bilozogugu comma
160083/160000, the seascape comma, otherwise described as the undecimal hemifourths comma, is an unnoticeable 11-limit comma measuring about 9/10 of a cent.
It factors into simpler commas as (2401/2400)⋅(9801/9800).
Temperaments
Tempering out this comma gives the highly accurate rank-4 seascape temperament, which splits the perfect fourth, 4/3, into two intervals of 231/200.
Etymology
This comma was named by Tristan Bay in 2024, from the typical base-10 fractional representation of this interval bearing a striking resemblance of that of the landscape comma, 250047/250000, while only adding 11 to the mix of prime factors, and being of a relatively similar size.
