    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mollweide_projection

    Mollweide projection of the world The Mollweide projection with Tissot's indicatrix of deformation. The Mollweide projection is an equal-area, pseudocylindrical map projection generally used for maps of the world or celestial sphere.

  3. Ellipsis (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis_(linguistics)

    In linguistics, ellipsis (from Ancient Greek ἔλλειψις (élleipsis) 'omission') or an elliptical construction is the omission from a clause of one or more words that are nevertheless understood in the context of the remaining elements. There are numerous distinct types of ellipsis acknowledged in theoretical syntax.

  4. Elliptical distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical_distribution

    In probability and statistics, an elliptical distribution is any member of a broad family of probability distributions that generalize the multivariate normal distribution. Intuitively, in the simplified two and three dimensional case, the joint distribution forms an ellipse and an ellipsoid , respectively, in iso-density plots.

    Distribution of Gleysols. A gleysol or gley soil is a hydric soil that unless drained is saturated with groundwater for long enough to develop a characteristic gleyic colour pattern.

  6. Elliptic surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_surface

    The product of any elliptic curve with any curve is an elliptic surface (with no singular fibers). All surfaces of Kodaira dimension 1 are elliptic surfaces.; Every complex Enriques surface is elliptic, and has an elliptic fibration over the projective line.

    Despite their prevalence, there is a lack of consensus among scholars regarding their construction date. Various theories have been proposed, with Zvi Ron suggesting that their origins date back to ancient times, Finkelstein proposing the Middle Bronze Age , and Feig, Stager, and Harel suggesting the Iron Age .

    Regenerative agriculture is a conservation and rehabilitation approach to food and farming systems. It focuses on topsoil regeneration, increasing biodiversity, [1] improving the water cycle, [2] enhancing ecosystem services, supporting biosequestration, [3] increasing resilience to climate change, and strengthening the health and vitality of farm soil.
