Moisture and Atmospheric Stability

ZBTHS

The document discusses atmospheric stability and its relationship to moisture and weather. It defines stable, unstable, and conditionally unstable atmospheres based on environmental lapse rates. Stability impacts cloud formation and precipitation - unstable air leads to tall clouds and heavy rain while stable air suppresses vertical air movement and yields light precipitation. Daily changes in temperature and moisture content can increase or decrease atmospheric stability.

mojavehack

This document provides an overview of Earth's atmosphere including its composition, structure, and circulation patterns. It discusses key topics like the greenhouse effect, carbon cycle, climate zones, and factors that create suitable conditions for life. The atmosphere is divided into four main layers - the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere - each with distinct temperature characteristics. Atmospheric circulation is driven by convection, wind patterns, and interactions between air masses. Climate and weather are also influenced by feedback loops within the carbon cycle and factors like albedo that can both amplify and dampen global temperature changes.

9th Grade Chapter 3 Lesson 1

MRS.KDUNCAN

This summary covers key concepts from a lesson on weather: Weather describes the current atmospheric conditions at a place and time, while climate describes typical weather patterns over longer periods. Meteorology is the study of weather and atmospheric conditions using observation and physics to predict weather. Thermal energy from the sun drives weather by unevenly heating the Earth's surface, and water vapor in the atmosphere condenses to form clouds and precipitation. Factors like temperature, pressure, and humidity determine whether water vapor will evaporate, condense to form clouds and precipitation, or deposit as dew or frost on surfaces. Different types of clouds form depending on the height and shape caused by air movements.

Global warming

Junayed Roman

Greenhouses work by trapping heat from the sun through glass panels that let in light but keep heat from escaping. The greenhouse effect occurs when greenhouse gases in the atmosphere absorb and re-emit infrared radiation from the earth, trapping heat and warming the atmosphere. The major greenhouse gases are water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane, and CFCs. While the greenhouse effect makes the earth warm enough for human life, increased greenhouse gases are causing global warming and climate change that threaten ecosystems and cause problems for plants and animals.

It focuses on describing the layers of the atmosphere, including the exosphere, thermosphere, mesosphere, stratosphere, and troposphere. The troposphere contains most of the weather and clouds and temperatures decrease with increased altitude. The stratosphere contains ozone that absorbs UV radiation. The mesosphere is the coldest part while the thermosphere reaches temperatures over 1,700°C and protects the Earth from radiation.

DID YOU KNOWAs you might expect, the most humid cities in the U.docx

duketjoy27252

DID YOU KNOW? As you might expect, the most humid cities in the United States are located near the ocean in regions that experience frequent onshore breezes.The record belongs to Quiilayute, Washington, with an average relative humidity of 83 percent. However, many coastal cities in Oregon,Texas, Louisiana, and Florida also have average relative humidities that exceed 75 percent. Coastal cities in the Northeast tend to be somewhat less humid because they often experience air masses that originate over the drier, continental interior. A different type of hygrometer is used in remote-sensing instrument packages such as radiosondes that transmit upper-air observations back to ground stations. The electric hygrometer contains an electrical conductor coated with a moisture-absorbing chemical. It works on the principle that the passage of current varies as the relative humidity varies. GEOq^ •-it Earth's Dynamic Atmosphere sIWSe Moisture and Cloud Formation Up to this point, we have considered basic properties of water vapor and how its variability is measured. This section examines some of the important roles that water vapor plays in weather, especially in the formation of clouds. Fog and Dew versus Cloud Formation Recall that condensation occurs when water vapor changes to a liquid. Condensation may form dew, fog, or clouds. Although these three forms are different, all require that air reach saturation. As indicated earlier, saturation occurs either when sufficient water vapor is added to the air or, more commonly, when the air is cooled to its dew point. Near Earth's surface, heat is readily exchanged between the ground and the air above. During evening hours, the surface radiates heat away, and the surface and adjacent air cool rapidly. This "radiation cooling" accounts for the formation of dew and some types of fog. Thus, surface cooling that occurs after sunset accounts for some condensation. However, cloud formation often takes place during the warmest part of the day. Some other mechanism must operate aloft that cools air sufficiently to generate clouds. Adiabatic Temperature Changes The process that is responsible for most cloud formation is easily demonstrated if you have ever pumped up a bicycle tire and noticed that the pump barrel became quite warm. The heat you felt was the consequence of the work you did on the air to compress it. When energy is used to compress air, the motion of the gas molecules increases and, therefore, the temperature of the air rises. Conversely, air that is allowed to escape from a bicycle tire expands and cools because the expanding air pushes (does work on) the surrounding air and must cool by an amount equivalent to the energy expended. You have probably experienced the cooling effect of a propellant gas expanding as you applied hair spray or spray deodorant. As the compressed gas in the aerosol can is released, it quickly expands and cools. This drop in temperature occurs even though he.

