   Deci-
   `Deci-` (symbol `d`) is a prefix in the SI system of units denoting a factor of 10âˆ`1 (1/10). Adopted in 1795, the prefix comes from the Latin `decimus`, meaning `tenth`. Its most frequent use is in the decibel, used to measure sound intensity (relative to a reference) and many other ratios.

   Deciates
   The `Deciates` were a Ligurian tribe in the first few centuries BC. They lived in the Antibes area of what is now France, west of the river Var (Smith, ; Cosson, pp.20-23). The border with the Ligurian Oxybii being to the west of Antipolis and east of Forum Julii (Smith, ). The Deciates had a town in the area, `oppidum Deciatum` but this was not Antibes itself (Pliny the Elder, Chorographia, 2.69):

    decibar (dbar)
    a metric unit of pressure equal to 0.1 bar or 10 kilopascals. One decibar equals 75.006 torr, or 1.450 pounds per square inch (lbf/in² or psi). The decibar is often used to measure the pressure of seawater, because an increase of 1 decibar in pressure corresponds closely to an increase of 1 meter in depth.

    Decibel
    The decibel is the unit of measurement of sound intensity. In electronics, the decibel is a unit of measurement representing the logarithmic a ratio of two voltages, currents or power levels; used in telecommunications to express transmission loss or gain; defined as one-tenth of a Bel, hence the appropriate notation is dB, shown here.

    Decibel
    The `decibel` (`dB`) is a logarithmic unit of measurement that expresses the magnitude of a physical quantity (usually power or intensity) relative to a specified or implied `reference level`. Its logarithmic nature allows very large or very small ratios to be represented by a convenient number, in a similar manner to scientific notation. Since it expresses a ratio of two (same unit) quantities, it is a dimensionless unit. The decibel is useful...
