INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) is the area encircling the earth near the equator where winds originating in the northern and southern hemispheres come together. Consequences of the ITCZ’s movement are the "monsoon seasons" that affect areas in the tropics‚ as well as the formation of tropical storms during the local hemispheric summer (north or south of the equator). Navigators in the age of sail learned to utilize the "trade winds" that blow to the east

Zone Routing Protocol in Computer Networking (ZRP) Abstract Routing protocols for mobile ad-hoc networks have to face the challenge of frequently changing topology‚ low transmission power and asymmetric links. Both proactive and reactive routing protocols prove to be inefficient under these circumstances. The Zone Routing Protocol (ZRP) combines the advantages of the proactive and reactive approaches by maintaining an up-to-date topological map of a zone centered on each node. Within

Grant Schumacher Paper 3 English 110 Final Draft Arts of the Contact Zone: Parody Assignment Pratt defines a contact zone by saying it is “social spaces where cultures meet‚ clash‚ and grapple with each other‚ often in contexts of highly asymmetrical relations of power‚ such as colonialism‚ slavery‚ or their aftermaths as they are lived out in many parts of the world today” (319). What this means to me‚ is that there is classrooms in which there are many differences‚ which creates a difficult learning

Crumple zones are one of the greatest innovations made with cars to protect the passengers in the event of an auto accident. Crumple zones cause impulse‚ or the change in momentum when an object acts on by a force for a certain amount of time. Though first‚ we need to know why crumple zones were made. An average of almost 1.3 million people die from nearly 5.5 million car accidents around the world annually. Along with this 20-50 million people are either injured or disabled in the wrecks. This

The concentric zone theory demonstrated by Ernest Burgess is a theory that might be a little dated. It used to be that cities would form around one central nucleus in order to make sure that all important things were done in that specific area and people would come to this center area to administer and watch whatever may be going on in the town circle‚ as you get further out to reach the factory area in the CZT. Today‚ cities don’t really follow that pattern as you would not want a cluster of factories

In Mary Louise Pratt’s words of “Arts of the Contact Zone”‚ a community is “held together by a homogeneous competence or grammar shared identically and equally among all the members.” (493) What she means by that is we all share the same traits.

Response to Question 1 According to Mary Pratt‚ “contact zone” is a term “to refer to social spaces where cultures meet‚ clash‚ and grapple with each other‚ often in contexts of highly asymmetrical relations of power‚ such as colonialism‚ slavery‚ or their aftermaths as they are lived out in many parts of the world today” (Pratt 487). In Pratt’s speech “Arts of the Contact Zone‚” she uses terms‚ such as autoethnography and transculturation‚ to help demonstrate the reasoning of her ideas. The main

shocking that worshipers took prayer and integrated it with meter. This common hymn meter allowed even the least artistic of believers to bring a tune to their prayers. However‚ this religiously based meter would not stay exclusively godly. Raised under an ultra-religious father‚ Emily Dickinson used her knowledge of common hymn meter to write secularly. This juxtaposition gave strength to her writings while still limiting her to the strict meter. Even with these restrictions‚ her poems continue to be
