The meridian 112° west of Greenwich is a line of longitude that extends from the North Pole across the Arctic Ocean, North America, the Pacific Ocean, the Southern Ocean, and Antarctica to the South Pole. The 112th meridian west forms a great circle with the 68th meridian east.
Geodetic latitude and geocentric latitude have different definitions. Geodetic latitude is defined as the angle between the equatorial plane and the surface normal at a point on the ellipsoid, whereas geocentric latitude is defined as the angle between the equatorial plane and a radial line connecting the centre of the ellipsoid to a point on the surface (see figure).
The 180th meridian or antimeridian [1] is the meridian 180° both east and west of the prime meridian in a geographical coordinate system. The longitude at this line can be given as either east or west. On Earth, the prime and 180th meridians form a great ellipse that divides the planet into the Western and Eastern Hemispheres.
The Cunningham technique was originally published in 2003 and is an anatomically based method of shoulder reduction that utilizes positioning (analgesic position), voluntary scapular retraction, and bicipital massage. [7] If performed correctly most patients do not require analgesia for the performance of this technique.
The mountains form a U-shape, with the open side of the letter "U" pointed north. Far northern latitude: At roughly 63 degrees north latitude, there's only about 3 hours of sunshine around the ...
Parts of all states in the Lower 48 woke up to subfreezing temperatures Tuesday due to a weather pattern that will keep arctic air in place across the eastern half of the country at least until ...
Meridians run between the North and South poles. In geography and geodesy, a meridian is the locus connecting points of equal longitude, which is the angle (in degrees or other units) east or west of a given prime meridian (currently, the IERS Reference Meridian). [1] In other words, it is a coordinate line for longitudes, a line of longitude.
A U.S. Justice Department report two years ago found horrific conditions at two state-run programs in north Florida. At the Dozier School for Boys – the same jail that landed the state in federal court in the 1980s – investigators found that the Department of Juvenile Justice hired staff members who were abusive and often failed to document ...
