| atmospheric | 1. Of or pertaining to the atmosphere; of the nature of, or resembling, the atmosphere; as, atmospheric air; the atmospheric envelope of the earth. 2. Existing in the atmosphere. "The lower atmospheric current." (Darwin) 3. Caused, or operated on, by the atmosphere; as, an atmospheric effect; an atmospheric engine. 4. Dependent on the atmosphere. "In am so atmospherical a creature." (Pope) Atmospheric engine, a steam engine whose piston descends by the pressure of the atmosphere, when the steam which raised it is condensed within the cylinder. <engineering> Atmospheric line, the equilibrium line of an indicator card. Steam is expanded "down to the atmosphere" when its pressure is equal to that of the atmosphere. (See Indicator card) Atmospheric pressure, the pressure exerted by the atmosphere, not merely downwards, but in every direction. In amounts to about 14.7 Ibs. On each square inch. Atmospheric railway, one in which pneumatic power, obtained from compressed air or the creation of a vacuum, is the propelling force. Atmospheric tides. See Tide. Origin: Cf. F. Atmospherique.

| atmospheric pressure | The pressure at any point in an atmosphere due solely to the weight of the atmospheric gases above the point concerned. (12 Dec 1998) |
| global stability | <ecology> The ability of an ecological unit (such as a habitat) or taxonomic unit to withstand great disturbances without being greatly affected. (09 Oct 1997) |
| second-stability region | <radiobiology> A high pressure region where the plasma becomes stable to the pressure-gradient-driven ballooning instability. The plasma is stable in the limit of small pressure gradients, becomes unstable at some intermediate pressure, and then becomes stable again at still higher pressures. Tokamaks operating in the second-stability region would be more attractive because the higher pressures (beta) would provide more fusion reactivity per unit volume of plasma, allowing smaller reactors to be built.

| stability | The quality of maintaining a constant character in the presence of forces which threaten to disturb it, resistance to change. (18 Nov 1997) |
| suspension stability | A very slow sedimentation rate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| suydam stability criterion | <physics> A criterion for the stability of modes localised arbitrarily close to a mode-rational surface in a circular cylindrical geometry. See: rational surface. (19 Jan 1998) |
| denture stability | The quality of a denture to be firm, steady, constant, and resist change of position when functional forces are applied. Synonym: stabilization. (05 Mar 2000) |
| detrusor stability | A detrusor that accommodates increasing bladder volume without significant increase in detrusor pressure and without involuntary detrusor contraction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dimensional stability | The property of a material to retain its size and form. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endemic stability | A situation in which all factors influencing disease occurrence are relatively stable, resulting in little fluctuation in disease incidence over time; changes in one or more of these factors (e.g., reduction in proportion of individuals with immunity from exposure to infectious agent) can lead to an unstable situation in which major disease outbreaks occur. Synonym: enzootic stability. (05 Mar 2000) |
| enzootic stability | A situation in which all factors influencing disease occurrence are relatively stable, resulting in little fluctuation in disease incidence over time; changes in one or more of these factors (e.g., reduction in proportion of individuals with immunity from exposure to infectious agent) can lead to an unstable situation in which major disease outbreaks occur. Synonym: enzootic stability. (05 Mar 2000) |
| enzyme stability | The extent to which an enzyme retains its structural conformation or its activity when subjected to storage, isolation, and purification or various other physical or chemical manipulations, including proteolytic enzymes and heat. (12 Dec 1998) |
| foam stability test | A test for foetal pulmonary maturity, determined by the ability of pulmonary surfactant in amniotic fluid to generate stable foam in the presence of ethanol after mechanical agitation. Synonym: shake test. (05 Mar 2000) |
