Factors are applied to the measured conductivity, depending on what is known or assumed about the salt contamination and various conditions, in order to yield meaningful measurements of contamination.

For example, British North American regulations held that cask heads were to be no thinner than inch, however excavated cask heads yielded measurements below inch thickness.

The agricultural and pesticide industries favor using human subjects because they yield more precise measurements of what humans can tolerate than extrapolations from animal tests.

This yielded measurements of the CMB power spectra out to l of 1500 much more accurately than previously, and more accurate cosmological parameter estimates.

However, this method is only able to evaluate average telomere length in a cell population and the presence of interstitial telomeric sequences in the genome can yield inaccurate measurements.

Disturbances in the space-time structure yielded measurements of transitions which could only have resulted from hyper transits by unknown units.

Errors associated with this mistake may yield measurements that are off many tens of feet and some errors of over forty feet and more have made it onto various champion tree lists, and in at least two cases, the errors have exceeded 60 feet.

The nation's growing obesity has already been well noted, he said, but the report will yield actual measurements, breaking down the data into market segments.
