This document defines key terms related to the atmosphere and its structure. It describes the five main layers of the atmosphere from lowest to highest - the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere. The troposphere contains 70% of the atmosphere's mass and is where weather occurs. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer. The mesosphere reflects sound waves. Above that, the thermosphere and exosphere experience increasing temperatures with altitude. Transition zones between layers like the tropopause and stratopause are also outlined.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
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.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2. Terms
• Atmosphere-The gases, droplets, and particles
surrounding Earth’s surface.
• Weather-Day to Day conditions of the
atmosphere.
• Climate-The statistical properties of the
atmosphere, including measures of average
conditions, variability, etc.
• Climatology-The study of long term
atmospheric conditions.
3. FACT
-The total mass of the atmosphere is equivelant
to 5.65 billion million tons.
5. Vertical Structure
• Troposphere-
• Lowest layer of the atmosphere. Where
almost all weather and organisms take place.
Decreasing temperatures. Depth= 8 to
16km(3.6 to 10 miles).
• It contains 70% of all mass of atmosphere.
The density of troposphere is decreases with
altitude. This decreases of temperature with
altitude is known as Lapse rate.
6. Vertical Structure CONT.
• Stratosphere-
• Second lowest layer of atmosphere. It extend
about 50-55 km above the surface of the
earth.
• Ozone layer is found at around 20 km from
ground is called Ozonosphere and act as a
protective layer against harmful ultraviolet
radiations.
• Temperature increases with altitude.(positive
lapse rate)
7. Vertical Structure CONT.
• Mesosphere-
• Third layer in the atmosphere. Decreasing
temperature with altitude(negative lapse
rate). Depth=Approx. 80km(50 miles).
• This layer is very special as all sound waves as
well as short radio waves coming from earth
re reflected from this layer.
8. Vertical Structure CONT.
• Thermosphere-
• The upper layer from mesosphere in
atmosphere. Increasing temperature with
altitude. Depth=Begins at 80km to 500km.
• Ionisation of elements like oxygen and nitric
oxide take place in the upper most portion of
sphere is called the Ionosphere.
9. Vertical Structure CONT.
• Exosphere-
• The upper most layer of the atmosphere is
known as exosphere. It extend up to a height
of 1600km from the surface of earth.
• The temperature of this layer is more than
1200 °C is Found.
10. ADDITIONS
• Tropopause-
• The tropopause is the boundary in the Earth's
atmosphere between troposphere and
stratosphere. Transition zone where the
temperature ceases to decrease.
• Stratopause-
• Top of stratosphere, the temperature increases
with altitude, and the stratopause is the region
where a maximum in the temperature occurs.
11. ADDITIONS CONT.
• Mesopause-
• The mesopause is the boundary between
the mesosphere and the thermosphere. Due
to the lack of solar heating and very
strong radioactive cooling from carbon
dioxide, the mesosphere is the coldest region
on Earth with temperatures as low as -100 °C.
13. Relevant Terms
• Homosphere-
• The lowest 80km of the atmosphere, which
the relative abundance of the permanent
gases is constant.
• Heterosphere-
• The high atmosphere where gases are not well
mixed but rather are stratified according to
weight. Where lighter weighing gases are
found.
