GOES-16's Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) is the first operational lightning mapper flown in geostationary orbit. The spacecraft also includes four other scientific instruments for monitoring space weather and the Sun. GOES-16's design and instrumentation began in 1999 and was intended to fill key NOAA satellite requirements published that ...
Catastrophic optical damage is one of the limiting factors in increasing performance of semiconductor lasers. It is the primary failure mode for AlGaInP / AlGaAs red lasers. [1] Short-wavelength lasers are more susceptible to COD than long-wavelength ones. The typical values for COD in industrial products range between 12 and 20 MW /cm 2 .
GOES-17 (designated pre-launch as GOES-S) is an environmental satellite operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The satellite is second in the four-satellite GOES-R series ( GOES-16, -17, - T, and - U ). GOES-17 supports the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) system, providing multi-spectral ...

Images may appear a little blurry or hazy, especially in the central part of your field of vision. You may notice that objects appear dimmer and less vivid, and that colors take on a yellowish ...
In one hour, cod have been recorded to cover a mean range of 99 to 226 m (325 to 741 ft). Swimming speed was higher during the day than at night. This is reflected in the fact that cod more actively search for food during the day. Cod likely modify their activity pattern according to the length of daylight, thus activity varies with time of year.
The Next Steps After a Two-Vessel Cord Diagnosis. Typically, an umbilical cord has two arteries and one vein. However, some babies have just one artery and vein. This condition is known as a two ...
