Paleoclimate studies using AMS [Accelerator Mass Spectrometry] radiocarbon... During the past several years, AMS measurements have increasingly supplanted the traditional counting method of dating since they offer greatly increased sensitivity(sub-milligram samples can be dated) and, in many instances, greater accuracy; they are also very much faster. However, the typical "bulk carbon" sample preparation techniques used for both AMS and... counting leave unanswered the question of just what is being dated, a grave disadvantage in palynological and other paleoclimate studies. In contrast, the extraction procedures that have been developed here typically produce purified pollen samples which can be clearly identified under the microscope; thus, an unambiguous proxy climate indicator-pollen-is dated, and nothing else. 2, record 8, English, - proxy%20climate%20indicator

Using the calendar method, a woman records the length of her menstrual cycle over an eight-month period. Then, counting the length of the shortest cycle as the earliest likely day of menstruation and the length of the longest cycle as the latest likely day, she can calculate the fertile period. By subtracting 18 days from the earliest day and 11 days from the last likely day of menstruation, she obtains 2 figures which represent the commencement and conclusion of her fertile period. Outside this time, during her unsafe days, she must... avoid intercourse. 1, record 17, English, - calendar%20method

Cette méthode est basée sur le calcul de la période de fertilité. La femme ... doit prendre note de son cycle menstruel pendant 8 mois. Toute la méthode repose sur trois constatations : 1) L'ovulation survient fort probablement 12 à 16 jours avant le 1er jour de la menstruation suivante. 2) Les spermatozoïdes gardent leur pouvoir fécondant pendant 48 heures après le coit. 3) L'ovule peut être fécondé pendant les 24 heures suivant sa sortie de l'ovaire. [Donc], il faudrait, éviter le coït pour deux jours avant la première date possible d'ovulation. 1, record 17, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20du%20calendrier

Strictly speaking, the definitions given for mathematical fractals in 2. 2 and 2. 3 are valid only if there is an equivalence between the scaling observed by covering the structure with a lattice of boxes(box counting) and using boxes of increasing size centered on the same point(sandbox method). This equivalence exists only for uniform fractals with no multifractal spectrum of their mass distribution. 4, record 18, English, - box
