The phrase "a precise means" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to a specific method or way of achieving something accurately.
Example: "To ensure the experiment's success, we need a precise means of measuring the temperature."
Alternatives: "an exact method" or "a specific way".
This layer gives scientists a precise means of dating for this period and, combined with the new radiocarbon dating, shows there seem to be no Neanderthal sites anywhere in Europe 39,000 years ago, a date 10,000 years earlier than previous estimates.
A precise means for determining the direction of a target is the monopulse method in which information about the angle of a target is obtained by comparing the amplitudes of signals received from two or more simultaneous receiving beams, each slightly offset (squinted) from the antenna's central axis.
My serious move towards the paradigmatic description of context occurred in search of precision and accuracy: if the aim of the activity is the classification of register, and the success of that enterprise depends on achieving a precise means of identifying the correlates underlying that variation, then to me it was clear that the system based approach was required.
It is important to note here that our methodology is a precise means of measuring and comparing simulation time series and that it has no obvious inherent prejudice with respect to the type of model or means of simulation.
Our notion of flux provides a precise means for monitoring the flow between reactions, which is different from the flow between species as it is the case in the deterministic setting.
However, 18S rRNA expression is monitored primarily to double check for substantial anomalies in mRNA quantification when positive results are found, rather than as a precise means of normalization for results which appear consistent.
Intermediate markers of stroke (eg, atherosclerosis or intima-media thickness) or risk factors (hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes) might also be under tight genetic control and could be a more precise means of detecting an association rather than the related disease outcome.
It provides a more precise means of evaluating responses to constraints (nonfunctional requirements) concerning the IS, notably by estimating hardware and network sizing needs or by setting up server or storage redundancy.
While exploratory, results such as these might be part of future risk prediction models across diagnoses - including characteristics not collected in a clinical trial setting, potential biomarkers, and genetic markers - that might lead to a more precise means of picking treatments and predicting response for our patients.
Because invoked attitude figures so prominently in the analysis of textual identity, the paper proposes an amended version of what has been proposed by Martin and White (2005: 67) in the form of a set of overlapping 'categories' designed to fill gaps in the interpretive paradigm, and to call for a more precise means of tracking and identifying how attitude is invoked in texts.
Results show that if age is not available, then the combination of data derived from satellite imagery and environmental variables provides a more precise means of estimating the 300 Index (R 2 = 0.65 and RMSE = 3.21 m3 ha−1 year−1 for the non-parametric model).
