A diver viewed from below who appears inside of Snell's window. Snell's window (also called Snell's circle [1] or optical man-hole [2]) is a phenomenon by which an underwater viewer sees everything above the surface through a cone of light of width of about 96 degrees. [3]
The windows are themselves dependent upon clouds, water vapor, trace greenhouse gases, and other components of the atmosphere. [8] Out of an average 340 watts per square meter (W/m 2) of solar irradiance at the top of the atmosphere, about 200 W/m 2 reaches the surface via windows, mostly
Atmospheric transmission of radiation Water vapor window with micro-windows visible. Water vapor windows are wavelengths of infrared light that have little absorption by water vapor in Earth's atmosphere. Because of this weak absorption, these wavelengths are allowed to reach the Earth's surface barring effects from other atmospheric components.
The following week, Primo on the Water is hosting a weekend-long St. Patrick's Day celebration March 15-17 — with a lineup of live entertainment and menu of small bites — so their Primo's ...
Windows on the World executive chef Michael Lomonaco and owner-operator David Emil were among the founders of that fund. On January 4, 2006, a number of former Windows on the World staff opened Colors , a co-operative restaurant in Manhattan that serves as a tribute to their colleagues and whose menu reflects the diversity of the former Windows ...
The water window is a region of the electromagnetic spectrum in which water is transparent [clarification needed] to soft x-rays. The window extends from the K- absorption edge of carbon at 282 eV (68 PHz, 4.40 nm wavelength) to the K-edge of oxygen at 533 eV (129 PHz, 2.33 nm wavelength).
As the main part of the 'window' spectrum, a clear electromagnetic spectral transmission 'window' can be seen between 8 and 14 μm. A fragmented part of the 'window' spectrum (one might say a louvred part of the 'window') can also be seen in the visible to mid-wavelength infrared between 0.2 and 5.5 μm.
The restaurant space was first opened as the Grand Central Terminal Restaurant. Although Grand Central Terminal opened on February 2, 1913, its opening was celebrated one day prior, February 1, with a dinner at the restaurant, arranged for Warren and Wetmore along with 100 guests.
