fall are called hailstorms. Thunderstorms may line up in a series or rainband‚ known as a squall line. Strong or severe thunderstorms may rotate‚ known as supercells. While most thunderstorms move with the mean wind flow through the layer of the troposphere that they occupy‚ vertical wind shear causes a deviation in their course at a right angle to the wind shear direction. Thunderstorms result from the rapid upward movement of warm‚ moist air. They can occur inside warm‚ moist air masses and at

the problem and preserve the ozone layer. Ozone is a pale blue gaseous form of oxygen‚ in chemical form it is also known as O3. Ozone can be beneficial or harmful depending on its location in the Earth’s atmosphere. If the ozone is located in the troposphere (which extends from the surface of the Earth up to approxiametly10 miles) it is a harmful pollutant and a major component in smog and other environmental health problems. Such tropospheric ozone can damage plastic‚ rubber‚ plant and animal tissue

The Effect of Global Warming on Thermohaline Circulation Kabir Rao1 [1] Industrial activities‚ such as fossil fuel burning and other human activities such as tropical deforestation have increased greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. Increasing global temperatures are likely to have extreme effects on global climate and may result in species extinction‚ changes in agricultural production and deleterious effects on health. Studies have been conducted in recent years on the effects

LIGHTNING Lightning is a massive electrostatic discharge caused by unbalanced electric charges in the atmosphere‚ and resulting in a strike‚ from a cloud to itself‚ a cloud to a cloud or a cloud to ground‚ and accompanied by the loud sound of thunder. A typical cloud to ground lightning strike jumps a 5 km (3 mi) gap through the air.[1] A typical thunderstorm has three or more strikes per minute at its peak.[2] Lightning is usually produced by cumulonimbus clouds based 5–6 km (3-4 mi) above the

One of the environmental problems today is air pollution. Air pollution is a mixture of solid particles and gases in the air (). Air pollution not only hit local but‚ is a major quality problem all over the world. Some of the main issues in Georgia are pollen‚ car emission‚ company pollution‚ and chemical waste. In the county I resided in pollen and emission is the high rated problem. The problem with air pollution is affecting the lives on earth causing health problems. I personal never had issues

“The Greenhouse Effect” Introduction: The "greenhouse effect" is widely discussed in the media‚ and although its details are complicated‚ its principles are not difficult to understand. Without a greenhouse effect‚ radiation from the Sun (mostly in the form of visible light) would travel to Earth and be changed into heat‚ only to be lost to space. This scenario can be sketched as follows: Sun’s radiation → absorbed by Earth → Re-radiated to space as heat The greenhouse effect is a process where

Checking out the weather report is a daily activity for many of us. At the very least‚ we want to know how hot or cold it will get‚ or whether there will be rain or snow. Some of us live in places where severe weather can produce dangerous conditions -- flooding‚ tornados‚ blizzards or fogs‚ so we pay attention to weather related warnings. And these days‚ weather reports are getting more sophisticated‚ with pollen counts and particulates for allergy sufferers‚ and UV indices to tell you whether you
