concentrations will only delay climate changes due to carbon dioxide.[57] In addition to their direct effect by scattering and absorbing solar radiation‚ aerosols have indirect effects on the radiation budget.[58] Sulfate aerosols act as cloud condensation nuclei and thus lead to clouds that have more and smaller cloud droplets. These clouds reflect solar radiation more efficiently than clouds with fewer and larger droplets‚ known as the Twomey effect.[59] This effect also causes droplets to be of

Water travels by different processes of evaporation‚ condensation‚ precipitation‚ infiltration‚ runoff and subsurface flow. When these processes occur water goes through different phases such as: liquid‚ solid and gas. Hydrologic cycle involves the exchange of heat energy‚ which leads to temperature changes. The process of evaporation where water takes up energy from the surroundings and cools the environment‚ however in the process of condensation water releases energy to its surroundings and warms

Hans Haacke and Mel Bochner. Hans Haacke created the “Condensation Cube” in 1965‚ as a structural visualization that was non-dependent on its location. Mel Bochner created the most recognizable and well-known protest artwork called “Measurement Room” in 1969‚ to symbolize the restrictions involved in architecture of any kind. Bochner wrote measurements on the walls to emphasize the dimensions of the location and Haacke made his “Condensation Cube” portable and thus‚ able to be displayed in any

breakdown molecules. Hydro means water and lysis means to breakdown. An example of hydrolysis in action within our bodies is how our body breaks down protein into amino acids. Water is used to break protein down in to its amino acids. Condensation- Condensation is when two molecules combine and form one bigger molecule. It is exact opposite process of hydrolysis. It is also called dehydration synthesis because water is removed “dehydrated” in forming of new molecule. This reaction happens in our

Paragraph on Water Water is a precondition of life. Besides various uses of water‚ it is mainly used in irrigation as India is an agricultural country. Water is a renewable resource. Life is impossible without water. Its uses are limitless whether it is in home or in fields or in industries. We get water mainly from rain‚ rivers‚ wells‚ ponds and lakes. Sea-water is almost useless for domestic or industrial purposes. India is said to be a Monsoon country. But the distribution of Monsoon rainfall

all the time. When a thunderstorm starts to occur‚ the air starts to cool as it rises. Cumulus clouds start to form as water vapor starts to condense. As condensation occurs‚ heat (latent heat/energy)‚ starts to release from the atmosphere and assists the thunderstorm in becoming created and grow. Soon as the thunderstorm is formed‚ condensation high in the cloud (now in the form of water droplets or ice) starts to fall to ground and be considered as rain. Thunderstorms can happen anywhere‚ at any
