Alternatives: "a method of assessment" or "a tool for evaluation".
This week, the government announced it would abolish an elected council of Aborigines, the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission, which was established in the 1980's as a means of self-determination for indigenous people.
Used with galactic-rotation formulas, the radial velocities provide another means of distance determination.

The results also indicated that the optimal ANN model forecast the ITE accurately, with a mean root mean square error (RMSE) of just 1.933% and a mean coefficient of determination (CD) of 0.949.
Tsa1p levels were quantified by the means of determination of their relative abundance relative to the expression of triosephosphate isomerase (Tpi1p).
The curves were all linear with a mean coefficient of determination of 0.9996, see Table 2.
Using testing and validation data sets to compare the ANN model with the two-point method shows that the two-point method had a mean coefficient of determination (R2) value that was about 3.6% less accurate than that from the ANN model.
All analyses show strong correlations with each other, and to body mass (that is, size) as indicated by a mean coefficient of determination of 0.9446 ± 0.0093 for the clade comparisons, and 0.914 ± 0.014 for comparisons between size classes.
Integration of the personal nephelometric data from each 24-hr monitoring period provided a single average concentration, which in turn was compared with the filter-based monitoring, resulting in a mean coefficient of determination of R = 0.80 (range, 0.75 0.85) over the three DEARS monitoring periods (seasons 4 6) reported here.
