Amplification (Audio Recording)

The process increasing of signal strength.

Amplification (Earthquake)

Most earthquakes are relatively small, in fact, so small that no one feels them. In order for seismologists to see the recording of the movement of the ground from the smaller earthquakes, the recording has to be made larger. It's like looking at the recording through a magnifying glass, and the amount that it is magnified is the amplification. Shaking levels at a site may also be increased by focusing of seismic energy caused by the geometry of the sediment velocity structure, such as basin subsurface topography, or by surface topography.

Amplification (Genetics)

Any process by which specific DNA sequences are replicated disproportionately greater than their representation in the parent molecules.

Amplification (Genetics and Genealogy)

An increase in the number of copies of a specific DNA fragment or the entire DNA molecule. See Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).

Amplification (Genome)

An increase in the number of copies of a specific DNA fragment; can be in vivo or in vitro.
See also: cloning, polymerase chain reaction

Amplification (Import Cars)

An increase in signal amplitude during its transmission from one point to another

Amplification (Microbiology)

An increase in the number of copies of a specific DNA fragment; can either be in vivo or in vitro. See cloning, polymerase chain reaction.

Amplification (Public Speaking)

The art of developing ideas by finding ways to restate them in a speech.
