The angular resolution, or ability of a radio telescope to distinguish fine detail in the sky, depends on the wavelength of observations divided by the size of the instrument.
The general classification of volcanic tephra by grain size (Le Bas and Streckeisen, 1991) distinguishes fine ash (<1/16 mm), coarse ash (1/16 mm to 2 mm), lapilli (2 mm to 64 mm) and volcanic bombs (>64 mm).
In recent years, substantial progress has been made to improve the ability of nanopores to distinguish fine macromolecular features.
Because mammographic classification schemes are unable to distinguish fine changes that do not cause a change in category, the study directly measured the changes in mammographic densities.
For example, MRI has recently been used to visualize the internal dynamics of circulation, respiration, and digestion in tobacco hornworm pupae, but the temporal resolution (~300 ms) and spatial resolution (~150 μm, laterally) of MRI are insufficient to distinguish fine kinematic details of motion [ 1].
They suspect that this explains the effect: Merkel cells are spaced more densely in smaller hands, giving those hands the ability to distinguish finer textures.
Chemical fixation is a critical step in the analysis of the ultrastructure of seaweeds because the wrong approach can compromise the ability to distinguish fine-scale cellular composition.
A larger number of modules would be able to distinguish finer patterns, but is also more prone to overfitting, to separating co-regulated genes into separate modules, and to inferring "transitions" between modules that are erroneous, thus over estimating divergence.
Our previous simulations (Table I and supplementary Table I) suggest that application of MDS to IBS metrics calculated from 100,000 uncorrelated SNPs can distinguish fine-scale population structure, which is not apparent when only 10,000 SNPs are used.
Cypriot craftsmen were distinguished for fine jewelry, ivory carving, and bronze figures.
