  2. Height above mean sea level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Height_above_mean_sea_level

    FASL – feet above sea level [6] MAMSL – metres above mean sea level [5] MASL – metres above sea level [5] [6] MSL – mean sea level [7] For elevations or altitudes, often just the abbreviation MSL is used, e.g., Mount Everest (8849 m MSL), or the reference to sea level is omitted completely, e.g., Mount Everest (8849 m).

  3. 80-meter band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/80-meter_band

    The 80 meter or 3.5 MHz band is a span of radio frequencies allocated for amateur use, from 3.5–4.0 MHz in North and South America (IARU and ITU Region 2); generally 3.5–3.8 MHz in Europe, Africa, and northern Asia (Region 1); and 3.5–3.9 MHz in south and east Asia and the eastern Pacific (Region 3). [a] The upper portion of the band ...

  4. Sea level rise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_level_rise

    With high emissions it would instead accelerate further, and could rise by 1.0 m (3 + 1 ⁄ 3 ft) or even 1.6 m (5 + 1 ⁄ 3 ft) by 2100. [5] [3]: 1302 In the long run, sea level rise would amount to 2–3 m (7–10 ft) over the next 2000 years if warming stays to its current 1.5 °C (2.7 °F) over the pre-industrial past. It would be 19–22 ...

  5. List of conversion factors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_conversion_factors

    Sv. ≡ 1 J/kg [44] = 1 Sv = 1 J/kg = 1 m 2 ⋅s 2. Although the definitions for sievert (Sv) and gray (Gy) would seem to indicate that they measure the same quantities, this is not the case. The effect of receiving a certain dose of radiation (given as Gy) is variable and depends on many factors, thus a new unit was needed to denote the ...

  6. Astronomical unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomical_unit

    The astronomical unit (symbol: au[1][2][3][4] or AU) is a unit of length defined to be exactly equal to 149,597,870,700 m. [5] Historically, the astronomical unit was conceived as the average Earth-Sun distance (the average of Earth's aphelion and perihelion), before its modern redefinition in 2012. The astronomical unit is used primarily for ...

  7. Metre per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metre_per_second

    3.2808. The metre per second is the unit of both speed (a scalar quantity) and velocity (a vector quantity, which has direction and magnitude) in the International System of Units (SI), equal to the speed of a body covering a distance of one metre in a time of one second. According to the definition of metre, [1] 1 m/s is exactly of the speed ...

  8. Standard gravity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_gravity

    Standard gravity. The standard acceleration of gravity or standard acceleration of free fall, often called simply standard gravity and denoted by ɡ0 or ɡn, is the nominal gravitational acceleration of an object in a vacuum near the surface of the Earth. It is a constant defined by standard as 9.806 65 m/s 2 (about 32.174 05 ft/s 2).
