Sentences with phrase «orbits of satellites»

So the time the temperature is measured (ie when the satellite is above a particular location) is critical and orbits of satellites gradually decay.

Some apparent problems with the predictions of climate models, for example, have actually turned out to be due to problems with real - world data caused by the failure to correct for factors such as the gradual changes in orbits of satellites.

(That's a little bit of an exaggeration, because it's really skinny little stripes where there orbit of the satellite is, so it's not a full map.)

The whole thing could easily fit below the orbits of satellites as a nice, neat, and simple universe.

These cause anomalies in the field strength that extend into the Hill sphere and perturb the orbits of any satellites.

By imitating the orbits of satellites, researchers have imagined a choreographic crystal whose symmetry is based on periodic motions, not fixed positions

The US already operates a network of 90 radio receivers, which are used in conjunction with the 24 GPS satellites to determine the orbits of satellites, monitor geological fault lines, and observe movement in the plates on the Earth's surface.

Third, the information we have about the orbits of the satellite candidates is consistent with their orbits being in the same plane as Charon's, and also nearly circular.

«Secondly, the orbit of the satellite is so bizarre that we had to develop a complex new algorithm to be able to pin it down and understand its stability over time.»

After correcting for problems caused by the decaying orbit of satellites, as well as other factors, they have produced a new record showing 36 % faster warming since 1979 and nearly 140 % faster (i.e. 2.4 times larger) warming since 1998.

The orbits of the satellites decay, resulting in changes to the altitude from which the measurements are taken, as well as changes to the time of day that they are above a particular spot on the Earth.

Missions may have different orbital characteristics, and slight changes in the orbits of satellites over time have been shown to introduce inconsistencies in the data.

For instance, the orbit of satellites gradually slows, which has to be taken into account because it affects the time of day at which temperature recording are taken.
