[A] wind turbine [whose] rotor revolutions are [kept] even by adjusting the blade angle.  11, record 1, English, - pitch%2Dregulated%20wind%20turbine

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS

In the case of a system with blade-angle adjustment, the electronic controller constantly measures the system's power output. If this is too high, a command is sent to the blade-adjusting system with the result that the rotor blades are moved slightly out of the wind. When the wind drops, the blades are turned into the wind. It must therefore be possible to turn the rotor blades around their own longitudinal axis.  11, record 1, English, - pitch%2Dregulated%20wind%20turbine

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Sur une éolienne contrôlée à calage variable (appelée aussi une éolienne à pas variable), le contrôleur électronique vérifie plusieurs fois par seconde la puissance de sortie de l'éolienne. En cas de puissance de sortie trop élevée, le contrôleur électronique de l'éolienne envoie une commande au dispositif de calage qui pivote immédiatement les pales légèrement sur le côté, hors du vent. Inversement, les pales seront pivotées de manière à pouvoir mieux capter de nouveau l'énergie du vent, dès que le vent aura baissé d'intensité.  3, record 1, French, - %C3%A9olienne%20%C3%A0%20pas%20variable

Before heading out to the backcountry, it's important to monitor the weather for several days beforehand. In just minutes slight fluctuations in weather can turn an otherwise safe slope into avalanche-prone territory. Always be aware of precipitation, the wind and how the sun hits the slopes. For example, a sudden storm with rain can almost instantly destabilize a slope's snow cover.  3, record 3, English, - destabilize

The primary ground station will send the processed data to users via the satellite at a high and a low rate. High Rate Information Transmission(HRIT) will contain the full volume of processed, compressed image data and Low Rate Information Transmission(LRIT) will contain a reduced set at lower resolution. In addition, the Eumetsat Control and Processing Centre, with support from other satellite applications facilities throughout Europe, will extract information from the processed data and turn it into ’products’ of particular use to meteorologists and climatologists, such as wind field diagrams, maps of upper tropospheric humidity and analyses of cloud shape and height.  3, record 5, English, - satellite%20applications%20facilities
