	North American Eastern Standard Time Zone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the United States, the following states are part of the Eastern Standard Time Zone: Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Vermont, Virginia, and West Virginia.
		Additionally, the eastern half of Kentucky, the eastern quarter of Tennessee, the majority of Florida, and all of Michigan except the four Upper Peninsula counties that border Wisconsin (Gogebic, Iron, Dickinson, Menominee) are part of the Eastern Standard Time Zone.
		The parts of these states not in the Eastern Standard Time Zone are in the Central Standard Time Zone.

	Daylight saving time
		North America generally follows the same procedure, going by local time in each zone, each time zone switching at 2am LST (local standard time) to 3am LDT on the first Sunday in April, and again from 2am LDT to 1am LST on the last Sunday in October.
		Then on March 19, 1918 the United States Congress established several time zones (which were already in use by railroads since 1883) and made daylight saving time official (which went into effect on March 31) for the remainder of World War I. It was observed for seven months in 1918 and 1919.
		Daylight saving time was reinstated in the United States on February 9, 1942, again as a wartime measure to conserve resources, this time in order to fight World War II.

	North American fauna - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about North American fauna
		While many of the natural habitats of North America have been developed by humans – in particular the western prairies and the eastern broadleaf woodlands – and many of their associated species heavily depleted, the northern wetlands, reaching across the continent from the Pacific to the Atlantic, have remained relatively untouched.
		Though much of the native North American fauna has been heavily depleted, it is nevertheless true that more has been done for the effective conservation of the remnant than in any other continent.

		If the time is immediately followed (no white space) by a North American or European time zone designation, then this determines the standard meridian, which may be specified alternatively with the -m option.
		The time value may be given either as decimal hours, or using a colon to separate hours and minutes.
		By default, the time is interpreted as local standard time on a 24-hour clock.

		To convert a Universal Time and date to a standard time and date in North America, subtract the following number of hours: for Eastern Standard Time (EST), 5; for Central Standard Time (CST), 6; for Mountain Standard Time (MST), 7; for Pacific Standard Time (PST), 8; for Alaska, 9; or Hawaii, 10.
		Logically enough, the 'universal' time zone that was agreed upon is that of 0Â° longitude.
		Standard time (and its daylight-saving variant) serves fine within a given time zone.

	CRWS Background Information: Time Labels on Satellite Images and Weather Maps
		Since many images and maps cover regions large enough to span more than one time zone, it makes little sense to put the "local" time on an image.
		Instead, the time that appears on most images is an internationally agreed-upon reference time--namely, the local standard time in Greenwich, England.
		Satellite images and weather maps are usually labeled with the date and time at which the data were recorded.

	Montreal Mirror - The Front: Cover: Time
		The area east of the 63rd meridian west, on Quebec's north shore, is already in the Atlantic Time Zone.
		Although Canada's railway scheduler Sir Sanford Fleming pioneered Standard Time in 1879 (it was universally adopted five years later), we've become a slavish follower to American practices of the clock, even though the DST issue affects the States far less dramatically than it does Canada.
		In Canada, provinces are free to set their time zones at will, and in Quebec the dossier is on the lap of the Justice Ministry, whose press agents simply referred questions to factual information on their Web site.

		The Cenozoic time scale is primarily calibrated from biostratigraphical correlations with polarity chrons, which in turn are scaled according to marine magnetic anomaly profiles from the South Atlantic seafloor, pinned to a selected set of nine Ar/Ar radiometric ages (Berggren et al., 1995).
		The time scale study was undertaken as a joint project between Saga Petroleum ASA., the Digital Time Scale (DTS) study group at Purdue University and the International Committee for Quantitative Stratigraphy operates under the auspices of the International Commission on Stratigraphy.
		The standard time scale defines this epoch boundary between the Tithonian and Berriasian stages, but offshore Norway a definition between the Volgian and Ryazanian stages is advantageous.

	The Sunday of Two Noons
		In Stewart Holbrook’s (1947), The Story of American Railroads, he explained this concept: “When solar time is noon in Chicago, it was 12:31 Pittsburgh...[and it was] 11:50 in St. Louis.” According to “sun time”, there was more than a minute’s difference in time from the east to the west side of Chicago.
		Solomon, B. The Heritage of North American Steam Railroads: From the First Days of Steam Power to the Present.
		Time was kept by “sun time”, which defined noon as the “moment when the sun was directly overhead and cast no shadow.” (Time…) This form of telling time became complicated however, due to the fact that the “earth’s rotation changed the sun’s position every12.5 miles along the east-west latitude.”(Time…).
