... The air just sit there and doesn't get stirred. ... Normally, the air is hottest near the ground and gets cooler as you go up. ... If it weren't for the temperature profile, convection wouldn't occur: Because the temperature decreases with altitude, cold air sits on top of hot air, allowing convection. ... The air above the ground is hot, the air above the water is cold. ... The land cools down faster than the sea, so the air above the ground is colder than the air above the water. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Bad Astronomy : The seasons are caused by the change in the distance of the Earth to the Sun. ... The change in distance of the Earth to the Sun is a very minor player. ... Well, not completely wrong; certainly the Earth's distance from the Sun has something to do with the temperature, but it is a relatively minor effect. ... Basically, the temperature depends only weakly on distance changes; the temperature goes as the inverse square root of the distance of the planet to the Sun...

... The storm began quite unexpectedly. The strongest geomagnetic storm for the last seven months began on Earth almost precisely at the same time as the solar eclipse reached its maximal stage, the culmination of which occurred at GMT 02:35 (06:35 Moscow time). ... Oscillations of such amplitude in the magnetic field have not been observed since October, 11th of last year, which is more than seven months ago. ... We can only add that the magnetic storm lasted approximately 9 hours. ...

... In this case, the main vortex in the Benard cell is decomposed into smaller ones as a result of ten perioddoubling bifurcations. It is shown that the resulting turbulence is coherent and determinate; the fractal character (local selfsimilarity) of its spectrum is found. ... It is shown that the real atmospheric turbulence is the result of mixing of different coherent structures. ...
