Sentences with phrase «measurement techniques such»

Ocean heat flux is a turbulent and complex system [7] which utilizes atmospheric measurement techniques such as eddy covariance to measure the rate of heat transfer expressed in the unit of joules or watts per second.

The group uses a variety of measurement techniques such as sonic anemometers, hot wires, snow particle counters and shadowgraphy, which involves illuminating the flow with snow particles from one side of the tunnel — the walls are made of glass — and obtaining images with a high - speed camera from the other side.

Meanwhile the light - subtracting techniques may improve measurements of other phenomena, such as large - scale galaxy motions and the expansion of the universe.

He adds that the technique will improve measurements of astronomical distances, which build on the distances of nearby objects such as M33 to estimate the distances to other «standard candles» farther away, such as supernovae.

The systems can also enhance other techniques, such as patch clamp measurements applied in electrophysiology.

Another team, led by Mark Kasevich at Stanford University in California, first demonstrated in 2007 that such an interferometer could measure G. Tino's team has «achieved a more than ten-fold improvement in measurement accuracy» of G with the interferometry technique, says Kasevich.

Also, it is expected that the technique will be applied not only to astronomy, but also to wide - ranging fields such as spectroscopy, information network systems, atmospheric environment measurement, medical diagnostic technology, and fusion plasma diagnostics.

The researchers used the techniques, such as fluorescent correlation spectroscopy and confocal microscopy, for measurements of protein - mineral binding.

Noise has traditionally been difficult to study in biology, because most biological techniques, such as measurement of gene activity, average the output of many cells, erasing individual variability.

Acoustic emission measurements collected during electrochemical tests, combined with advanced imaging techniques such as transmission X ‐ ray microscopy, provide a window into the internal workings of battery materials during energy storage cycles.

Acoustic emission measurements collected during electrochemical tests, combined with advanced imaging techniques such as transmission X ‐ ray microscopy, provide a window into the internal workings of battery materials...

To understand the structure and dynamical properties of such systems, the research team headed by Ilya Shmulevich integrates data from a variety of measurements using models and techniques from mathematics, physics, and engineering.

Additionally, as this research uses proton nuclei within the probes, instead of heteronuceli such as carbon or nitrogen, any currently installed hospital MRI scanner can record these measurements which may ensure a rapid uptake of this technique.

While stereophotogrammetry, which uses photos to make 3D measurements of cloud boundaries, has been used before to study cloud behavior, Romps» innovation was a technique that does not require a reference point, such as a mountain or other land - based feature.

Paper J notes that the anthropogenic effect on sea level rise in one region of the world (the Pacific Ocean) over one period of time (1993 - 2013) is too small to detect at a statistically significant level due to factors such as: a) small sample size (only 20 years), b) the effect of control variables (such as the IPO), c) limitations of satellite altimetry measurement, the technique being used to measure sea level in paper H. Paper K offers a contrasting account of paper J, noting that part of the Pacific sea level rise is anthropogenic.

The width of each year's curve reflects the uncertainty in the annual temperature values (caused by factors such as changes in measurement techniques and the fact that some parts of the world have more sparse station coverage).

If such a technique is accepted then why did we ever bother with taking so many temperature measurements in the first place?

While modern satellite - based techniques such as laser altimetery and gravity anomaly measurements provide important information on very recent changes, to get at the longer term we must rely on less direct methods.

Such limited investigation however, may in part be due to the difficulties associated with population access, systematic sampling, cultural and language barriers, limited cross culturally validated measurement techniques, and wariness of parents and participants to trust researchers (Richman, 1993; Silove, Sinnerbrink, Field, Manicavasagar & Steel, 1997).
