Dosimeters. The OSHA [Occupational Safety and Health Act] law requires characterization of varying noise environments by a single number criteria. The environment may be that experienced by a mobile employee whose work takes him into many different factory areas, or it may be a fixed work area where intermittent machine operations produce unpredictable variations in noise level. OSHA specifies a maximum daily noise dose (D) of unity: ... where C is the total exposure at a given steady dBA level and T is the maximum allowable exposure time at that level during a 8-hour work day. ... Noise dose can be predicted for mobile workers by studying their movements and estimating the total time they are exposed to each different dBA level they experience. 2, record 2, English, - noise%20dose

The test equipment consists of a horizontal tunnel 7. 6 m long, 450 mm wide, and 300 mm deep... The roof is removable and lined with a low density material of mineral composition. The walls and floor are constructed of refractory fire brick. One wall has observation windows along its length. Flames from two burners at one end are forced down the tunnel by a steady draught of air at 1. 2 m/s. These burner flames are about 1. 37 m long, release heat at a steady rate of about 90 kW, and impinge directly on the test specimen, which is mounted either on the floor or on the ceiling of the tunnel. This exposure is similar in intensity to what occurs when a small piece of furniture leaning against a wall is set on fire. The tunnel is calibrated by adjusting the rate of heat release of the burners so that it takes about five and a half minutes for flames to reach the exhaust end of the tunnel when the specimen is 18 mm select-grade red oak. In the exhaust duct at the end of the tunnel are a light source and detector for measuring smoke and a thermocouple for determining heat released. 3, record 5, English, - tunnel%20test

L'une des parois est dotée de fenêtres d'observation. Des flammes produites par deux brûleurs situés à l'une des extrémités du four d'essai sont soufflées vers l'intérieur par un courant d'air stable de 1,2 m/s. Ces flammes, d'environ 1,37 m de long, ont un dégagement de chaleur stable d'environ 90 kW, et touchent directement l'échantillon qui est monté soit sur le plancher ou au plafond du tunnel. Cette exposition est semblable en intensité à ce qui se produit lorsqu'un meuble de petites dimensions appuyé contre un mur est incendié. Le tunnel est étalonné en ajustant la vitesse de dégagement de la chaleur des brûleurs de sorte qu'il faille environ cinq minutes et demie aux flammes pour atteindre l'extrémité 'évent' du tunnel lorsque l'échantillon est en chêne rouge de 18 mm. Dans le conduit d'évacuation à l'extrémité du tunnel se trouvent une source lumineuse et un détecteur pour mesurer la fumée, ainsi qu'un thermocouple pour déterminer la chaleur dégagée. 1, record 5, French, - essai%20en%20tunnel

Photoperiodism is the use of the change in day and night length to time certain physiological and behavioural functions. I am interested in how temperate birds use the change in day length to time reproduction. Most birds do not have their gonads all year round. They regenerate their sexual organs to coincide with the breeding season. Day and night length is not the only environmental cue that they can use to help them time reproduction correctly. For example some birds use temperature and rainfall. 4, record 6, English, - photoperiodism

Les botanistes supposèrent donc qu'il existait un pigment végétal que la lumière rouge orangé métamorphosait, et auquel la lumière infrarouge restituait son état initial. Ce pigment, découvert en 1952 et appelé phytochrome, est une protéine. C'est probablement grâce à lui que la plante «distingue» la nuit du jour. La plupart des sources lumineuses, notamment le Soleil, émettent principalement des rayons rouge orangé.

Long-term exposure is the last classification of exposure in industrial toxicology. This exposure is not typically found in the industrial environment but is used extensively in laboratory applications. Even with novel work hours, workers rarely exceed 16 hours on the job. Therefore, long-term exposure is not as valuable in the industrial environment as it has been in laboratory testing. Long-term generally relates to exposures of greater than one year in length and is usually used in carcinogen testing of animals. 1, record 14, English, - long%2Dterm%20exposure

Administrative controls can limit an employee’s exposure to a hazard by reducing the time of potential exposure. Administrative controls are usually implemented when exposures cannot be controlled through engineering procedures, or where controls at the source are impractical. 1, record 15, English, - administrative%20controls
Record number: 15, Textual support number: 1 OBS
One such method of control involves the arrangement of work schedules so that the exposure duration is minimized.... [For example, where] the exposure limit is exceeded for a worker in one shift, the job can be assigned to more than one worker so that each individual' s length of exposure is within the permissible limit.... A second approach is to schedule hazardous operations or processes during a shift when fewer employees are present to minimize the number of workers exposed. 1, record 15, English, - administrative%20controls

Nous pensons que le terme "mesures" est peut être préférable à celui de "contrôles", parce qu'il est plus général. Le présent contexte est celui des mesures administratives prises pour assurer le respect de normes d'hygiène et de sécurité du travail. Le terme "contrôle", qui possède la connotation d'une autorité qui réglemente, qui impose des restrictions à l'activité qu'elle est chargée de surveiller de façon à l'empêcher de prendre des libertés qui lui permettraient d'échapper à sa surveillance (référence : source DADIF) recèle, à notre avis, un petit côté "police" qui l'éloigne de la notion qu'il est sensé désigner. 1, record 15, French, - contr%C3%B4les%20administratifs
