frequency and intensity of precipitation in the tropics are examined in climate model simulations. Under global warming‚ tropical precipitation tends to be more frequent and intense for heavy precipitation but becomes less frequent and weaker for light precipitation. Changes in precipitation frequency and intensity are both controlled by thermodynamic and dynamic components. The thermodynamic component is induced by changes in atmospheric water vapor‚ while the dynamic component is associated with

observing was called “NanoLight” this technology is basically a light bulb that takes less electricity and it gives off more light. I really liked this idea because of the problems we face in today’s society. With global warming and us leaving a carbon footprint in this planet the least we can do is try to reduce that footprint. A regular light bulb gives off 16 lm/W and this NanoLight gives 133 lm/W that is almost seven times as much light for the same wattage. With one NanoLight one can wave about
