Belonging to midday; occurring at midday; meridional. Noon The middle of the day; midday; the time when the sun is in the meridian; twelve o'clock in the daytime. Noon Hence, the highest point; culmination. In the very noon of that brilliant life which was destined to be so soon, and...
Water is an integral part of the global climate agenda https://wmo.int/media/news/water-integral-part-of-global-climate-agenda Heat stress and the labour force https://www.nature.com/articles/s43017-024-00606-1 Amid Earth’s heat records, scientists report another bump upward in annual carb...
Now, Erik has scribbled out a few more calculations, and come up with a whole new theory of dreams. The paper is “The Overfitted Brain: Dreams evolved to assist generalization“, it’s posted over on arXiv, and it’s not only fascinating: it’s accessible. This is not something you ...
"I also make my dog taketimeout in the backyard or another room away from my workspace for a least a couple of hours during the day," added Dr. Laing. Another piece of advice is to enrich thehome environmentto keep your pets entertained. "When it comes to your dog, the use of puzz...
The koala's nose is distinctive—it's a big black leathery rectangle in the middle of a round, gray face that's surprisingly soft to the touch. And every koala nose is unique.
Policies to encourage reductions in greenhouse gas emissions tend to stress the need to switch as many vehicles as possible to electric power. But a new study by MIT and the Ford Motor Company finds that depending on the location, in some cases an equivalent or even bigger reduction in emissi...
"We've known for years that Hsp70 acts as a chaperone to other proteins, ensuring that they assume the right structure and behave properly when a cell is under stress," said Cerione. "Heat shock proteins have also been implicated in cancer, although scientists have been trying to understand...
2.1.1. The Annual QSW The annual QSW is formed by an equatorial first baroclinic, fourth meridional mode Rossby wave resonantly forced by easterlies [11] (Figure 1a,b). During the annual cycle, the quasi-geostrophic equilibrium of the tropical basin results in the modulated components of the...
The WRF model exchanges variables atmospheric surface pressure, zonal and meridional surface wind, relative humidity, surface air temperature, shortwave and longwave radiation, and cloud and rain rate with the ocean model ROMS at every 10 min interval. At the same time, the ROMS model passes SST...
zonal and meridional winds, and ROS. We used the northwest ERA5 location (Figure 2) for our meteorological inputs because it is the primary weather stream, the most proximate to ignitions, and the closest to average domain elevation. The ROS time series is a sum of all gridded values ove...
