We all have heard a meteorologist say there is a "30% chance of rain" on any given day, but what does this mean? The chance of precipitation or "Probability of Precipitation" (PoP) is a term used by meteorologists to help clients or viewers get an understanding for how likely a specifi...
Altitude, wind patterns, precipitation, and terrain also affect your ability to cycle more or less efficiently, thereby affecting your cycling economy for a given ride or race. Muscle Fiber Type A genetic predisposition to having more type I muscle fibers (the “endurance fibers”) will naturall...
Drought hazard is monitored by quantitative indices like standardised precipitation index (SPI) or similar that show anomalies in, for example, rainfall, river flow or reservoir level [10]. However, when these indices show that a drought is occurring, what effect the low rainfall or lack of ...
excavated in 2016, met all four conditions proposed by Miller and Smart (1984) for possible dung-related plant remains: (1) Shivta is located in the arid Negev desert (WSG84: 34.6307 °E, 30.8810 °N; < 100 mm mean annual precipitation) where the few trees growing are...
Additionally, rivers are vulnerable to global climate change associated uncertainties of precipitation and temperature patterns, which would worsen rivers’ hydrological conditions (Schneider et al., 2013). Show abstract A review of conservation status of freshwater fish diversity in China 2024, Journal ...
When precipitation occurs, these percentages typically approach 100%, which indicates full saturation. The thickness of the air tends to be greater with higher levels of moisture. Besides a general feeling of mugginess, these higher levels can also make warm or cool temperatures feel more extreme....
A cool climate with year-round precipitation and low evaporation results in the development of deep organic soil horizons under all vegetation types in perhumid Tasmania, even on steep slopes. These organic soils develop very slowly, with basal horizons that date back to the early to mid-Holocene...
we use "it's" as a contraction for "it is". We never use it for "it has". I don't know about the state of the language Down Under, but if the target audience is here in the US, the use of "it's" to mean "it has" will sound strange to too many in your target audience...
2.what qualifications do you require to become a climate scientist?Me or someone? Assuming you mean the latter, by qualifications I guess you mean beyond a relevant science degree? That is just a starter obviously that would be followed by original research and also obtaining a detailed familiar...
** The climate models show warming of the waters around Antarctica, creating more precipitation over the climate. This precipitation falls and remains as snow or ice, and is unlikely to melt even at very high numbers for global warming as Antarctica is so freaking cold to begin with. ...
