meso (not comparable)

1. (sociology) In between the "macro" and "micro" levels of sociological structures.
2. (chemistry, dated, proscribed) Of a tactic diad, having structural units in identical orientation.

使用する際の注意点

"Meso" is mainly used in the field of urban sociology.

As the adjectives "racemic" and "nonracemic" apply to whole molecules, not structural units, the coordinate term "racemo" was considered misleadingly imprecise, and "racemo" and "meso" were formally proscribed in 2019; modern usage is to write just "m", formerly an abbreviation for "meso".
