 | | 6:00 to 1:00, the last hour may well count as being part of the previous day (also for the arrangement of the timetable). | | | The present common convention has the civil day start at midnight, which is near the time of the lower culmination of the mean Sun on the central meridian of the time zone. | | | A day as opposed to night is commonly defined as the period that sunlight reaches the ground, assuming that there are no local obstacles. |

| | The user also has the option of not using the distribution optimization feature, thereby saving a significant amount of computation time, but reporting network costs that may be significantly higher than with the optimization. | | | The algorithm functions by first calculating distribution routing using an engineering "rule of thumb" and then comparing the cost with the spanning tree result, choosing the routing that minimizes annualized cost. | | | The copper cable used in the local loop typically is either 24- or 26-gauge copper. |

| | But, in such other countries as have special time regulations, these must be taken into account in calculating True Local Time. | | | This is done by adding to the True Local Time of birth, four minutes for every degree of longitude, if the birthplace is west of Greenwich, or subtracting four minutes for each degree of longitude if the birthplace is east of Greenwich. | | | The rule for obtaining True Local Time is: to the nearest Standard Meridian Time, add four minutes for each degree the birth place is east of the Meridian corresponding to that Time. |

| | Technical Notes on Mars Solar Time |
| | Time tags for the Mars Pathfinder Lander were referenced with respect to the local true solar time, with elapsed sols reckoned from the local true solar midnight preceding its landing, but designated with a starting number "1" rather than zero. | | | In the mid-1800s the use of locally measured and defined time on Earth was gradually supplanted by the use of time zones in order to facilitate standardization of railroad schedules and, to a lesser extent, of recording scientific observations. | | | Comparison to known times for a limited number of solar and Earth rise and set events at Mars lander sites suggest that absent topographic and atmospheric effects, the error in calculating these times is less than 30 seconds. |

| | Hence, careful treatment of the local time derivatives, such as calculating the local time derivative only after placing successive radar volumes in a frame of reference selected to minimize the local time changes, is necessary. | | | The temporal resolution issue also arises in applying the retrieval technique as the local time derivatives in the momentum equations (13.19) begin to approach the advective terms in magnitude. | | | The data were taken near the center of a microburst downdraft at different analysis times. |

| | We show how local fields should be used in the Coupled Perturbative Hartree Fock (CPHF) or Finite Field methods for calculating these properties, specifically for the Direct Reaction Field approach, in which a quantum chemically treated 'solute' is embedded in a classical 'solvent' mainly containing discrete molecules. | | | Finally, it has been demonstrated that the catalytic cycles of the aminoalcohol and aminothiol promoted reactions are quite similar, although the local mimima of the intermediate structures of interest on the potential energy surface of the aminothiol promoted reaction are more shallow in comparison to those of the aminoalcohol promoted reaction. | | | The method is tested on a one-dimensional model of the H2+ molecule that can be solved essentially exactly by numerical integration of the time-dependent Schrdinger equation. |

| | We contrast finite-time Lyapunov exponents with local doubling (tripling, quadrupling, \ldots, q-pling) times; noting that the localized Lyapunov exponents require a time-scale be defined {\it a priori}, whereas the q-pling times provide the time-scale of interest. | | | While this is no proof of chaoticity, monitoring the dimensionality of this attractor with time has been found to deliver interesting consistent results: Calculating an effective temporally moving dimension unveils persistent trends of attractor dimensionality spanning up to several years. | | | The long time asymptotic structure in the case of an autonomous operator is the norm independent most rapidly growing normal mode while in the case of the non-autonomous operator it is the Lyapunov vector which is also norm independent and grows at the mean rate of the first Lyapunov exponent. |
