Continental drift is the movement of the Earth ’s continents relative to each other. The hypothesis that continents ’drift ’ was first put forward by Abraham Ortelius in 1596 and was fully developed by Alfred Wegener in 1912. However‚ it was not until the development of the theory of plate tectonics in the 1960s‚ that a sufficientgeological explanation of that movement was found. |Contents | | [hide] | |1 History

SCIENTISTS FATHOM THE CHARACTERISTICS OF “ATLANTIC JET STREAM”‚ LINK IT TO MISERABLE SUMMERS THAT WERE EXPERIENCED IN UK AND WESTERN EUROPE. “It is a known fact to the people residing in UK and other parts of Western Europe‚ that we experience very unpredictable seasons and weather‚ throughout the year. But‚ what’s circulating in air among people of UK is about the miserable “Wet Summers”; that we have face. It was very depressing to our climate and weather prediction agencies for being incapable

Determination of the Acceleration Due to Gravity By A Good Student Abstract The acceleration due to gravity‚ g‚ was determined by dropping a metal bearing and measuring the free-fall time with a pendulum of known period. The measured value is 9.706 m/s2 with a standard deviation of 0.0317‚ which does not fall within the range of known terrestrial values. Centrifugal forces and altitude variations cannot account for the discrepancy. The calculation is very sensitive to the measured drop

and density occur. Troposphere The troposphere begins at the Earth’s surface and extends from 4 to 12 miles (6 to 20 km) high. This is the layer of the atmosphere in which we live. The height of the troposphere varies from the equator to the poles. At the equator it is around 11-12 miles (18-20 km) high‚ at 50°N and 50°S‚ 5½ miles and at the poles just under four miles high. As the density of the gases in this layer decrease with height‚ the air becomes thinner. Therefore‚ the temperature

model(Violatti‚3). This model accounted for every inch of the earth’s surface. He did this using a very unique technique. “He decided to mark off lines completely around the sphere parallel to the equator and at equal intervals. Then he marked off other lines at right angles to these spaced equally at the equator”(Violatti‚3). By doing this he resulted in a grid covering the entire globe. He also numbered each one of these lines forming longitude ans well as latitude(Violatti‚3). Overall Hipparchus was

the atmosphere closest to the Earth’s surface‚ extending up to about 10-15 km above the Earth’s surface. It contains 75% of the atmosphere’s mass. The troposphere is wider at the equator than at the poles. Temperature and pressure drops as you go higher up the troposphere. Q: Why is the troposphere wider at the equator than at the poles? The Tropopause: At the very top of the troposphere is the tropopause where the temperature reaches a (stable) minimum. Some scientists call the tropopause a

Swamps or Wetlands Biome Swampland is the most common type of wetland biome you will find. Most people see wetlands as not important or as a nuisance. In a wetland biome the water is always going to be standing still. You will find them in many low lying areas. It is common for them to be very close to lakes‚ rivers‚ and streams. They may have water in them all the time or only during particular times of the year. Plant matter is released into freshwater biomes from a wetland biome. The importance
