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 of predicting accurate weather ahead”‚ said lead author of the study‚ Richard Hall. Fortunately‚ our scientists and researchers working at Sheffield University

At a granular level‚ rocks are composed of grains of minerals‚ which‚ in turn‚ are homogeneous solids formed from a chemical compound that is arranged in an orderly manner. The aggregate minerals forming the rock are held together by chemical bonds. The types and abundance of minerals in a rock are determined by the manner in which the rock was formed. Many rocks contain silica (SiO2); a compound of silicon and oxygen that forms 74.3% of the Earth’s crust. This material forms crystals with other

processes in the rock cycle. External processes include weathering which is the disintegration and decomposition of rock at or near earth’s surface. Mass wasting which is the transfer of rock material downslope under the influence of gravity. And erosion‚ which is the removal of material by a mobile agent‚ usually water‚ wind or ice.. These are all called external processes because they occur at or near earth’s surface and are powered by energy from the sun. If two identical rocks were weathered

Humans have tried to predict the weather for millions of years. Our ancestors monitored changes in their environment along with the behaviour of animals to help them predict the weather. Through development of our understanding‚ of the atmospheric patterns and the relationship to weather dynamics‚ today it is much easier to forecast a more accurate weather prediction. To better understand the mechanisms which control our weather and climate‚ we have to look at the Earth’s atmosphere. In particular

The humble washing machines have helped us save our time and energy to a large extent. Today‚ washing machines are the most sought mechanical devices in the modern society among all the consumer goods. Earlier‚ people had to soak their clothes in soap water for hours together‚ then scrub the stubborn dirt‚ rinse and then dry the clothes. Drying also took days together. However‚ with the introduction of washing machines‚ washing the clothes became easier. The machines would dry the clothes at least

Weather “ Weather is the condition of the climate in a particular place at a particular time.” The weather is all around us‚ all the time. It is an important part of our lives and one that we cannot control. Instead the weather often controls how and where we live‚ what we do‚ what we wear and what we eat. Someone who studies the weather is called a meteorologist. Weather predictions are made by forecasters who you see on television. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WEATHER AND CLIMATE Weather

Formation of Rocks The three main ways rocks are formed: • Sedimentary rocks are formed through the gradual accumulation of sediment: for example‚ sand on a beach or mud on a river bed. As the sediment is buried it is compacted as more and more material is deposited on top. Eventually the sediment will become so dense that it is essentially rock. This process is known as lithification. • Igneous rocks are rocks which have crystallized from a melt or magma. The melt is made up of various components
