  2. Surface weather analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_weather_analysis

    A surface weather analysis for the United States on October 21, 2006. By that time, Tropical Storm Paul was active (Paul later became a hurricane). Surface weather analysis is a special type of weather map that provides a view of weather elements over a geographical area at a specified time based on information from ground-based weather stations.

  3. Trend surface analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trend_surface_analysis

    Trend surface analysis is a mathematical technique used in environmental sciences (archeology, geology, soil science, etc.). Trend surface analysis (also called trend surface mapping) is a method based on low-order polynomials of spatial coordinates for estimating a regular grid of points from scattered observations.

  4. Secondary ion mass spectrometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_ion_mass...

    Static SIMS is the process involved in surface atomic monolayer analysis, or surface molecular analysis, usually with a pulsed ion beam and a time of flight mass spectrometer, while dynamic SIMS is the process involved in bulk analysis, closely related to the sputtering process, using a DC primary ion beam and a magnetic sector or quadrupole ...

  5. Surface metrology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_metrology

    Surface metrology is the measurement of small-scale features on surfaces, and is a branch of metrology. Surface primary form, surface fractality, and surface finish (including surface roughness) are the parameters most commonly associated with the field. It is important to many disciplines and is mostly known for the machining of precision ...

  6. History of surface weather analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_surface_weather...

    The history of surface weather analysis concerns the timetable of developments related to surface weather analysis. Initially a tool of study for the behavior of storms, surface weather analyses became a work in progress to explain current weather and as an aid for short term weather forecasting .

    TGA – Thermogravimetric analysis; TIKA – Transmitting ion kinetic analysis; TIMS – Thermal ionization mass spectrometry; TIRFM – Total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy; TLS – Photothermal lens spectroscopy, a type of photothermal spectroscopy; TMA – Thermomechanical analysis; TOF-MS – Time-of-flight mass spectrometry

  8. Surface map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_map

    A 3D surface map of Mt. St. Helens with a 2D contour map above for comparison. In mathematics, geology, and cartography, a surface map is a 2D perspective representation of a 3-dimensional surface. [1] Surface maps usually represent real-world entities such as landforms or the surfaces of objects.

  9. Surface plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_plot

    Surface plot may refer to: Surface plot (mathematics), a graph of a function of two variables; Surface plot (graphics), the visualization of a surface;
