The hotbed effect (hothouse effect) in the planets atmosphere is the inside atmosphere layers heating (of the Earth, Venus etc.), due to the transparent planet atmosphere for the main part of solar radiation (in optical range). In the atmosphere of the Earth this radiation is absorbed by the molecules of H2O, C02, O3 and others. ... As a result of human activities the CO2 content is increasing (and the other gases, absorbing in infrared range). ...

... Telescopes, instruments and cameras are keenly affected by local weather and atmospheric conditions. The decision to open any telescope or have access to any instrument or camera is at the sole discretion of the on-duty observing specialist(s) at the time of your requested access. ... Specific parameters exist for access to APO telescopes, instruments, or cameras which protect our highly-sophisticated and sensitive equipment and provide safe work conditions for staff and visitors. ...

... This method is based on putting space modules, vehicles and EVA-suit donned cosmonauts in the swimming pool under conditions of neutral buoyancy, indifferent equilibrium and unsupported state. ... You can also dive into the swimming pool with the SCUBA equipment in order to examine the mock-ups of space stations and vehicles and pass a course of rehabilitation in a hyperbaric oxygenation complex. ...

... Once the observations are made, we must remove the instrumental signature, including atmospheric effects, as fully as possible. ... The atmospheric part can be removed quite accurately, but some remaining instrumental effects, due to a mismatch between the instrumental and standard passbands, cannot be completely removed, because some information is missing (especially in the conventional photometric systems). ...

spaceweb@oulu.fi - last update: 20 November 1998, 1440 UT (RR) . The 'space weather' have been coined to point out that many of the phenomena studied in space physics have also important practical consequences (e.g., Davenport, 1996). In addition to the geomagnetic activity , also changes in the atmosphere , or even comets and man-made debris in space, can be of importance. ... The other serious consequence of bad space weather is the possibility of damage to Earth orbiting satellites. ...

Next: Conclusions Up: Selection Effects Previous: Inconsistent (or Inconsistently Applied) . Another possible bias, present in this as well as all other surveys which use spectral indices based upon nonsimultaneous data in their selection process, is due to variability. ... In order to minimize the effect of non-simultaneous radio survey data upon our samples, we decided to expand the common definition of flat-spectrum radio sources to extend to (instead of 0.5). ...
