An ocean (from Ancient Greek Ὠκεανός, transc. Okeanós, the sea of classical antiquity[1]) is a body of saline water that composes much of a planet's hydrosphere.[2] On Earth, an ocean is one of the major conventional divisions of the World Ocean, which covers almost 71% of its surface. These are, in descending order by area, the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern (Antarctic), and Arctic Oceans.[3][4] The word sea is often used interchangeably with "ocean" in American English but, strictly speaking, a sea is a body of saline water (generally a division of the world ocean) partly or fully enclosed by land.[5]
this is one of my projects that I had made for my class X holiday homework, I hope this can help you gain some information about tsunamis and if you also want to make a project like this, I hope I have helped you. - mansvini
Thunderstorms are most likely to occur in the spring and summer months and during the afternoon and evening hours, but they can occur year-round and at all hours. Thunderstorms frequently occur in the late afternoon and at night in the Plains states. This module highlights the basics of thunderstorms.

All About Volcanoes
Volcanoes are remarkable geological structures formed by the eruption of molten rock, ash, and gases from the Earth's mantle. These natural phenomena can shape landscapes, create new landforms, and significantly impact both the environment and human societies. Understanding volcanoes involves exploring their types, formation processes, eruption mechanisms, and effects.
What is a Volcano?
A volcano is an opening in the Earth's crust through which magma, gases, and ash are expelled. When magma reaches the surface, it is called lava. Over time, repeated eruptions can build up a mountain or other landform around the volcanic vent.
Types of Volcanoes:
Shield Volcanoes:
Characteristics: Broad, gently sloping sides formed by the flow of low-viscosity basaltic lava that can travel long distances.
Examples: Mauna Loa and Kilauea in Hawaii.
Composite Volcanoes (Stratovolcanoes):
Characteristics: Steep, conical volcanoes made up of alternating layers of lava, ash, and volcanic debris. They are known for their explosive eruptions.
Examples: Mount Fuji in Japan, Mount St. Helens in the USA, and Mount Vesuvius in Italy.
Cinder Cone Volcanoes:
Characteristics: Small, steep-sided cones built from volcanic fragments such as ash, tephra, and volcanic rocks ejected during eruptions.
Examples: Parícutin in Mexico and Sunset Crater in the USA.
Lava Domes:
Characteristics: Rounded, steep-sided mounds formed by the slow extrusion of viscous lava.
Examples: Mount St. Helens’ Lava Dome in the USA.
Volcanic Features:
Crater:
Description: A bowl-shaped depression at the summit of a volcano, typically formed by explosive eruptions.
Caldera:
Description: A large depression formed when a volcano's summit collapses or is blown away during a massive eruption.
Examples: Yellowstone Caldera in the USA.
Lava Flows:
Description: Streams of molten rock that pour from a volcanic vent and solidify as they cool.
Pyroclastic Flows:
Description: Fast-moving currents of hot gas and volcanic material that can travel down the sides of a volcano during explosive eruptions.
Volcanic Ash:
Description: Fine particles of pulverized rock and glass created during volcanic eruptions that can travel long distances.
Formation of Volcanoes:
Subduction Zones:
Description: Volcanoes often form at convergent plate boundaries where an oceanic plate subducts beneath a continental plate, leading to magma formation.
Examples: The Ring of Fire around the Pacific Ocean.
Rift Zones:
Description: Volcanoes can also form at divergent plate boundaries where tectonic plates are pulling apart, allowing magma to rise.
Examples: Mid-Atlantic Ridge and East African Rift.
Hotspots:
Description: Volcanic activity that occurs away from plate boundaries, caused by plumes of hot material rising from deep within the mantle.
Examples: Hawaiian Islands and Yellowstone.
A volcano is a rupture in the crust of a planetary-mass object, such as Earth, that allows hot lava, volcanic ash, and gases to escape from a magma chamber below the surface.
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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
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.

