Even if you think you already know your basic measurements, re-measure yourself for accuracy.
Although the concept of weights and measures today includes such factors as temperature, luminosity, pressure, and electric current, it once consisted of only four basic measurements: mass (weight), distance or length, area, and volume (liquid or grain measure).
Even the basic measurements of the proposed temple are a source of contention.
(The report's basic measurements are divided into two overall categories: environmental health and ecosystem vitality).
But the two researchers suspected that there might be more to it than that, so they dug a little deeper.First, they gathered some basic measurements.
There is no reason to think that Wilkins, had he been given charge of these resources, would not have obtained comparably crisp X-ray photographs or, at least, some that were good enough to yield the few basic measurements that Watson and Crick needed.
Over all, many experts conclude, advanced climate research in the United States is fragmented among an alphabet soup of agencies, strained by inadequate computing power and starved for the basic measurements of real-world conditions that are needed to improve simulations.
The basic weight, the shi, or dan, was fixed at about 60 kg (132 pounds); the two basic measurements, the zhi and the zhang, were set at about 25 cm (9.8 inches) and 3 metres (9.8 feet), respectively.
There is no reason to think that Wilkins, had he been given charge of these resources, would not have obtained comparably crisp X-ray photographs — or, at least, some that were good enough to yield the few basic measurements that Watson and Crick needed.
Basin shape may be indexed by simple dimensionless ratios of the basic measurements area, perimeter and length (Singh 1998).
Even basic measurements of these DNP parameters require versatile instrumentation at high magnetic fields not commercially available to date.
