They are usually though not always unmanned, filled with a lighter than air gas like helium , and fly at high altitude balloon high altitudes . Meteorology, atmospheric research, astronomy, and military research may be conducted from a research balloon. Weather balloon s are a type of research balloon. Research balloons usually study a single aspect of science, such as air pollution, air temperature, or wind currents, although sometimes several experiments or equipment are flown together. Image Malcolm Ross AHM USNO19570507 212.png thumb right Malcolm Ross balloonist Malcolm Ross piloting a research balloon down from the stratosphere Other than weather balloons, few research balloons are launched every year. This is driven by the large cost of the balloon, the instrument, which is usually custom made, and the cost of the launch. Because of the altitude reached by most research balloons, the air is too thin and too cold for humans to survive, therefore most research balloons are unmanned and operated remotely. There have been some balloons equipped with pressurized cabins, beginning with professor Auguste Piccard in the 1930s. Research balloons are not only used on earth. With the help of a research balloon, the upper atmosphere of Venus was examined by the Vega program .

Dialectical research or dialectical inquiry or dialectical investigation is a form of qualitative research which utilizes the method of dialectic , aiming to discover truth through examining and interrogating competing ideas, perspectives or arguments. Dialectical research can be seen as a form of exploratory research , in that there is not so much a research hypothesis to be tested, but rather new understandings to be developed. Dialectical research may also be thought of as the opposite of empirical research , in that the researcher is working with arguments and ideas, rather than data. Indeed Bertell Ollman 1993 argues that all research is either dialectical or nondialectical. Dialectical research may be applied to a range of problems. For instance, Eli Berniker and David McNabb 2006 argue for the application of dialectical research for the study of organizational processes and James Page 2008 has used a dialectical research method to develop a philosophy of peace education.

Unreferenced date April 2009 The terms independent research and alternative research are used broadly interchangeably, to mean research that is not produced by a bank or broker , and thus is ostensibly less prone to influence from within a bank from, say, investment bankers keen to win company s Initial public offering IPO mandate. However, someone has to fund the costs of conducting the research, and when the funder is the company being researched, this form of independent research is termed sponsored or company paid research. Unfortunately, with the subject company paying directly for these services, this form of research suffers from a real or perceived lack of objectivity science objectivity , which reduces its value to investor s and hence to the companies themselves. Intermediated Research improves significantly upon the sponsored research model, by introducing important safeguards into the commercial and research process framework. Central here are the company has no choice in its allocation to a research provider once matched with the research provider, the company is under a long term contract in order to minimize commercial pressure or influence and the fees paid to the research provider are not sufficiently material for the company to be able to exert any influence over the content or conclusions of the research report. Collectively, these measures enhance the value of the report to investors and consequently, to the company itself. The Intermediated Research framework includes the further protections ensuring that the independent research firms involved have no investment banking or brokerage operations in their business model s conduct no traditional company paid research deliver a standard template for analysis of every company so that all standard topics are covered and avoiding ratings and target prices in the reports, since these can risk becoming a focus of pressure exerted on the research provider by the subject company.
