Least Squares Analysis of Noise-Free Tides Using Energy Conservation and Relative Concentration of Periods Criteria
In this article, a new approach to tidal harmonic analysis is introduced. This approach incorporates more constituents in the least squares method for a fixed duration of noise-free tidal record and results in a more accurate tidal prediction. Moreover, it is demonstrated that 135 days of hourly data, which is significantly less than 369 days data in the Rayleigh criterion, is sufficient for th...

متن کاملHearing asymmetry and auditory acuity
right auditory inputs to locate their prey or mates, the reasonable expectation is that ears should remain symmetrical. However, this is not always the case, and in some animals auditory asymmetry has been shown to be adaptive, improving localisation for specialised tasks. For example, the vertical asymmetrical placement of the external auditory meatus in some species of nocturnal owls increase...
متن کاملWorking in noise with a hearing loss: perceptions from workers, supervisors, and hearing conservation program managers.
OBJECTIVE Workers with hearing loss face special problems, especially when working in noise. However, conventional hearing conservation practices do not distinguish between workers with normal hearing versus impaired hearing. This study collected information from workers with self-reported noise exposure and hearing loss, supervisors of such workers, and hearing conservation program managers th...
متن کاملNoise-induced hearing loss and hearing conservation in the iron and steel industry in South Africa
Background and Purpose: The iron and steel industry in South Africa has been identifi ed as one of the highest risk industries in terms of noise induced hearing loss (NIHL). The National Institute for Occupational Health was commissioned by the Department of Labour to audit the current noise exposure levels and hearing conservation practices in eight major producers of iron and steel, and to ma...
