This allows the real heating rate, which is a function of both spatial coordinates, to be replaced by an average.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Since the wave fields depend only on two spatial coordinates and time, the problem could be called 'two-and-half '-dimensional.
From theCambridge English Corpus
At the same time it captures the events and procedures of the spatio-temporal database together with the spatial coordinates, geometrical and topological properties.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In each quadrat, spatial coordinates of the trees were determined from the south-east corner using an ultrasonic distance calculator.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Now even relatively small amounts of particle inertia will render the particle velocity field a multi-valued function of the spatial coordinates.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The beams interfere, allowing the temporal coherence of the light to be measured at each different time delay setting, effectively converting the time domain into aspatialcoordinate.

The above experiments suggest that the response of color-sensitive neurons (which perhaps exclusively serve a visual function) is modulated by the sensed spatial coordinates of objects.
From theCambridge English Corpus
This apparent coordination with movements is surely one major reason to think of images as spatial, since motor control commands must be issued in spatial coordinates.
From theCambridge English Corpus
