effect the precipitation‚ many urban areas experience heavier and more frequent rainfall‚ a greater amount of thunderstorms but reduced snowfall due to higher temperatures. Due to the effect of temperature the urban heat island effect generates convection‚ higher temperatures also cause lower pressures to develop. The pollutants in an urban area act as hydroscopic nuclei for water vapour which causes raindrops to form‚ all of these factors are associated with higher rainfall over an urban

Pluto’s Icy Heart Is Still Beating‚ Strange Polygonal Shapes Spotted Scientists have discovered that Pluto’s heart informally known as Sputnik Planum appears to be continuously youthful. It was emptied of impact craters and was seen speckled with mysterious polygonal shapes between six and 24 miles in diameter. The planet’s heart has no impact craters‚ which means that there is some kind of geological process that coated Pluto’s Sputnik Planum fairly recently. The broken frozen heart of Pluto might

day-to-day variations in temperature‚ air-pressure‚ wind‚ humidity‚ and precipitation meditated by the atmosphere in a given region. Climate: the result of long-term weather patterns in a region. Meteorology – the scientific study of the atmosphere Convection Currents – (vertical movement of air due to atmospheric heating and cooling) bring us day-to-day changes in our weather as they move in a general pattern from west to east. Jet Streams – veritable rivers of air‚ generated by earth’s rotation and

Plate tectonic is a scientific theory of Earth Science which basically defines the large scale motions of the atmosphere of the Earth. The Plate Tectonic theory is based on the continental drift concept The theory was first developed in the first decades of 20th century. According to the Plate Tectonic theory‚ the lithosphere breaks up into the tectonic plates. Currently‚ there are seven or eight major plates in the Earth. Generally‚ the lithospheric plates remain on the asthenosphere. All the

Introduction to Atmospheric Sciences (ATOC-210) Assignment # 5‚ due date March 19‚ 2009 Explain why‚ on a sunny day‚ an aneroid barometer would indicate "stormy" weather when carried to the top of a hill or a mountain? The higher you go up the more the atmospheric pressure decreases. With an aneroid barometer‚ there are weather related words printed above atmospheric pressure values. If you move up the top

Theory Plate tectonics is the theory that the outer rigid layer of the earth is divided into a couple of dozen plates that move around across the earth’s surface relative to each other‚ like slabs of ice on a lake. Plate Tectonics is cause by convection currents in the mantle of the Earth. This theory was originally called continental drift. The theory of “Pangea” that is the continents were connected was Alfred Wegener. The age of the sea floor is one good piece of evidence that very adequately

Pangaea: The Ancient Supercontinent Throughout Earth’s history‚ fragments of continental crust have floated across the planet’s surface‚ pushed and pulled by plate tectonic motion. At times in the geologic past‚ these fragments (what we may now call continents) came together to form one large supercontinent‚ only to be broken apart once again by tectonic forces. The cycle of supercontinent construction and destruction took hundreds of millions of years. The most recently created supercontinent

Toussaint L’ouverture Toussaint Breda who was later called Toussaint L’ouverture was born in Saint Dominique which is now known as Haiti. It was controlled by the French. Toussaint learned of Africa from his father‚ who had been born a free man there.
