      • 350 vs 380:

        This is the official response ”The image quality of the two microscopes is similar. The difference lies in the appearance. At 40 times magnification, the clear range of 380T is larger, which is 70%, 350T is 50%, and the fine-tuning accuracy is higher for 380T, which is 3.4 microns, and 350T is 27 microns."

  • Earth's magnetic field:

    At the Earth's surface the total intensity varies from 22,000 nanotesla (nT) to 67,000 nT. Other units likely to be encountered are the Gauss (1 Gauss = 100,000 nT), the gamma (1 gamma = 1 nT) and the Ørsted.

    The HamSCI magnetometers use an off-the-shelf, low-cost magnetic sensor (RM3100) using a new technology (“magneto-inductive”), manufactured by PNI Corp. The sensor is capable of measuring magnetic fields with a resolution of 3 nT at 1 Hz with a noise floor of 4 pT/ at 1 Hz. A previous study [7] demonstrated that the sensor performance is adequate for both space-borne and ground-based applications to study geomagnetic activity. Given that the sensor will be located in various electromagnetic environments by amateur participants, we expect the performance to be somewhat compromised and thus our target level is 10 nT at 1 Hz.

  One measurement that causes a lot of confusion is "Equivalent CO2." The CCS811 will report equivalent CO2 in parts-per-million, but that number can be a little bit deceptive. It's important to recognize that the CCS811 cannot measure CO2 and that the "equivalent CO2" being reported by the CCS811 has nothing to do with actual CO2 present in the area. So why the heck is it called "CO2 Equivalent Units" and why would anyone need it? The answer comes down to the use of indoor air quality sensors — like the CCS811 — in HVAC control.

  Building ventilation, it turns out, is all about occupancy. The more people present in a space, the more CO2 they're exhaling, and the more ventilation is required. Now, it's certainly possible to design and operate an HVAC system around the design occupancy of a building or room, in other words the number of people expected to use a space. But this means that you may be wasting energy at times when the building isn't actually occupied. To solve this problem, many HVAC systems will monitor the concentration of CO2 in a given area in order to calculate the amount of air exchange needed in a scheme called "demand-controlled ventilation."

  Makers of indoor air quality sensors that don't detect CO2 (in an attempt to market their devices for demand-controlled ventilation systems) have correlated rising CO2 levels in certain environments to rising VOC levels. It's important to recognize that this is a correlation of the change in levels and not a correlation of the levels themselves: High VOC concentrations are not analogous to high CO2 concentrations. But it can be said that if the VOC concentration of a given space begins to slowly climb above baseline, it probably corresponds to room occupancy and an increase in CO2 (because humans exhale both CO2 and VOCs). Therefore, the manufacturers of these devices report the "CO2 Equivalent Units" with respect to this correlation so that their devices might fit more easily into an existing demand-controlled ventilation scheme.
