Observation time refers to the specific amount of time spent closely watching or examining something or someone in order to gain information or knowledge about them.
Full definition
As mandated by state law, each lesson consists of 50 minutes of drive time and 50 minutes
of observation time for each student.
Over land, however, much larger uncertainties are present, and complex models are used to try and adjust for
changing observation times.
Between 1960 and today, the majority of stations switched from a late afternoon to an early
morning observation time, resulting a systemic change (and resulting bias) in temperature observations.
It's not easy to
obtain observation time for an observation proposal in a fierce competition among a large of number of researchers around the world.
With
longer observation times, faster images and clearer pictures, he says, great advances in many fields of biology are possible.
While I would be faithful to my current research topic, my dream would be to have
unlimited observation time, or larger telescopes in space.
Students attending schools with
remedial observation time actually spend more time in and around the trucks than students with one - on - one training.
Driver training is laboratory training, using both behind - the - wheel and in -
car observation time.
Yet despite its high public visibility and near - ubiquity in blockbuster Hollywood science fiction, throughout most of its 55 - year history SETI has languished on the fringes of scientific research, garnering relatively scant funding and only small amounts of dedicated
observation time on world - class telescopes.
Although their work would have to be approved by a scientific panel, they would be assured of 10 per cent of
observation time at the ESO telescopes at the La Silla observatory and probably 8 per cent at Paranal.
All four
observation time series are strongly intercorrelated due to this common natural variability input, as can be clearly seen in the paper: «Observations» doesn't really have much smaller whiskers than any of the four constituents.
If you're doing naked diaper -
free observation time with your baby or toddler, my Observation Log will definitely help.
Includes 6 hours of behind the wheel instruction and 6 hours of
observation time with qualified A-1 instructors.
The ALMA Observatory's Early Science Cycle 2 has attracted 1,382 proposals for
observation time submitted by the international scientific community durin...
Lastly, there is no mention (at least, I could not find it) of how NCEP / NCAR grid point data was interpolated to station locations and
station observation time (the gridded data is available only 4 times daily and how the author makes these times match is rather critical).
The second post will examine Time of Observation adjustments in more detail, using hourly data from the pristine U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN) to empirically demonstrate the potential bias introduced by
different observation times.
The observations were obtained in just 5 hours of
ALMA observation time — even though ALMA was still under construction at the time — similar quality observations with other telescopes have taken ten times longer.
We will also apply for
more observation time on the ALMA telescope to study the planet - forming discs in even higher resolution to get more detailed information about their chemical composition,» says Jes Jørgensen, associate professor in the research group Astrophysics and Planetary Science at the Niels Bohr Institute and Centre for Star and Planet Formation, University of Copenhagen.
We also have around 10 nights per
year observation time on bigger telescopes in public and professional observatories, which allows us to employ a narrow band methane filter to detect fireballs in Jupiter's upper atmosphere more efficiently.
A: We were able to
secure observation time in some of the most sophisticated astronomical instruments on the planet, and that resulted in several high - impact publications — some of which are still in the works.
Lengthy series of
observation times show that the total amount of snow in the Northern Hemisphere has declined in the spring period and that the melting of the snow has started earlier in the same period.
Characterization of rare events in the microcosmos with the Ti: Sa systems now used in attosecond laboratories
requires observation times of hours or even days, assuming they can be captured at all.
For instance, one study analyzed by Woith and colleagues found that toads were behaving «abnormally» for half of the
total observation time recorded in the study — both before and after the earthquake.
The Solar Physics group at UIB has access to computer clusters and to the solar telescopes in the Canary Islands observatories through the
Spanish observation time.
After notifying the over 1100 astronomers who were
granted observation time with ALMA, a process that had taken nearly five months is finally ending.
Correcting for these
differing observation times can be difficult, as different parts of the world will have very different day / night temperature cycles.
