Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library, the Glossary

The Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library (EOSAEL) was developed in 1979 by the U.S. Army Atmospheric Sciences Laboratory, which later became a part of the U.S. Army Research Laboratory.^[1]

Aerosol

An aerosol is a suspension of fine solid particles or liquid droplets in air or another gas.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Aerosol

Algorithm

In mathematics and computer science, an algorithm is a finite sequence of mathematically rigorous instructions, typically used to solve a class of specific problems or to perform a computation.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Algorithm

Atmosphere

An atmosphere is a layer of gasses that envelop an astronomical object, held in place by the gravity of the object.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Atmosphere

Atmospheric science

Atmospheric science is the study of the Earth's atmosphere and its various inner-working physical processes.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Atmospheric science

Battlefield

A battlefield, battleground, or field of battle is the location of a present or historic battle involving ground warfare.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Battlefield

Biological agent

Biological weapons are pathogens used as weapons.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Biological agent

Chaff

Chaff is dry, scale-like plant material such as the protective seed casings of cereal grains, the scale-like parts of flowers, or finely chopped straw.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Chaff

Chemical weapon

A chemical weapon (CW) is a specialized munition that uses chemicals formulated to inflict death or harm on humans.

Computer simulation

Computer simulation is the process of mathematical modelling, performed on a computer, which is designed to predict the behaviour of, or the outcome of, a real-world or physical system.

Extremely high frequency

Extremely high frequency is the International Telecommunication Union designation for the band of radio frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum from 30 to 300 gigahertz (GHz).

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Extremely high frequency

Far infrared

Far infrared (FIR) or long wave refers to a specific range within the infrared spectrum of electromagnetic radiation.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Far infrared

Gas

Gas is one of the four fundamental states of matter.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Gas

Infrared

Infrared (IR; sometimes called infrared light) is electromagnetic radiation (EMR) with wavelengths longer than that of visible light but shorter than microwaves.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Infrared

Laser

A laser is a device that emits light through a process of optical amplification based on the stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Laser

Laser line level

A laser line level is a tool combining a spirit level and/or plumb bob with a laser to display an accurately horizontal or vertical illuminated line on a surface the laser line level is laid against.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Laser line level

Military technology

Military technology is the application of technology for use in warfare.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Military technology

Operating system

An operating system (OS) is system software that manages computer hardware and software resources, and provides common services for computer programs.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Operating system

Particulates

Particulates or atmospheric particulate matter (see below for other names) are microscopic particles of solid or liquid matter suspended in the air.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Particulates

Passband

A passband is the range of frequencies or wavelengths that can pass through a filter.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Passband

Target acquisition

Target acquisition is the detection and identification of the location of a target in sufficient detail to permit the effective employment of lethal and non-lethal means.

See Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and Target acquisition

United States Army Research Laboratory

The U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Army Research Laboratory (DEVCOM ARL) is the U.S. Army's foundational research laboratory. Electro-Optical Systems Atmospheric Effects Library and United States Army Research Laboratory are Military simulation, Military technology and research installations of the United States Army.
