In brief, the ''temperature value'' (also called ''B factor'') for an atom in a [[X-ray crystallography|crystallographic]] model is a measure of the uncertainty of the position of that atom. (For more, see [[Temperature value]].) The [[resolution]] is an average measure of the uncertainty for all atoms in the model. Results from a very small sample, below, suggest that the average temperature value is positively correlated with the resolution.
