Systematic error
1 - An error which, for known changes in field conditions, undergoes proportional changes in magnitude and which, for unchanging conditions, remains unchanged, both in sign and magnitude. Because in given conditions, the sign of a systematic error remains the same, the separate errors in a series of measurements will be cumulative in their total ef.....
