What are the highest clouds in the atmosphere? Where do continental polar air masses form? What atmospheric zone supports the biosphere? Which layer in the atmosphere contains the most water vapor and gases? Warm fronts are those that precede warm air masses, while cold fronts are the leading...
Roll clouds are rare, but by no means unheard of. They can form on the leading edge of cold fronts with just the right amount of humidity present. They tend to occur when there's not enough moisture to trigger rain or thunderstorms, but just enough water vapor to condense into an opaque...
Types of Weather FrontsA front is a type of boundary that separates air masses of differing densities; in addition, the fronts being separated will possess different temperatures and subsequently different humidity. In meteorology, there are four different types of weather fronts: cold fronts, warm ...
Make no mistake - walking the lofty path of commitment is the exact opposite of having one's head in the clouds! It means being grounded in a realistic obligation to the breed, to the sport, and most of all, to personal standards of integrity. WHAT IS A BREEDER? Webster's gives us ...
For example, scientists at the University of Colorado theorize that the decrease in sea ice in the Arctic could reduce snowfall in Colorado because Arctic cold fronts would be less intense. This could impact everything from farmlands to the ski industry. The most devastating effects, and also ...
Anticyclones are the opposite of depressions - they are an area of high atmospheric pressure where the air is sinking. As the air is sinking, not rising, no clouds or rain are formed. ... In summer, anticyclonesbring dry, hot weather. In winter, clear skies may bring cold nights and ...
destroying any number of inherited family relics.)I have never forgotten the peculiar odor of smoke from a big burn hanging in the air, the odd beige-orange color of the sky, how the smoke from a distant brushfire piles up in sullen beige clouds, and the peculiar deep roaring sound of ...
this will make the task of eventually making Russia a responsible international partner much, much harder. When clouds have cleared and the spectre of totalitarianism removed, we will need a Marshall plan for Russia. The long-term risk to international society stemming from the rape of Ukraine is...
above: typical zonal (red) and meridional (orange) jet stream paths superimposed on part of the Northern Hemisphere. Extreme meridionality can bring very cold air flooding a long way south from the Arctic while warm air is able in a different sector to force its way into the far north. Th...
When she woke the sun was struggling through the clouds, and she felt better. The stewardess opened the port-hole to freshen the air, and helped her to wash her face and smooth her tangled hair; then she produced a little basin of gruel and a triangular bit of toast, and Katy found ...
