construction and validation of a computerized adaptive translation test (a receptive based study)

آزمون انطباقی رایانه ای (cat) روشی نوین برای سنجش سطح علمی دانش آموزان می باشد. در حقیقت آزمون های رایانه ای با سرعت بالایی به سمت و سوی جایگزین عملی برای آزمون های کاغذی می روند (کینگزبری، هاوسر، 1993). مقاله حاضر به دنبال آزمون انطباقی رایانه ای برای ترجمه می باشد. بدین منظور دو پرسشنامه مشتمل بر 55 تست ترجمه میان 102 آزمودنی و 10 مدرس زبان انگلیسی پخش گردید. پرسشنامه اول میان 102 دانشجوی س...

Comparing the Overlapped Cloud Top Altitudes Deduced from A Satellite-Based Retrieval Scheme with Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Ground-Based Measurement

The overlapping of high-level cirrus cloud and low-level stratus cloud has posed a major challenge in determining their cloud top altitudes using passive satellite observations. Chang and Li (2005) present a novel satellite retrieval method that takes advantage of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data to detect the presence of overlapped cirrus and stratus clouds and de...

Cloud Phase Determination Using Ground-Based AERI Observations at SHEBA

A new technique for ascertaining the thermodynamic cloud phase from high-spectral-resolution ground-based infrared measurements made by the Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (AERI) is presented. This technique takes advantage of the differences in the index of refraction of ice and water between 11 and 19 mm. The differences in the refractive indices translate into differences in clou...
