This template calls {} to generate two table cells for elevation in metres and feet. The template accepts two unnamed parameters, the elevation and either "m" to indicate that the specified elevation is in metres or "ft" for elevation in feet. The unit is optional and defaults to "m" if not given. The values are right aligned by default.
Gravity is computed on the ellipsoid surface using the International Gravity Formula. For studies of subsurface structure, the free-air anomaly is further adjusted by a correction for the mass below the measurement point and above the reference of mean sea level or a local datum elevation. [3] This defines the Bouguer anomaly.
Procalcitonin (PCT) is a peptide precursor of the hormone calcitonin, the latter being involved with calcium homeostasis.It arises once preprocalcitonin is cleaved by endopeptidase. [1]
The gravity anomaly at a location on the Earth's surface is the difference between the observed value of gravity and the value predicted by a theoretical model. If the Earth were an ideal oblate spheroid of uniform density, then the gravity measured at every point on its surface would be given precisely by a simple algebraic expression.
DTED (or Digital Terrain Elevation Data) is a standard of digital datasets which consists of a matrix of terrain elevation values, i.e., a Digital Elevation Model.This standard was originally developed in the 1970s to support aircraft radar simulation and prediction.
In astronavigation, sight reduction is the process of deriving from a sight (in celestial navigation usually obtained using a sextant) the information needed for establishing a line of position, generally by intercept method.
QNE is an aeronautical code Q code. The term refers to the indicated altitude at the landing runway threshold when 1013.25 m b {\displaystyle 1013.25~\mathrm {mb} } or 29.92 i n H g {\displaystyle 29.92~\mathrm {inHg} } is set in the altimeter's Kollsman window.
