Most petroleum contamination in Alaska comes from leaking storage tanks, containers, pipes, and equipment; transportation accidents; and improper handling and disposal practices that lead to spills ... The primary concern with petroleum contamination is its chronic toxicity when ingested through contaminated soil, water, or foods over long periods of time. Different types of petroleum cause different kinds of health effects, including headaches, nausea, skin irritation, and cancer. For instance, gasoline contains benzene, a known carcinogen to people and animals. 2, record 1, English, - petroleum%20contamination

Weather observations at Gander are taken from two locations. The primary observation site is located on the roof of the terminal building; a second observation site is located at ground level about 200 feet from the terminal building. When freezing precipitation is present or suspected, weather observers use an ice accretion indicator composed of a small piece of aluminum alloy similar to that found in aircraft structure. It is placed outside at the observation site and inspected for the presence of freezing precipitation at each observation. Mandatory weather observations are taken every 30 minutes, at the hour and half hour. When freezing precipitation is present, the indicator is removed and a new one installed at each mandatory observation. Prior to installation, the indicator is pre-cooled to ambient temperature. Thus, when observed at the next observation following installation, the indicator shows the type and quantity of freezing precipitation which occurred in the previous 30 minutes. 2, record 2, English, - ice%20accretion%20indicator

Freezing fog may not always deposit rime or glaze on the "Ice Accretion Indicator", however if rime or glaze are evident, it positively indicates the presence of super-cooled water droplets and thus freezing rain, freezing drizzle or freezing fog is occurring. Freezing fog creates a significant risk of airframe icing and is therefore very important operational information for forecasters, pilots, flight service specialists, observers, communicators and others. 3, record 2, English, - ice%20accretion%20indicator

Local indicators of spatial autocorrelation.... As the name implies, this is a method for detecting spatial autocorrelation, typically in group-level data. Local indicators of spatial autocorrelation(LISA) allow for the decomposition of global indicators into the contribution of each individual observation. They detect clustering around a given observation rather than a pre-specified site somewhere in the sampled space. The LISA for each observation gives an indication of the extent of significant spatial clustering of similar values around that observation. The sum of LISAs for all observations is proportional to a global indicator of spatial association. There can be two interpretations of the LISA statistics, as indicators of local spatial clusters and as a diagnostic for outliers with respect to the measure of global association(local instability). 4, record 6, English, - local%20indicator%20of%20spatial%20association

«Local Spatial Autocorrelation Characteristics of Landsat TM Imagery of a Managed Forest Area», par M. Wulder et B. Boots. [...] la mesure des indicateurs locaux d'association spatiale (LISA, «local indicators of spatial indicators» [sic]) permet d'évaluer pour chaque pixel de l'image à la fois le degré de dépendance spatiale du pixel par rapport aux pixels voisins et l'amplitude des valeurs de variation dans le voisinage du pixel. Dans cette étude, on applique une mesure LISA, la mesure Getis (Gi), à des images Landsat TM d'une région forestière aménagée. [...] Cette recherche exploratoire confirme que l'information sur la dépendance spatiale telle que dérivée de la mesure de (Gi) constitue une nouvelle source importante d'information spatiale pour l'évaluation des images numériques en milieu forestier. 3, record 6, French, - indicateur%20local%20d%27association%20spatiale

Des travaux plus récents ont permis de développer des mesures locales d'autocorrélation spatiale (Getis et Ord, 1992, Ord et Getis, 1995, Anselin, 1995). Ces mesures décomposent l'indice global de façon à identifier la contribution individuelle de chaque lieu; ils mesurent successivement pour chacun la dépendance/association spatiale entre la valeur de la variable prise en ce lieu et l'ensemble de celles prises dans son voisinage. Ces indices locaux permettent donc de détecter les poches locales d'autocorrélation spatiale. Les deux principales propriétés que doivent remplir les indices locaux pour être considérés comme des indicateurs locaux d'association spatiale (LISA) tels qu'ils ont été définis par Anselin (1995) sont les suivantes : (i) pour chaque observation, ils donnent des indications d'un éventuel regroupement de valeurs similaires (ou de tendance opposée) dans son voisinage, et (ii) la somme des indices locaux sur l'ensemble des observations est proportionnelle à l'indice global correspondant. 4, record 6, French, - indicateur%20local%20d%27association%20spatiale
