Spanning the region between the blue and red chlorophyll absorption bands, this band corresponds to the green reflectance of healthy vegetation.
This band is especially responsive to the amount of vegetation biomass present in a scene.
In addition, this band can be used to discriminate between clouds, snow, and ice (so important in hydrologic research) as well as being able to remove the effects of thin clouds and smoke.

Band 4 is useful for crop identification and emphasizes soil-crop and land-water contrast.
Because band 3 (0.63-0.69m m) is the red chlorophyll absorption band of healthy green vegetation and band 2 (0.52-0.69m m) is the reflectance band from leaf surfaces.
Both band 5 and band 7 are sensitive to moisture content variation in soils and vegetation.

 Penetration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In firearms, penetration (firearms) refers to the ability to pierce the target; higher penetration means that it is more likely to pierce effective body armor.
For missiles, penetration can also refer to the ability reach the target, including avoiding being destroyed by defense measures; for this purpose penetration aids (penaids for short) are applied, see e.g.
In sexology, sexual penetration is the penetration of an orifice as part of a sexual act

Penetrance is a term used in genetics that describes the extent to which the properties controlled by a gene, its phenotype, will be expressed.
Penetrance and heritability appear closely related at first glance, but in fact it is possible to carry a huge number of inherited genes with low penetrance and not be aware of them.
Penetration diving or no clear surface diving is a type of diving where the SCUBA diver enters a space from which there is no direct, purely vertical ascent to the safety of breathable air of the atmosphere at the surface.

However as penetration levels increase outdoor communication systems, notably RLANs and wireless bridges, are expected to become the most significant interference factor Outdoor communication systems will tend to be self limiting in that their own performance and coverage range will suffer at higher penetration levels.
Radio technologies in the 2.4 GHz band This section of the report considers each of the radio technologies either currently used in the band or planned for future deployment, with a particular emphasis on their potential as interferers into public or private 2.4 GHz telecommunication systems.
As these are substantially similar to the penetration levels we have projected for RLAN systems, and as the interference contribution from RFID devices is expected to be similar to or less than that from indoor RLANs (see section 2.4.1), the interference analyses involving indoor RLAN interferers are also considered to be valid for RFID interferers.

The band are playing Don't Dictate and as it starts a "fan" or rather twat at the front decides it's a really cool idea to shake up his bottle of beer and spray ft at Pauline Murray as she starts the song.
Musically Penetration were more polished steel than heavy metal, they seemed to desperately want to be American and hip like Television or the Patti Smith group - but they still had a Buzzcockian pop sensibility, a bit of a literary and philosophical bent.
Penetration were NOT a rip-off of PSG -they covered one of her songs and they dug her shit (if you knowarrlmean mean)..

Penetration -- named after the Iggy Pop tune -- was North-East England's contribution to the late 1970's punk scene.
Their debut single Don't Dictate was released on November 5, 1977; and it set a style of strident, passionate and sometimes visionary lyrics that became their trademark.
The band did eventually split up, and the break-up was announced at one of their last gigs: Newcastle City Hall on October 14, 1979.

The studio work predates the band's album sessions and is pretty boring; the live material, recorded in Newcastle mostly in 1979, is energetic and well played.
After Penetration, Murray joined forces with producer Martin Hannett's occasional agglomeration, the Invisible Girls; the 1980 incarnation that backed Murray on an LP included Buzzcocks drummer John Maher and future Sisters of Mercy/Mission guitarist Wayne Hussey.
Murray's singing is too bright and lively to handle the more downbeat material, but the band's ability to pattern exciting sounds around her brings out the inherent passion in her voice, and the soft but dense rock creates a mood of chilling agitation.

Bands like The Clash, Stranglers, Adverts and Wire were already changing their sound and outlook and getting more adventurous.
Penetration like may other bands were on the horns of a dilemma.
The fact was that they had missed the moment and as Punk became the past Penetration became stuck in a musical no mans' land totally dependent on their record company who didn't view Penetration as a long term investment and the band in a process of recording, touring and promoting.

 Fundus Photograph Reading Center - AREDS Reports
Because of increased penetration of the OCT probe light through atrophic neurosensory retina and RPE the choroid exhibits a well-defined area of increased optical reflectivity.
Retinal pigment epithelial detachments are identified by focal elevations of the reflective band corresponding to the RPE.
The lower scattering coefficient of the fibrovascular proliferation compared with blood allows for penetration of the OCT probe light through the entire lesion down to the level of the choroid, where attenuation of the choroidal reflection is typically noted.

 Nat' Academies Press, Probabilistic Methods in Geotechnical Engineering (1995)
Even if cone penetration resistance values were known at all points, the penetration resistance could not be predicted with certainty, since the actual location of the platform can be 20 to 30 m from the planned locations.
These values were then analyzed to yield an average penetration resistance at a given depth; the standard deviation was also estimated, to serve as a measure of the spatial variability of penetration resistance between points at the given depth.
To describe the uncertainty of the prediction using the probability model, a band of one standard deviation of total penetration resistance (corresponding to about 68 percent probability) and the central 50 percent band of the unbalanced moment were developed.

 UHF foliage penetration radar antenna - US Patent 6404377   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Good impedance match over a wide band was achieved by feeding each element with a tapered quasi-TEM slot line, which transforms a 50-ohm input impedance to a 120-ohm radiation impedance.
A UHF foliage penetration antenna embodying aspects of this invention is useful for radar systems to detect targets concealed in trees or forest.
To suppress grating lobes at the high end of the band, the element spacing is less than 25 cm, which makes it difficult to match the input impedance of the antenna at the low end of the band because the element is electrically small.

The infrared segment of the electromagnetic spectrum is divided into 3 segments by wavelength, measured in microns or micrometers (a micron = 1/1,000,000 of a meter); 0.076 ~ 1.5 microns = near or close; 1.5 ~ 5.6 = middle or intermediate; 5.6 ~ 1,000 = far or long wave infrared.
This band of light is not visible to human eyes but can be seen by special cameras that translate infrared into colors visible to our eyes.
Due to the deep penetration, over 1.5" into the skin, of the infrared rays generated by the Infrared Thermal System, there is a heating effect deep in the muscular tissues and the internal organs.

 Penetration of Microwaves Through Dispersive Concrete Using a Three- Dimensional Finite-Difference Time-Domain Code - ...
We investigate the effects of microwaves penetrating into conductive and dispersive concrete using the newly formulated algorithm incorporated into a three-dimensional FDTD code.
Sample one- dimensional FDTD calculations show that the penetration of wide-band and ultrawide-band microwave pulses must be simulated using the fully dispersive FDTD algorithm to obtain the proper response from dispersive concrete.
On the other hand, the use of the fully dispersive FDTD algorithm is not essential in simulating the penetration of narrow-band microwave pulses through concrete because of the non-dispersive nature of the narrow-band (single frequency) effect.
