the absence of exposure - measurement data for humans; transgenic animals used to investigate specific exposure questions; and multi-omics methods of analysis that have transformed molecular epidemiology by investigating the underlying biological factors that often
complement empirical observations.
Wells adds that a team of about dozen specialists prepared the Wildlife Action Plan, from field observations to drafting — representing the first time that the District has
taken empirical observations and inventories into account for the plan.
In a paper in Geoscience Canada, Veizer (2005) states that «the multitude of
empirical observations favours celestial phenomena as the most important driver of terrestrial climate on most time scales `.
The notion that the reporters should be somehow prepped to cover topics selectively — downplaying cooling events, for instance — would be antithetical to the whole modern concept of science, which progresses from
empirical observations towards a conclusion.
