  2. Day for night - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_for_night

    When shooting day for night, the scene is typically underexposed in-camera or darkened during post-production, with a blue tint added. Additional effects are often used to heighten the impression of night. As the light sensitivity of film and video cameras has improved, shooting day for night has become less common in recent years.

  3. Time dilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation

    A clock used to time a full rotation of the Earth will measure the day to be approximately an extra 10 ns/day longer for every km of altitude above the reference geoid." [ 35 ] Travel to regions of space where extreme gravitational time dilation is taking place, such as near (but not beyond the event horizon of) a black hole , could yield time ...

    Afternoon analemma photo taken in 1998–99 in Murray Hill, New Jersey, U.S., by Jack Fishburn.The Bell Laboratories building is in the foreground. In astronomy, an analemma (/ ˌ æ n ə ˈ l ɛ m ə /; from Ancient Greek ἀνάλημμα (analēmma) 'support') [a] is a diagram showing the position of the Sun in the sky as seen from a fixed location on Earth at the same mean solar time over ...

  5. Diurnal cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diurnal_cycle

    Earth's rotation relative to the Sun causes the 24-hour day/night cycle. A diurnal cycle (or diel cycle) is any pattern that recurs every 24 hours as a result of one full rotation of the planet Earth around its axis. [1] Earth's rotation causes surface temperature fluctuations throughout the day and night, as well as weather changes throughout ...

  6. Evaporating cloud - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporating_Cloud

    Clouds are "built" by filling in the appropriate boxes with statements about the situation. Both the wording of the statements and the sequence of filling the boxes can be important. Below is a guide to the recommended sequence and questions for building Day-to-day Conflict or Inner Dilemma clouds. [8]: 679, 689

  7. Dual circadian oscillator model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_circadian_oscillator...

    Diagram of day length affecting the phase relation between the two oscillators E and M and an actogram of a diurnal animal’s activity. Less light (short day) results in overlap of the two oscillators’ outputs, with a small phase difference, and thus, one bout of activity.

  8. Day and Night (cellular automaton) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_and_Night_(cellular...

    Day and Night is a cellular automaton rule in the same family as Game of Life. It is defined by rule notation B3678/S34678, meaning that a dead cell becomes live (is born) if it has 3, 6, 7, or 8 live neighbors, and a live cell remains alive (survives) if it has 3, 4, 6, 7, or 8 live neighbors, out of the eight neighbors in the Moore neighborhood .

  9. Diel vertical migration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diel_vertical_migration

    For example, the occurrence of midnight sun in the Arctic induces changes to planktonic life that would normally perform DVM with a 24-hour night and day cycle. In the summers of the Arctic the Earth's north pole is directed toward the sun creating longer days and at the high latitude continuous day light for more than 24-hours. [10]
