The props turn slowly in unison—calibrating, calibrating—then spool furiously, a squadron of lawn mowers on deck.

Central-bank officials use monthly statistical releases to calibrate their economic forecasts that guide their rate decisions.

These measures are used to calibrate whether policy is loose, neutral or too tight.

By refining global biostratigraphic frameworks and calibrating species' evolutionary timelines, INA researchers transform fossils of coccolithophores into precise tools for reconstructing ancient oceans, linking modern plankton ecology with the geological record of climate change.

So precise is the production process, that even the machines used to produce the devices are made and specially calibrated locally.
