  1. Temporal mean

    The temporal mean is the arithmetic mean of a time series series of values over a time period . Assuming equidistant measuring or sampling times, it can be computed as the sum of the values over a period divided by the number of values. A simple moving average can be considered to be a sequence of temporal means over periods of equal duration. If the time variable is continuous function continuous , the average value during the time period is the integral over the period divided by the length of the duration of the period. ref citebook title Introduction to Chemical Transport in the Environment author John S.

  1. Temporal resolution

    Temporal resolution TR refers to the Accuracy and precision precision of a measurement with respect to time . Often there is a tradeoff between temporal resolution of a measurement and its angular resolution spatial resolution . In some contexts such as particle physics , this trade off can be attributed to the finite speed of light and the fact that it takes a certain period of time for the photons carrying information to reach the observer. In this time, the system might have undergone changes itself. Thus, the longer the light has to travel the lower is the temporal resolution. This reasoning is subject to contention however, challenged by the teaser posed in the first few chapters of Stephen Hawking Stephen Hawking s book A Brief History of Time . Using the Newton concept, gravitational effects do not seem to be subject to this time delay. The discovery of gravitational wave s could, however, throw more light on this concept. In another context, there is often a tradeoff between temporal resolution and computer storage . A transducer may be able to record data every millisecond , ref http aerade.cranfield.ac.uk ara arc cp 0747.pdf ref ref www.piceramic.com piezo actuator.php ref ref http sensing.honeywell.com index.cfm?ci id 140301. ref but available storage may not allow this, and in the case of Positron emission tomography 4D PET imaging the resolution may be limited to several minutes. ref http ieeexplore.ieee.org iel5 9356 29716 01352352.pdf ref In some applications, temporal resolution may instead be expressed as a refresh rate , meaning the update frequency in Hertz , of a TV, for example.

  1. Temporal encroachment

    Neologism date August 2009 Temporal encroachment is an action that affects the perception of time or that affects the ability to take action in the future . Time Temporal means related to the measurement or passing of time and encroachment is an intrusion, usually unwelcome, into the space of another . The space that temporal encroachment refers to is temporal space, the temporal space or territory upon which others attach significance. There are various kinds of temporal encroachment Scheduling This refers to when one group or person holds another person up. A good example is a vice president making a lower ranked employee wait in his outer office while he conducts business. Another good example is a valued worker who always shows up late to work but is allowed to due to his abilities. This kind of encroachment is very common in the workplace. Various cultures look at this differently the Japan ese are very punctual, while most Latin and Baltic region Baltic cultures would be more relaxed with time, instead looking at social parameters. Future space This refers to actions taken that influence events down the line , narrowing possible choices and alternatives. It is worth noting that the most common use of this phrase is found in ecology , where there is a large amount of concern about the effects of human encroachment upon animals and other wildlife. Encroachment can be a good or bad factor in the lives of the animals, but most commonly, it is bad. It has been used by some Jewish thinkers ref name springer http www.springerlink.com content q7122u6t67863756 fulltext.pdf SpringerLink ... Encroachment of old age below.

  1. Temporal discounting

    Temporal discounting refers to the tendency of people to discount rewards as they approach a temporal horizon in the future or the past i.e., become so distant in time that they cease to be valuable or to have additive effects . To put it another way, it is a tendency to give greater value to rewards as they move away from their temporal horizons and towards the now . For instance, a nicotine deprived smoker may highly value a cigarette available any time in the next 6 hours but assign little or no value to a cigarette available in 6 months ref Impulsivity and cigarette smoking delay discounting in current, never, and ex smokers. Bickel, W. Odum, A., & Madden, G. Psychopharmacology. 1999 Oct 146 4 447 454. ref .

It is also known as delay discounting or time discounting. Traditional models of economics assumed that the discounting function is exponential discounting exponential in time leading to a monotonic decrease in preference with increased time delay however, more recent neuroeconomic models suggest a hyperbolic discounting hyperbolic discount function which can address the phenomenon of preference reversal ref A Discounting framework for choice with delayed and probabilistic rewards.

  1. Temporal feedback

    Orphan date December 2011 context date November 2011 Temporal feedback , also referred to as interlinked or interlocked feedback, is a biological regulatory motif in which fast and slow positive feedback loops are interlinked to create all or none switches. This interlinking produces separate, adjustable activation and de activation times. This type of feedback is thought to be important in cellular processes in which an all or none decision is a necessary response to a specific input. The mitotic trigger, polarization in budding Yeast Science yeast , mammalian Calcium signaling calcium signal transduction, Epidermal growth factor receptor EGF receptor signaling, platelet activation , and Xenopus oocyte maturation are examples for interlinked fast and slow multiple positive feedback systems. ref name Brandman cite journal last Brandman first Onn coauthors James E.

  1. Paradox of the plankton

    In Aquatic ecosystem aquatic biology , the paradox of the plankton is the name given to the situation where a limited range of resources light , nutrient s supports a much wider range of plankton ic organism s. The paradox stems from a result of the competitive exclusion principle sometimes referred to as Georgii Gause Gause s Law , which suggests that when two species Competition biology compete for the same resource, ultimately only one will persist and the other will be driven to extinct ion. The high biodiversity diversity of phytoplankton at all Phylogenetics phylogenetic levels stands in contrast to the limited range of resources for which they compete with one another e.g. light, nitrate , phosphate , silicic acid , iron . The paradox was originally described by the limnology limnologist G. Evelyn Hutchinson , who proposed that the paradox may be resolved by factors such as water column vertical gradients of light or turbulence , symbiosis or commensalism , differential predation , or constantly changing environmental conditions. ref Hutchinson, G.

  1. Paradox of enrichment

    The paradox of enrichment is a term from population ecology coined by Michael Rosenzweig in 1971. He described an effect in six Predator prey equations predator prey models wherein increasing the food available to the prey caused the predator s population to destabilize. A common example is that if the food supply of a prey such as a rabbit is overabundant, its population will grow unbounded and cause the predator population such as a lynx to grow unsustainably large. This may result in a crash in the population of the predators and possibly lead to local eradication or even species extinction. The term paradox has been used since then to describe this effect in slightly conflicting ways. The original sense was one of irony that by attempting to increase carrying capacity in an ecosystem, one could fatally imbalance it. Since then, some authors have used the word to describe the difference between modelled and real predator prey interactions.
