OBS

The Atlantic Zone Monitoring Program (AZMP) was implemented in 1998 with the aim of increasing Fisheries and Oceans Canada’s (DFO) capacity to understand, describe, and forecast the state of the marine ecosystem and quantifying the changes in the ocean’s physical, chemical, and biological properties and the predator–prey relationships of marine resources.

OBS

The [Atlantic Zone Monitoring Program] sampling strategy is based on : seasonal and opportunistic sampling along sections to quantify the oceanographic variability in the Canadian Northwest Atlantic [continental] shelf region; higher frequency temporal sampling at more accessible stations to monitor the shorter time scale dynamics in representative areas.

OBS

[Le] Programme de monitorage de la zone Atlantique (PMZA) [...] vise à collecter et [à] analyser l'information biologique, chimique et physique recueillie sur le terrain afin de (1) caractériser et [de] comprendre les causes de la variabilité océanique aux échelles saisonnières, interannuelles et décadales, [de] (2) fournir les ensembles de données pluridisciplinaires qui sont nécessaires pour établir des relations entre les variables biologiques, chimiques et physiques et [de] (3) fournir les données pour le développement durable des activités océaniques.

OBS

La stratégie d'échantillonnage du [Programme de monitorage de la zone Atlantique] est fondée sur : l'échantillonnage saisonnier et opportuniste le long des sections pour quantifier la variabilité océanographique dans la région du plateau [continental] de l'Atlantique Nord-Ouest au Canada[;] l'échantillonnage temporel à plus haute fréquence à partir de stations plus accessibles, pour observer la dynamique à plus courte échelle de temps dans des régions représentatives.

DEF

The application of telemetry in the medical field to remotely monitor various vital signs of ambulatory patients.

CONT

The process of telemetry involves the transmission of data from a source to a receiver typically by radio frequency electromagnetic means. Telemetry has been successfully used in biomedical applications to permit the remote monitoring of patients. An example of a useful signal to be remotely monitored is the electrocardiogram(ECG). A transmitter attached to a patient sends an ECG signal to a remote receiver where it is decoded and monitored. Such biomedical telemetry permits the patient greater mobility than if he were attached to a stationary monitor, thus enhancing the therapeutic benefits from patient mobility.

OBS

biotelemetry: This term also designates a concept in the field of biology referring to the remote measurement of biological functions in both humans and animals.

Key term(s)
  • bio-medical telemetry
  • bio-telemetry

CONT

Le recours aux technologies sans fil à haute performance permet la réalisation avec une façon optimale d'une télémétrie médicale efficace qui se base sur l'acquisition et le traitement des données collectées. En générale, le processus de la télémétrie passe par quatre phases à savoir : capter, envoyer, traiter et utiliser les données.

OBS

télémétrie biomédicale; télémétrie médicale : désignations validées par un spécialiste canadien de l'École de réadaptation de la Faculté de médecine et des sciences de la santé de l'Université de Sherbrooke.

CONT

Los sistemas de biotelemetría se utilizan para la monitorización remota de la situación del paciente. Algunas aplicaciones típicas son la monitorización cardíaca, la vigilancia de la presión sanguínea, la monitorización respiratoria o de episodios de apnea, etc. La telemetría biomédica registra parámetros fisiológicos y otra información relacionada con el paciente y la envía por medio de señales electromagnéticas bi o unidireccionales permitiendo ofrecer una atención de calidad a pacientes con necesidad de atención crónica o aguda optimizando el coste, permitiendo reducir el tiempo de recuperación y la estancia en el hospital.

OBS

biotelemetría: Este término designa también un concepto en el campo de la biología referente a la medición remota de funciones biológicas tanto en humanos como en animales.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Compressors
CONT

Load/unload control also includes variants, such as "auto dual" which shuts the compressor off totally if it remains in the unloaded state for a preset time delay. Other variants may monitor motor starts and/or motor temperature to maximize off time of the motor, while limiting the motor starts to a reasonable frequency.

Subject field(s)
  • Air Traffic Control
CONT

Most oceanic air traffic control, up to now, has relied on voice communications with aircraft to determine their positions. This voice communication, over HF [high frequency] radio, was combined with a time-consuming process to plan routes, separate the aircraft safely, and monitor their positions.
