Meteorology would never entirely shed these religious undertones; even the eminently dry and secular field of contract law continues to call an unexpected weather event an "act of God".
In the secular field the most profound influence on Scandinavian was that exerted by Middle Low German because of the commercial dominance of the Hanseatic League and the political influence of the North German states on the royal houses of Denmark and Sweden between 1250 and 1450.
Those powerful and opposite poles, church and opera, monopolized choral writing for many years, and apart from isolated works of an occasional nature there is little in the truly secular field until Beethoven's Choral Fantasia (1808), an unusual work in nine movements, the first seven of which are a set of variations for piano and orchestra.
Although most Gothic architecture in Denmark is to be found in churches and monasteries, there are examples in the secular field too.
We obtained the annual secular variation field values by calculating the change between the main field polynomial models of January and December (Figs. 2, 3 and 4).
Therefore, a 5th degree polynomial was the best choice for main field modelling, while a 2nd degree polynomial was best suited to derive secular variation field models.
The derivation of an annual secular variation field model for each component in order to monitor the evolution of the secular variation contour lines.
The derivation of annual secular variation field models for the interval 2001 2005 was done by focusing on January and December months in each year according to method (a).
In the present analysis of satellite data, 2 methods were used: (a) The derivation of an annual secular variation field model for each component in order to monitor the evolution of the secular variation contour lines.
The test data set contains contributions from the core field and secular variation (SV), lithospheric field, and primary and secondary ionospheric and magnetospheric fields.