1) An air mass is a large body of air that maintains similar temperature and humidity characteristics over a large area. Air masses form over land or water surfaces and take on the characteristics of the surface below. 2) When air masses move into new areas, they bring their characteristic temperature and moisture, changing the local weather. Where air masses meet, fronts form that can produce clouds and storms as one air mass pushes the air in another upward. 3) Different types of fronts include cold fronts, warm fronts, and stationary fronts. Cold fronts typically bring brief heavy storms and then clear, cooler air as warmer air is rapidly pushed up. Warm fronts bring gradual changes with cloudy skies and steady precipitation as warmer air slowly

Don't use any other text or article except this one. There are different theories of how to make the basic distribution. Among them are: 1. Scope and Role of Distributive Principles 2. Strict Egalitarianism 3. The Difference Principle 4. Equality of Opportunity and Luck Egalitarianism 5. Welfare-Based Principles 6. Desert-Based Principles 7. Libertarian Principles 8. Feminist Principles There are different theories of how to make the basic distribution. Among them are: Strict Egalitarianism One of the simplest principles of distributive justice is that of strict, or radical, equality. The principle says that every person should have the same level of material goods and services. The principle is most commonly justified on the grounds that people are morally equal and that equality in material goods and services is the best way to give effect to this moral ideal. The Difference Principle The most widely discussed theory of distributive justice in the past four decades has been that proposed by John Rawls in A Theory of Justice , (Rawls 1971), and Political Liberalism , (Rawls 1993). Rawls proposes the following two principles of justice: · 1. Each person has an equal claim to a fully adequate scheme of equal basic rights and liberties, which scheme is compatible with the same scheme for all; and in this scheme the equal political liberties, and only those liberties, are to be guaranteed their fair value. · 2. Social and economic inequalities are to satisfy two conditions: (a) They are to be attached to positions and offices open to all under conditions of fair equality of opportunity; and (b), they are to be to the greatest benefit of the least advantaged members of society. (Rawls 1993, pp. 5–6. The principles are numbered as they were in Rawls' original A Theory of Justice .) Equality of Opportunity and Luck Egalitarianism Dworkin proposed that people begin with equal resources but be allowed to end up with unequal economic benefits as a result of their own choices. What constitutes a just material distribution is to be determined by the result of a thought experiment designed to model fair distribution. Suppose that everyone is given the same purchasing power and each uses that purchasing power to bid, in a fair auction, for resources best suited to their life plans. They are then permitted to use those resources as they see fit. Although people may end up with different economic benefits, none of them is given less consideration than another in the sense that if they wanted somebody else's resource bundle they could have bid for it instead. In Dworkin's proposal we see his attitudes to ‘ambitions’ and ‘endowments’ which have become a central feature of luck egalitarianism (though under a wide variety of al.

Mass vaccination after a disaster: There was a natural disaster that occurred and has led to an infectious disease outbreak (your choice of one that is vaccine-preventable).
