La teneur en eau relative (TER), appelée aussi turgescence relative, est le rapport entre le poids d’eau contenu dans l’échantillon (Peau) au moment du prélèvement et le poids d’eau maximal (Pept) qu’il peut contenir, en conditions physiologiques «normales», quand il se trouve en équilibre avec de l’eau « libre » c’est-à-dire de l’eau pure à la même température (son potentiel hydrique est alors nul). Ce poids Pept correspond alors à un état hydrique maximal, qu’on appelle pleine turgescence. 1, record 1, French, - teneur%20en%20eau%20relative

Volumetric estimates of fish in holding bins(converted to weight) comprise a more accurate method for deriving total catch weight. To apply this technique, first calculate the weight capacity of the holding bin from its volume. If the bin is cubic or rectangular, multiply its length(L), width(W), and height(W) to derive volume … If the holding area is odd-shaped, draw a diagram that separates it into symmetrical portions, calculate volume for each portion, then add these volumes. 1, record 5, English, - total%20catch%20weight

Addition of manures increases fertility of sandy soils by slowly recycling nutrients. Inorganic fertilizers, even if added in low installments, are rapidly lost from sandy soils due to excessive natural drainage.

Ce genre d'appareil est utilisé dans des atmosphères contenant de fortes concentrations de gaz toxiques et pour des utilisations prolongées. Comme l'utilisateur porte sur son dos sa propre réserve d'oxygène, ce genre d'appareil peut être employé dans des atmosphères ne contenant pas suffisamment d'oxygène. Les appareils isolants se divisent en deux catégories principales : les appareils à adduction d'air pur et les appareils autonomes. Dans le premier cas, l'appareil relie l'utilisateur, par une canalisation flexible, à une source d'air pur, alimentée généralement par un compresseur. 1, record 13, French, - appareil%20isolant

Respirators of this design selectively remove particles or vapours from contaminated air. Since they do not carry their own oxygen supply, they can be used only in areas where enough oxygen is available. Their use is also restricted by the concentration of the toxicant to be filtered from the air, the respiratory rate of the user, air temperature, and the internal holding capacity of the filter canister or cartridge.
