HROs are gelatinous at room temperature, but at the high temperatures found in die casting, they form a thin film. Other substances are added to control the viscosity and thermal properties of these emulsions, e.g.

The sea state can either be assessed by an experienced observer, like a trained mariner, or through instruments like weather buoys, wave radar or remote sensing satellites. In case of buoy measurements, the statistics are determined for a time interval in which the sea state can be considered to be constant. This duration has to be much longer than the individual wave period, but smaller than the period in which the wind and swell conditions vary significantly. Typically, records of one hundred to one thousand wave-periods are used to determine the wave statistics.

Although publishing and distributing European comics dates back to a longer period of time than of American comics (see previous chapters), since the early 1990s most of these comics could not reach the popularity of superhero comics. From the mid nineties to 2004 German Mosaik was the only major European comic book title published in the country. Today many Francophone albums are published in Hungarian, but their print numbers range from a few hundred to one or two thousand. The future of these titles depends much on the enthusiasm and dedication of the editor and publisher.

Fly ash dust can be deposited on topsoil increasing the pH and affecting the plants and animals in the surrounding ecosystem. Trace elements, such as, iron, manganese, zinc, copper, lead, nickel, chromium, cobalt, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury, can be found at higher concentrations compared to bottom ash and the parent coal. Fly ash can leach toxic constituents that can be anywhere from one hundred to one thousand times greater than the federal standard for drinking water. Fly ash can contaminate surface water through erosion, surface runoff, airborne particles landing on the water surface, contaminated ground water moving into surface waters, flooding drainage, or discharge from a coal ash pond.

By 1969 the single-track lines remained, and a year later machines replaced the conductors on all routes. Thus, during the period from 1963 to 1970 the company almost doubles the length of the paths increases from 36 to 64 km, the number of employees from five hundred to one thousand, the number of trams 104 (1965) up to 152 and is growing almost three times the number carried per year passenger — from 38.6 million to 100 million in 1976. The opening of trolleybus movement in 1968 slowed the development of the tram: since the launch of high-speed trams in 1982 right-of-way, the current increased to 75.5 km, there is no change, the last route was opened in 1988 and since then, new routes appeared. In 1985 Poljakova celebrated the history of the tram service, then conducted the test with three-car trains.
