The document discusses different types of clouds based on their formation, appearance and classification. It describes clouds being classified into four main categories of high, middle, low and vertically developed clouds. It further discusses ten different types of clouds that fall under cumulus and cumulonimbus clouds. Key cloud types discussed include cirrus, stratus, cumulus, nimbus clouds and vertically developed cumulonimbus clouds.
Resource conservation, tools for screening climate smart practices and public...Prabhakar SVRK
Natural resources continue to play an important role in livelihood and wellbeing of millions. Over exploitation and degradation of natural resource base have led to declining factor productivity in rural areas and dwindling farm profits coupled with debilitating impact on human health. This necessitates promoting technologies that can help producing food keeping pace with the growing population while conserving natural resource base and be profitable. Achieving this conflicting target though appears to be challenging but is possible with the currently available technologies. This lecture will provide insights into a gamut of resource conserving technologies, the role of communities in promoting them and tools that can help in identifying suitable technologies for adoption. The lecture will heavily borrow sustainable agriculture cases from the Asia Pacific region.
Outline
• Natural resource dependency and rural development
o Trends in resource depletion and impact on food production

The purpose of this paper is to highlight the general
terms and definitions that falls under the ‘common set’ in the
intersection of the sets Meteorology and Aerospace Engineering.
It begins with the universal explanations for the meteorological
phenomena under the ‘common set’ followed by the
categorization of clouds and their influences on the aerial
vehicles, the instrumentation used in Aeronautics to determine
the required Meteorological quantities, factors affecting aviation,
effects of aviation on the clouds, and the corresponding protocols
involved in deciphering the ‘common set’ elements.
It also talks about the relation between airport construction and
Geology prior to concluding with the uses and successes of
Meteorology in the field of Aerospace.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

How to Build a Module in Odoo 17 Using the Scaffold MethodCeline George
Odoo provides an option for creating a module by using a single line command. By using this command the user can make a whole structure of a module. It is very easy for a beginner to make a module. There is no need to make each file manually. This slide will show how to create a module using the scaffold method.
3. “A visible collection of CONDENSED
tiny water droplets and ice crystals suspended

Clouds can be in variety of forms.
Some are found at high elevation but other
are near the ground relatively

Clouds, snow and rain are all made up of
some form of water.

Generally produced by atmospheric motion with
upward component cools the air.
Clouds form when temperature is below the dew
point.
When air blows over the colder surface.

within it is warmer than the surrounding air by

10. Clouds are classified into a system that uses
“Latin” words to describe their appearances.
They are define on the basis of their
“Heights”.
This was done by an English chemist “Luke
Howard” in 1803.

11. HOWARD divided them into 4 categories
using Latin names as:

12. They are further divided into 4 groups having 10
types of the clouds:
GROUPS
HEIGHTS
High Clouds
5-13km
Middle Clouds
2-7km
Low Clouds
0-2km
Vertically Developed Clouds

The first 3 groups are differentiating by their heights.
The fourth group contains thick clouds as they are

16. They
are due to unstable atmospheric
conditions.
Height can range up to 12000m.
Generated most commonly either by
thermal convection or frontal lifting.
Releasing incredible amount of energy to
condensed the water vapor within the clouds.

19. Vertically developed clouds are more
conveniently divided into 2 categories as:
1)Cumulus Clouds
i. Cumulus Humilis Clouds
ii. Cumulus Fractus Clouds
iii. Cumulus Congestus Clouds
iv. Cumulus Constellus Clouds
2)Cumulonimbus Clouds
i. Cumulonimbus Incus Clouds
ii. Cumulonimbus Mammatus Clouds
iii. Cumulonimbus Calvus Clouds

20. They look like white ball of cotton _ isolated in sky.
Are sign of pleasant weather.
They have flat bottoms and lumpy tops.
Top often is in the form of towers--- shows the limit
of rising air.
Formation :
Rising air is associated with high relative humidity.
Generally they are formed by convection resulting
from solar heating in summers.
Over open lakes in autumn and winters.

METEOROLOGY

23. Humilis stands for “HUMBLE.”
Generally have flattened bases and slight vertical
development.
Mostly rises up to 5-8km.
Formation :
Once the thermals rise above the surface, the
potential for cloud development increases.
At the condensation level, the relative humidity of
the thermal air will be around 100 percent (saturated).
10/27/2013
METEOROLOGY

24. Between each cumulus humilis, the air descends slowly
to replace the rising thermals

26. Cumulus clouds that appear in irregular
fragments, as if they had been shred or torn.
Always appear in
association with other
clouds.
For a short time
before, during and a
short time after
precipitation.

27. They can form in fair weather as rising pockets of
warm air rise and condense into these proto-clouds

28. Congestus is Latin for "piled-up".
When a humilis cloud grows vertically
it turns into a congestus cloud.

29. It stands for “Castle-like”.
It displays multiple towers
arising from its top, indicating
significant vertical air
movement

31. These clouds are named because they are puffy
("cumulo") and because they often are dark clouds
which cause rainstorms ("nimbus").
Cumulonimbus clouds are characterized
as tall, dense clouds
These are more vertically developed than fair
weather cumulus and have tops that can reach up to
39,000 feet (12,000m).
These are fueled by strong updrafts that transfer air
up through the atmosphere.
10/27/2013
METEOROLOGY
31
32. Cumulonimbus clouds designs
its formation mostly during the
afternoon time, as this the time
when the earth surface gets
heated up.
Cumulonimbus clouds are
usually seen in the shape of
mushroom.

36. Incus stands for “Anvil”.
A mature cumulonimbus incus is definitely the
“King of Clouds”, and sometimes reaching 60,000 feet
in tropical and subtropical areas.
Formation always be regarded as a significant
aviation hazard because of :
“the powerful air currents involved in its formation and
the potentially damaging effect of the large hailstones it
may produce.”

38. They look like “BAG.”
Mammatus is one of the most spectacular and
distinctive of all cloud formations.
10/27/2013
METEOROLOGY
38
39. During a thunderstorm, warm, moist updrafts rise to
the top of the troposphere. Here the temperature levels
off and the air stabilizes. This causes the rising cloud to
expand horizontally over areas of cooler, cloud-free air.
10/27/2013
METEOROLOGY
39
41. Calvus stands for “Bald”.
Calvus occurs when convection and atmospheric
instability combine to push the cloud tops beyond the
congestus stage to heights of up to 30,000 feet.
10/27/2013
METEOROLOGY
41
42. The mushrooming top is a sign
of the vigorous updrafts that may
eventually force the cloud up into
the highest levels of the
troposphere.
At this level of the
troposphere, temperatures are
normally well below freezing, and
any condensation that takes place
will produce ice crystals rather
than water droplets.
This gives the top of the cloud a
brilliant, white appearance.
