We never see her again, but her calibration rings through the movie, most enduringly — and, it must be said, unendurably — in the person of Mary, who clearly despises herself, and who lunges at any prospect of companionship, however faint.
Under optimum condition, the method has wide linear calibration rang (0.5 1700 ng mL−1) with reasonable detection limit (0.13 ng mL−1) and R2 = 0.9971.
Tree-ring analyses provided good calibration back to about 12,500 years ago, but the radiocarbon calibration curve that was extended back to about 26,000 years ago on the basis of studies of coral and foraminifera in marine sediment was less certain.
This paper describes an improved hydrometer calibration method using a ring type sinker as a reference standard mass.
The consensus favored a post that would cast shadows across a "calibration target" of gray rings — and then Bill Nye piped up.
Similarly obsessed, Bill Nye finally persuaded his Cornell colleagues that sundials surrounded by gray rings would not only make photometric calibration possible but also mark the time, and "MarsDials" were built into the two Mars Exploration Rovers, the first of which, Spirit, will land on the Red Planet on January 3rd.
The spectra presented in Figure 5 show an example set of calibration standards for the ring-stage parasites that was used to build the PLS regression model.
Relative CH LIF signals are calibrated using cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS), while NO LIF calibration is performed in the burned gases of NO seeded flames.
Calibration is performed by cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) and indicates a very weak soot volume fraction (0.066 ppb at 21.33 kPa and 0.8 ppb at 26.66 kPa in the burnt gases).
For measured radiocarbon ages back to 11 000 BP calibration is made with measurements from tree-ring data, while older dates are calibrated by atmospheric C estimated from coral (Reimer et al., 2004).
