«The systems are tuned in such a way that at the time of measurement, our system is at the maxima or minima — the points where the effects of noise are low in general and much lower if the systems are coupled.

The fall of 2015 could be the last time the reading dipped below that mark at Mauna Loa — which has become a kind of global bellwether as the first place where CO2 concentrations were actively monitored — and, perhaps, at the 12 other sites where Keeling's program now makes the same measurements from the Arctic to the Antarctic.

Dr. Lambert: In perhaps a generation, the field of genetics will advance to a place where we will be able to perform real - time measurement of changing biomarkers in the human body, including genes expressed and the microbiome, and have early warning signals for disease detection, prevention and intervention.

That's the conclusion of a new study that used measurements of an array of human pressures on the ocean — from acidification to overfishing — to make a map of where those factors combined into stressed - out hotspots, as well as how the combinations of stressors had changed over time.

This is the time where alternative options of self - measurement come in handy.

New York Times best - selling author Daniel Buettner, who is known for his study of Blue Zones (areas of the world where people live longer, better lives) teamed up with National Geographic and Gallup Polls to create a measurement tool that reveals America's happiest cities.

objectives include: Year 6 objectives • solve problems involving the calculation and conversion of units of measure, using decimal notation up to 3 decimal places where appropriate • use, read, write and convert between standard units, converting measurements of length, mass, volume and time from a smaller unit of measure to a larger unit, and vice versa, using decimal notation to up to 3 decimal places • convert between miles and kilometres • recognise that shapes with the same areas can have different perimeters and vice versa • recognise when it is possible to use formulae for area and volume of shapes • calculate the area of parallelograms and triangles • calculate, estimate and compare volume of cubes and cuboids using standard units, including cubic centimetres (cm ³) and cubic metres (m ³), and extending to other units [for example, mm ³ and km ³] • express missing number problems algebraically • find pairs of numbers that satisfy an equation with 2 unknowns • enumerate possibilities of combinations of 2 variables • draw 2 - D shapes using given dimensions and angles • recognise, describe and build simple 3 - D shapes, including making nets • compare and classify geometric shapes based on their properties and sizes and find unknown angles in any triangles, quadrilaterals, and regular polygons • illustrate and name parts of circles, including radius, diameter and circumference and know that the diameter is twice the radius • recognise angles where they meet at a point, are on a straight line, or are vertically opposite, and find missing angles • describe positions on the full coordinate grid (all 4 quadrants) • draw and translate simple shapes on the coordinate plane, and reflect them in the axes • interpret and construct pie charts and line graphs and use these to solve problems • calculate and interpret the mean as an average • read, write, order and compare numbers up to 10,000,000 and determine the value of each digit • round any whole number to a required degree of accuracy and more!

It lets schools follow students» progress closely, and it allows for measurement of how much students learn and grow over time, not just where they are in a single moment.

If you can actually point to a place where I denied that measurements of recorded maximum temperatures show increases over time in certain locations, I would be surprised.

For instance, taking one of the two examples mentioned above, the radiation code can be tested against field measurements at specific times and places where the composition of the atmosphere is known alongside a line - by - line code.

«This is ongoing research and bears watching as other factors as still under investigation, such as changes in the time - of - day readings were taken, but at this point it helps explain why the surface measurements appear to be warming more than the deep atmosphere (where the greenhouse effect should appear.)»

Smaller - scale deployments have occurred at a variety of locations, particularly such well - studied sites as the University of Hawai`i at Mānoa's Hawaii Ocean Time - series (HOT) station, where long biogeochemical records from floats (Figure 1) can be calibrated against shipboard measurements.

Then, after 1960 where the blanket of temp readings expanded, became more dense and more synchronized to Time of Day for the measurements (i.e., became more accurate), the reality was finally expose — tree rings DO NOT correlate to temperature at all but are driven more by other local factors (like days above freezing and not the amount of delta above freezing, freezing or some other minimal temp being a point where growth occurs).

Working from an ancient formula on optimal dam design he devised the equation: log (R / S) = K * log (N / 2) where R is the range of the time series, S is the standard deviation of year - to - year flood measurements and N is the number of years in the series.»

So, the next step will be to revisit the SST bias corrections and refine them, making use of the new information uncovered concerning national measurement practices and new analysis techniques that allow for more accurate corrections in areas and at times where there are few data.

TSI is directly correlated with sunspot numbers, and the long and deep solar minimum we just came through where the sun was blank for long periods of time would necessarily mean that TSI was also lower for an extended period of time This is not what the measurements show.

Where the nature of the study precludes direct replication by experiment, as in the case of time - dependent field measurements, it is important that the requirements include access to all the original raw data and its provenance, together with the criteria used for, and effects of, any subsequent selections, omissions or adjustments.

I have been a student of the history of physics for some time, and I can think of no other instance in the whole history of physics where it was never possible to make a measurement of the value of something, yet all the appropiate scientific organizations have declared that we can attribute a value of this number that is beyond dispute.

The problem is not with taking surface temperature measurements; it's that so many of those thermometers are in heavily populated areas where the population has been increasing for a long time, creating heat islands.

While that still is sparse for the full oceans (especially the South Pacific) surface, all repeated measurements of the same places over time show an increase in DIC, and as far as measured, a decrease in pH. That includes the main upwelling areas where the deep ocean volcano releases should be measurable first.

In no way is this comparable to the manufacture of data where no measurements have been taken or the substitution of one measured variable (daily mean land air temperature) with another (instantaneous SST observations) whose sampling method varies, is exceedingly uneven geographically, and no credible, alias - free time - series can be obtained.

One solution is to compare the measurements with the jump to measurements at nearby stations where the time of observation stayed the same.

So, there has to be a combined approach where the lab experiments like CLOUD improve the scientific understanding, but at the same time the observational measurements sharpen the knowledge of what's in the atmosphere.

I do wonder though about the thought processes of some of the more alarmist Climate Scientists — if they were teaching a class and one of their undergraduate students pulled some of the tricks they do in journal articles («a post hoc rationalisation that the «missing heat» is in the one part of the system where there are no reliable measurements, truncation of data part way through a time series to only show the bits that agree with your hypothesis and not the later data that call it into doubt), the student would be failed

Even in Taylor's efficient dystopia, where the physical motions of line workers were timed to the millisecond, time measurement was a management technique, not a pricing model.

An example of how a regulation gives the law flexibility is where a statute establishes monetary amounts or measurements, such as fines or limits that might change over time.

For instance at a time when anglers where sticking rigidly to the mantra of 3 to 5 milliliters of flavour, plus 1 to 2 milliliters of intense sweetener to a pound of base mix or more, as measured by 4 large eggs or 6 medium eggs as a basis of measurement, I tried other approaches and reaped big rewards against much more experienced anglers.
