Definition

  • In EnvThes a variable is defined aligned to the I-ADOPT Framework. It is a compound concept built by a property for an object of interest. For example, temperature (property) of air (the object of interest) results in the compound concept air temperature. As temperature can be measured in different media (e.g. water, soil, air), it is necessary to use compound concepts.