Volcano
1. VOLCANO: BOOM.
Melted Rocks burst out of a volcano
Fiery Lava tumbling down the side,
Smoking & choking quickly, Misty murky steam
Burning trees, leaves, Houses and all the things.Presented By: Suchi Bansal

2. WHAT IS A VOLCANO?
A Volcano is a mountain that opens downward to a pool of molten rock
(magma) below the Earth’s surface and hot lava, volcanic ash, gases escape
from a magma chamber to the surface of the Earth.
DID YOU KNOW?
Fresh lava ranges from 1,300° to 2,200° F (700° to 1,200° C) in
temperature and glows red hot to white hot as it flows.
Q. Why is Volcano called a Volcano?
The name "volcano" has its origin from the
name of Vulcan, a God of fire in Roman
mythology.
Q. Can volcanoes occur
under water?
Volcanoes can erupt under
water and form new islands
from the cooled lava.

4. •Extinct volcano is the one which has not
erupted for at least 10,000 years and is
not expected to erupt again in a
comparable time scale of the future.
•Dormant Volcano is the one that has not
erupted in last 2000 years but is supposed
to erupt again in the future.
•Volcano that has erupted in the recent
past and is likely to erupt again in the
future is called Active Volcano.
TYPES OF VOLCANO
ACTIVE, DORMANT AND EXTINCT VOLCANOES
5. WORLD’S LARGEST VOLCANO
MAUNA Loa: Hawai'i Big Island
• It is an active shield Volcano. It is also the highest mountain on earth.
• When measured from the base to the top, the pile of lavas measures more than 17,000 m.
• Mauna Loa is one of five subaerial volcanoes that make up the island of Hawaiʻi.
• It is constructed by countless lava flows. Lava eruptions from Mauna Loa are silica-poor
and very fluid, and they tend to be non-explosive.
• Mauna Loa's 1942 eruption occurred four months after the attack on Pearl Harbor and the
United States' entry into World War II. U.S. military planes dropped bombs in attempts to
divert the path of lava flows.
6. SOLAR SYSTEM’S LARGEST VOLCANO
OLYMPUS MONS: On MARS
• It is also the largest mountain of the solar system.
• Olympus Mons is a shield volcano that stands as tall as 26 km(26000 metres). That makes it
3 times the height of Mt. Everest.
• Olympus Mons is the result of many thousands of basaltic lava flows.
• The extraordinary size of the volcano is due to the lack of tectonic plate movement on
Mars. The lack of movement allows the Martian crust to remain fixed in place and so the lava
gets accumulated.

VOLCANOES IN INDIA
8. •The first recorded eruption of the volcano
dates back to 1787.
•The 1991 eruption was particularly
harmful to the island's fauna. The report
found that the eruption had reduced the
number of bird species and their
population. The team only observed 6 of
the 16 known species of birds on the
island.
•Barren island is also the only
confirmed active volcano in South Asia.
•It is uninhabited by humans, though it has
a small population of goats, birds, bats and
a few rodent species such as rats survive
the harsh conditions of the Island.
•The waters surrounding Barren Island are
reputed to be among the world's top scuba
diving destinations.
Barren Island in the Andaman and Nicobar
islands has India’s only live volcano, erupting once
again in 2017 but small gas and ash eruptions were
also encountered in 2019,2020.
9. PACIFIC RING OF FIRE
The Ring of Fire is a major area in the Pacific Ocean where a large number
of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur.
It has 452 volcanoes (more than 75% of the world's active and dormant volcanoes).
The Ring of Fire is sometimes called the circum-Pacific belt.
10. DEADLIEST OCCURRENCES
KRAKATOA in INDONESIAIN 1883
• The eruption resulted in about 36000 deaths and devastating tsunami.
• It destroyed the island of Krakatoa.
MOUNTTAMBORAIN INDONESIAIN 1815
• The eruption resulted in 70000-90000 human deaths.
• All vegetation on the island was destroyed.
• Uprooted trees, mixed with pumice ash, washed into the sea
• It was so massive that it resulted in average global
temperature drop by around 1 Degree Celcius.
• Prior small eruptions followed by this massive eruption
made 1816 to be known as the Year Without a Summer. Now
that is something big!!!
