English

Subject field(s)
  • Stock Exchange
DEF

A technical momentum indicator that compares the magnitude of recent gains to recent losses in an attempt to determine overbought and oversold conditions of an asset.

CONT

The indicator [RSI] is plotted between a range of zero to 100 where 100 is the highest overbought condition and zero is the highest oversold condition. The RSI helps to measure the strength of a security's recent up moves compared to the strength of its recent down moves. ... In the RSI, the overbought line is typically set at 70 and when the RSI is above this level the security is considered to be overbought. The security is seen as oversold when the RSI is below 30.

DEF

The radiation [ultraviolet, visible and infrared] from the sun received by a surface, especially the earth's surface.

CONT

Insolation is the incoming solar radiation that reaches a planet and its atmosphere. In construction, ... it [is] one of "the most important climate variables for human comfort and building energy efficiency".

OBS

Incoming Solar Radiation -- Insolation. Some is : scattered, absorbed, reflected from [Earth's] surface.

OBS

"insolation" is an acronym for INcoming SOLar radiATION. Insolation is the energy that powers weather phenomena.

OBS

insolation: [Some authors indicate that] this term has been generally replaced by "solar irradiance" because of the confusion of the word with insulation.

OBS

Do not confuse with "insulation".

Subject field(s)
  • Defence Planning and Military Doctrine
  • Military Finances
  • Special-Language Phraseology
CONT

The squeeze created by limited financial resources on the one hand and spiraling costs on the other spawned other proposals for strengthening NATO’s conventional forces at little or no additional expense, which became collectively known as rationalization, standardization, and interoperability (RSI). These proposals, which included a wide range of possible measures, all involved improving the coordination of national defense programs in the service of overall alliance military requirements through greater cooperation and long term planning. RSI seemed to have tremendous potential benefits.

Subject field(s)
  • Molecular Biology

  • Crop Protection
  • Organic Farming
CONT

... systemic resistance [is] induced by non-pathogenic, rhizosphere-colonizing bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas. ... SA [salicylic acid] is not involved in the expression of systemic resistance induced by [certain] plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR)-strains. Because systemic resistance induced by these rhizobacteria appears to differ mechanistically from SAR [systemic acquired resistance], it should not be denoted as such. Instead, it has been designated ISR [induced systemic resistance]. The term ISR will also be useful in distinguishing PGRP-mediated induced systemic resistance from classic SAR.

OBS

Although the extent of induced resistance attained by SAR and ISR can be similar, ISR usually affords lesser protection than SAR.

L'acide jasmonique et l'éthylène sont aussi des modulateurs de la résistance dite systémique induite ou (RSI). Ce type de résistance est activé par la présence de rhizobactéries non pathogènes présentes dans les racines des plantes. Cette résistance requiert que les voies de signalisation de l'acide jasmonique et de l'éthylène soient intactes d'où l'idée que l'acide jasmonique et l'éthylène puissent être des modulateurs de la RSA (Pieterse et al., 1996; Pieterse et al., 1998).

Se conoce como resistencia sistémica inducida (RSI), y está mediada por la vía sensitiva del jasmonato/etileno, y no implica la expresión de proteínas PR. Patógenos bacterianos incompatibles, agentes abióticos y estrés se han utilizado por mucho tiempo para inducir resistencia contra enfermedades bacterianas.

Subject field(s)
  • Remote Sensing
DEF

The science and techniques involved in using imaging spectrometers.

CONT

Imaging spectrometry ... is the field in remote sensing where sensors acquire image data in many, narrow and contiguous wavebands. The aim is to produce on a pixel by pixel basis radiance and reflectance data, which can be used to model physical properties of the Earth surface. This data forms an addition to subsurface geophysical data.

OBS

Imaging spectroscopy has many names in the remote sensing community, including imaging spectrometry, hyperspectral, and ultraspectral imaging. Spectroscopy is the study of electromagnetic radiation. Spectrometry is derived from spectro-photometry, the measure of photons as a function of wavelength, a term used for years in astronomy. However, spectrometry is becoming a term used to indicate the measurement of non-light quantities, such as in mass spectrometry (e.g. Ball, 1995). Hyper means excessive, but no imaging spectrometer in use can hardly be considered hyper-spectral, after all, a couple of hundred channels pales in comparison to truly high resolution spectrometer with millions of channels. Ultraspectral is beyond hyperspectral, a lofty goal that has not yet been reached. ... Researchers at the USGS Spectroscopy Lab are studying and applying methods for identifying and mapping materials through spectroscopic remote sensing (called imaging spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging, imaging spectrometry, ultraspectral imaging, etc), on the Earth and throughout the solar system using laboratory, airborne and spacecraft spectrometers.

imaging spectrometry; imaging spectroscopy; hyperspectral imaging: terms officially approved by the RADARSAT-2 Terminology Approval Group (RTAG).
