These anti-airborne measures consisted of planting a large number of mines to create minefields as well as the erection of wire-braced poles up to two metres in height, a great many of which were laced with mines or other booby-traps aimed at destroying gliders and killing or wounding airborne troops.

These tasks had been achieved despite the problems caused by a large number of the airborne troops being scattered throughout the operational area assigned to the division due to a combination of bad weather and poor navigation on the part of the pilots of the transport aircraft carrying them.

These early combat experiences demonstrated that standard weapons were not ideal for airborne operations.

These birds require a great deal of effort to become airborne, pedaling across the water with their feet before lifting off.

These missions include airborne, air assault, and direct action operations, raids, infiltration and exfiltration by air, land or sea in addition to airfield seizure, recovery of personnel and special equipment, and support of general purpose forces ( GPF ).

These airborne troops then seized the Knollwood Army Auxiliary Airfield from the defending troops and secured the area in which the rest of the division landed, all before daylight.

These include infantry, armor, cavalry, airborne, artillery and ( if the PA qualifies ) Special Forces units.

These forces included tank, artillery and airborne forces.

These include one logistics brigade, an infantry brigade, an airborne brigade, special forces ( Takavar ) brigades, and five artillery brigades / regiments.

These airborne and special forces troops are said to train together at Shiraz.

These were the invasion of Sicily ( Operation HUSKY, 9-13 JUL 1943 ), 1st Air Commando Group in Burma ( Operation THURSDAY, MAR-MAY 1944 ), Normandy invasion ( Operation NEPTUNE ( airborne phase of Operation OVERLORD, 6-8 JUN 1944 ), invasion of southern France ( Operation DRAGOON, 15 AUG 1944 ), invasion of Netherlands ( Operation MARKET, airborne phase of MARKET-GARDEN, 17-23 SEP 1944 ), re-supply of Bastogne ( a flight on 25 DEC 1944 and Operation REPULSE, 26-27 DEC 1944 ), Rhine River crossing at Wesel ( Operation VARSITY, 24 MAR 1945 ), and finally, at Aparri, Luzon, PI ( Operation GYPSY, 23 JUN 1945 ).

These specialized medical exams consist of physical examinations performed by an Aviation Medical Examiner or a military Flight Surgeon, doctors trained to screen potential aircrew for identifiable medical conditions that could lead to problems while performing airborne duties.

These smaller ABC engine have the distinction of being possibly the first airborne APUs-the Coastal class blimp ( first flown in 1916 ) had a 1. 5-horsepower unit installed to provide electricity for the onboard wireless set, whilst a similar engine was used to power the searchlight of the Supermarine Nighthawk ' Zeppelin killer ' of 1917.

These maneuvers were executed by a task force of the Pleiku sector departing from Pleiku, two task forces of the 22d Infantry Division departing from Qui Nhơn, and a task force of two airborne battalions heliborne into northern An Khê and attacking south with Task Force Alpha of the marines brigade conducting the linkup.

These ions attach to airborne particles which are then electrostatically attracted to a charged collector plate.

These were developed for use as airborne auxiliary power units for large aircraft and they were also used as a ground starter unit in the British services.

These fuel cenospheres indicated a combustion source using injected droplets of fuel or the open burning of heavy liquid fuels such as asphalt or a thermoplastic material that were bubbling as they burned ; the bursting of the bubbles created airborne droplets of fuel.

These were excavated into a smooth leveled surface in the bedrock or created through the removal of vegetation and soil.

These are then taken up by organisms in the soil, react with mineral soil, or are transported beyond the confines of the ecosystem ( and are considered " lost " to it ).

These two layers form a protective mat over the soil that absorbs the impact of rain drops.

These plant communities cover approximately 9. 4 percent of the Earth's surface ( or 30 percent of total land area ), though they once covered much more ( about 50 percent of total land area ), in many different regions and function as habitats for organisms, hydrologic flow modulators, and soil conservers, constituting one of the most important aspects of the biosphere.

These indices are used for estimation of other engineering properties and for soil classification.

These endospores, embedded in soil, were the cause of unexplained " spontaneous " outbreaks of anthrax.

These valleys were fertile because the soil there was rich and could bear lots of root crops.

These organisms are also common in soil and play a vital role in ammonia oxidation.

These reports contain all environmental protection measures performed by airport administration in terms of water, air, soil and noise pollution, resource conservation and protection of natural life around the airport.

These determine the aeration of the soil and the ability of water to infiltrate and to be held in the soil.

These " candles " offer foresters a means to evaluate fertility of the soil and vigour of the trees.

These stations transmit parameters necessary for decision-making to a base station: air temperature and relative humidity, precipitation and leaf wetness ( for disease prediction models ), solar radiation and wind speed ( to calculate evapotranspiration ), water deficit stress ( WDS ) leaf sensors and soil moisture ( crucial to irrigation decisions ).

* Surface roots: These proliferate close below the soil surface, exploiting water and easily available nutrients.

These include a soil conservation center, livestock farm and a potato research farm.

These people were not Germanizable in his eyes ; only the soil was.

These include: absorbing rainfall, reducing evaporation, providing nutrients, increasing organic matter in the soil, feeding and creating habitat for soil organisms, suppressing weed growth and seed germination, moderating diurnal temperature swings, protecting against frost, and reducing erosion.

These terms are commonly used in chemistry, biochemistry, soil science, and the biological sciences.

These constructed artificial wetland systems are highly controlled environments that intend to mimic the occurrences of soil, flora, and microorganisms in natural wetlands to aid in treating wastewater effluent.

These contrasting topography and soil conditions affected the industrial and residential development patterns within the city.

These plants grow in nutrient-poor, often acidic soil and use the insects as a nutritional supplement.

These settlers were German Catholics who emigrated from the Westphalia region cities of Wimbach, Meerhof, and Hesse, Germany, among others, and found the rich soil ideal for farming.
