According to the Big Bang model, the radiation from the sky we measure today comes from a spherical surface called the surface of last scattering .

Snow accumulation on the upper surface and melting from the lower surface are also important to the mass balance of an ice shelf.

It generally involves making marks on a surface by applying pressure from a tool, or moving a tool across a surface.

Over a longer period, sunlight would have been blocked from reaching the surface of the earth by the dust particles in the atmosphere, cooling the surface dramatically.

So as you move vertically away from this surface, the heat falls off.

Carbon from the oil can diffuse into the steel, making the surface very hard.

Parts and components of liquid propellant surface to air missiles can also be reused in a surface to surface role, like the liquid propellant engines of the SA 2 missiles used in the Samoud 2 surface to surface missiles.

resulting from surface treatment of metals and plastics (Y17) (decision VII 15)

This makes the Venusian surface hotter than Mercury's, which has a minimum surface temperature of and maximum surface temperature of , even though Venus is nearly twice Mercury's distance from the Sun and thus receives only 25 of Mercury's solar irradiance.

Geoid To extend this definition far from the sea means comparing the local height of the mean sea surface with a level reference surface, or datum, called the geoid.

And we try to guess what they're doing from their behavior on the surface.

He sent out a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from the surface of the ground,

Down you go. There's no connection to the surface apart from a pretty funky radio.

This makes the surface signals strong enough to measure, and distinguishes them from bulk signals.

However, during the spring flood, there is a constant surface current from north to south.

but a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole surface of the ground.

These buckets act as electrodes to conduct the current from the skin's surface to the filament.

Similar to surface tension, adsorption is a consequence of surface energy.

Today, the largest (surface) combat ships are corvettes which combine surface warfare, anti submarine warfare and mine clearance functions with a better endurance and seaworthiness than the budget fleet from the 1980s.

He found that cathode rays were emitted perpendicularly from a metal surface, and carried energy.

Due to its high surface area and porous structure, drugs can be adsorbed from supercritical .

Historically, standard vertical separation was 1,000 feet from the surface to FL290, and 2,000 feet above FL290.

The maria cover about 16 percent of the lunar surface, mostly on the near side visible from Earth.

Six thousand kilometers below the surface, the planet s core is as hot as the surface of the sun.

The energy of the laser heats the surface of the pellet into a plasma, which explodes off the surface.

The surface covered by one eruption can vary from around 200,000 km² (Karoo) to 1,500,000 km² (Siberian Traps).

So Yahweh scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.

The van der Waals forces, which are strongest from 1 nm to 10 nm above the surface, or any other long range force that extends above the surface acts to decrease the resonance frequency of the cantilever.

The DHTML Editing Control is being removed from IE7 for Windows Vista to reduce surface area for security attacks.

Robotic spacecraft are currently returning information from the outer regions of the solar system and roving the surface of Mars.

Well, the surface of the spray coating is actually filled with nanoparticles that form a very rough and craggly surface.

When surface temperature drops, eventually reaching the dew point, atmospheric water vapor condenses to form small droplets on the surface.

Shallow ponds often have a continuous temperature gradient from warmer waters at the surface to cooler waters at the bottom.

Additionally, the integration of experimental products, such as ocean surface winds from scatterometer instruments and moisture or rainfall from microwave instruments, has improved such forecasts.

This means that earthrises are visible near the edge of the Earth observable surface of the Moon (about 20 of the surface).

Finally, surface temperature is used.

The one on the right comes from a yellow surface, in shadow, oriented facing the left, viewed through a pinkish medium.

However, the exosphere can extend from 500 up to 1,000 km above the surface, where it interacts with the planet's magnetosphere.

Preparation of technical guidelines on the environmentally sound management of wastes resulting from surface treatment of metals and plastics (Y17)

And then for the damaged arthritis on the surface, we did a stem cell paste graft, which we designed in 1991, to regrow that articular cartilage surface and give it back a smooth surface there.

Water flows on the surface and underground.

Beneath the surface are many threatening cracks.
