* Specific yield, a measure of aquifer capacity

* Specific yield or drainable porosity: a measure of the amount of water an unconfined aquifer will give up when completely drained ;

Specific storage ( S < sub > s </ sub >), storativity ( S ), specific yield ( S < sub > y </ sub >) and specific capacity are physical properties that characterize the capacity of an aquifer to release groundwater.

Specific storage ( S < sub > s </ sub >) and its depth-integrated equivalent, storativity ( S = S < sub > s </ sub > b ), are indirect aquifer properties ( they cannot be measured directly ); they indicate the amount of groundwater released from storage due to a unit depressurization of a confined aquifer.

Specific radioactivity S is defined as radioactivity per unit mass of the radionuclide:

* Specific heat capacity at constant pressure ( C < sub > p </ sub > or c < sub > p </ sub >)

Specific gravity is, by definition, dimensionless and therefore independent on the system of units used ( e. g. slugs · ft < sup >− 3 </ sup > or kg · m < sup >− 3 </ sup >).

Specific numeric toxicity values such as, LC < sub > 50 </ sub >, TDLo, and TCLo are noted as well as species studied and the route of administration used.

This is acknowledged by the American Institute for Conservation who advise " Specific admission requirements differ and potential candidates are encouraged to contact the programs directly for details on prerequisites, application procedures, and program curriculum ".

: Specific regions within a country or areas in dispute among countries, such as Kashmir, are not covered, but other areas of the world whose status is disputed, such as the Spratly Islands, have entries.

Specific weaknesses in the text include: it does not stipulate guidelines for the ' non-detriment ' finding required of national Scientific Authorities ; non-detriment findings require copious amounts of information ; the ' household effects ' clause is often not rigid enough / specific enough to prevent CITES violations by means of this Article ( VII ); non-reporting from Parties means Secretariat monitoring is incomplete ; and it has no capacity to address domestic trade in listed species.

Specific or personal coercion is the most commonly considered kind.

where ( Specific mutual Information ) is the pointwise mutual information.

Specific high-temperature mica-insulated wire and cable is rated to work for up to 15 minutes in molten aluminium, glass, and steel.

Specific examples of services which warrant the Purple Heart include any action against an enemy of the United States ; any action with an opposing armed force of a foreign country in which the Armed Forces of the United States are or have been engaged ; while serving with friendly foreign forces engaged in an armed conflict against an opposing armed force in which the United States is not a belligerent party ; as a result of an act of any such enemy of opposing armed forces ; or as the result of an act of any hostile foreign force.

Specific plot elements and features in The Hobbit that show similarities to Beowulf include the title thief as Bilbo is called by Gollum and later also by Smaug, the underground path into the mountain, and Smaug's personality which leads to the destruction of Lake-town.

Specific gravity is commonly used in industry as a simple means of obtaining information about the concentration of solutions of various materials such as brines, sugar solutions ( syrups, juices, honeys, brewers wort, must, etc.

The Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket ( VASIMR ) is an electro-magnetic thruster for spacecraft propulsion.

Specific impulse is a useful value to compare engines, much like miles per gallon or litres per 100 kilometres is used for cars.

Specific fuel consumption is inversely proportional to specific impulse and effective exhaust velocity.

Specific ultra-fast comparators, like the LMH7322, allow input signal to swing below the negative rail and above the positive rail, although by a narrow margin of only 0. 2 V. Differential input voltage ( the voltage between two inputs ) of a modern rail-to-rail comparator is usually limited only by the full swing of power supply.
