Clouds
What are clouds?
A cloud is a large collection of very tiny droplets of water or ice crystals. The droplets are so small and light that they can float in the air.
Why do clouds float?
A cloud is made up of liquid water droplets. A cloud forms when air is heated by the sun. As it rises, it slowly cools it reaches the saturation point and water condenses, forming a cloud. As long as the cloud and the air that its made of is warmer than the outside air around it, it floats!
There are 3 main types of clouds:
Cirrus or thin feathery clouds
Stratus or layered clouds
Cumulus or fluffy clouds
Cirrus Clouds
Are the most common of the
high clouds. They are composed of ice and are thin, wispy clouds blown in high winds into long streamers. Cirrus clouds are usually white and predict fair to pleasant weather. By watching the movement of cirrus clouds you can tell from which direction weather is approaching. When you see cirrus clouds, it usually indicates that a change in the weather will occur within 24 hours.
Stratus Clouds
are uniform grayish clouds that often cover the entire sky. They resemble fog that doesn't reach the ground. Light mist or drizzle sometimes falls out of these clouds.
Cumulus Clouds
are white, puffy clouds that look like pieces of floating cotton. Cumulus clouds are often called "fair-weather clouds". The base of each cloud is flat and the top of each cloud has rounded towers. When the top of the cumulus clouds resemble the head of a cauliflower, it is called cumulus congestus or towering cumulus. These clouds grow upward and they can develop into giant cumulonimbus clouds, which are thunderstorm clouds.
The Importance of Clouds
Clouds help regulate Earth's energy balance by reflecting and scattering solar radiation and by absorbing Earth's infrared energy.
Clouds are required for precipitation to occur and, hence are an essential part of the hydrologic cycle.
Clouds indicate what type of atmospheric processes are occurring (e.g., cumulus clouds indicate surface heating and atmospheric turbulence).
Clouds help redistribute extra heat from the equator toward the poles.

A "lunar eclipse" and a "solar eclipse" refer to events involving three celestial bodies: the Sun ("solar"), the moon ("lunar"), and the Earth. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Moon and the Sun, and the Earth's shadow obscures the moon or a portion of it. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking all or a portion of the Sun.
The solar system is made up of the Sun, the planets that orbit the Sun, their satellites, dwarf planets and many, many small objects, like asteroids and comets. All of these objects move and we can see these movements. We notice the Sun rises in the eastern sky in the morning and sets in the western sky in the evening. We observe different stars in the sky at different times of the year.
Mineral is a naturally occurring substance, representable by a chemical formula, that is usually solid and inorganic, and has a crystal structure. It is different from a rock, which can be an aggregate of minerals or non-minerals and does not have a specific chemical composition.

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.
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”.
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.

3. WEATHER is the state of the
atmosphere at a given time and
place with regard to temperature,
air pressure, humidity, wind,
cloudiness, and precipitation. The
term weather is restricted to
conditions over short periods of
time; conditions over long periods
are referred to as climate.
4. CLIMATE is the common,
average weather conditions at
a particular place over a long
period of time. We learn about
different climates around the
world. Deserts have a hot and
dry climate while the Antarctic
has a very cold and dry climate.
5. METEOROLOGY is the study of weather.
CLIMATOLOGY is the study of climate.
6. TEMPERATURE is a measure of the degree of
hotness of the air. It is generally highest in
the tropics and lowest near the poles. It’s the
measure of how cold or hot somewhere is.
9. THERMOMETER measures
the air temperature. Most
thermometers are closed glass
tubes containing liquids such as
alcohol or mercury. When air
around the tube heats the liquid,
the liquid expands and moves up
the tube. A scale then shows
what the actual temperature is.
10. BAROMETER
measures air pressure. It
tells us whether or not
the pressure is rising or
falling. A rising barometer
means sunny and dry
conditions, while a falling
barometer means stormy
and wet conditions.
15. HYGROMETER measures
the water vapor content of
air or the humidity. High
Humidity Indicates Warmer
Temperatures, While Low
Humidity Indicates Cooler
Temperatures
16. RAIN GAUGE
measures the amount of
rain that has fallen over
a specific time period.
Rain-Gauges indicate the
amount of Precipitation
that is released by the
atmosphere
.
17. CLOUD MIRROR
is used to measure the
percentage of cloud
cover. a cloud mirror
estimates the amount
of cloud coverage in
the sky.
19. WEATHER
SATELLITES
are used to photograph
and track large-scale air
movements. Then,
meteorologists compile
and analyze the data
with the help of
computers.
20. OUR EYES. These
are one of the best
ways to help detect
the weather. Keep an
eye at the sky and we’ll
usually be on top of
weather conditions.
22. WEATHER STATION is the place where all
data about the weather are being gathered
and evaluated. They are also the one who is
responsible in informing the people about the
daily weather condition of the country.
In the Philippines we also have our own
weather station. Do you know what is it?
24. PAGASA is a Philippine national institution
dedicated to provide flood and typhoon warnings,
public weather forecasts and advisories,
meteorological, astronomical, climatological, and
other specialized information and services
primarily for the protection of life and property and
in support of economic, productivity and
sustainable development.
25. WEATHER or CLIMATE
1. Cirrus clouds presently cover the sky.
2. Thunderstorm
3. Hot. Wet summer
4. Prolonged dry period
5. Cold month of February
26. COMPLETE THE STATEMENTS:
1. ___________measures the amount of rain that
has fallen over a specific time period.
2. ___________measures wind speed.
3. ___________ measures the water vapor
content of air or the humidity.
4. ___________ measures air pressure.
