Long’s Peak – Sunset Pictures of Clouds and Sunsets credit: David Evenson These pictures of clouds, nature and landscape are really inspirational.

Clouds are created when rising air, through expansion, cools to the point where some of the water vapor molecules “clump together” faster than they are torn apart by their thermal energy. Some of that (invisible) water vapor condenses to form (visible) cloud droplets or ice crystals. After cloud droplets form, one of two things happen. Either they collide with each other and grow by joining together to such a large size that they fall to the ground as rain or snow, or they evaporate and change back into water vapor. In any case the beauty is impossible to ignore and our Grand Architect surely has an excellent eye for design. Hint: Use “J” and “K” keys to navigate from picture to picture. New study finds geologic sequestration &is not a practical means to provide any substantive reduction in CO2 emissions& By Joe Romm on April 27, 2010 at 1:23 pm "New study finds geologic sequestration “is not a practical means to provide any substantive reduction in CO2 emissions”" Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has dug itself into quite a deep hole.

Costs remain very, very high (see Harvard study: “Realistic” first-generation CCS costs a whopping $150 per ton of CO2 “” 20 cents per kWh!). And nobody wants the CO2 stored underground anywhere near them (see CCS shocker: “German carbon capture plan has ended with CO2 being pumped directly into the atmosphere”). Now comes a new study in the Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, “Sequestering carbon dioxide in a closed underground volume,” by Christene Ehlig-Economides, professor of energy engineering at Texas A&M, and Michael Economides, professor of chemical engineering at University of Houston. Published reports on the potential for sequestration fail to address the necessity of storing CO2 in a closed system. The study concludes: Precisely. Logy Magazine. Dirección Meteorológica de Chile.

What is lightning?

Lightning refers to one of the several forms of visible electrical discharge produced by thunderstorms. It is essentially a giant spark that jumps between vast pools of positive and negative electrical charge that form inside thunderstomrs The primary forms of lightning discharges are cloud-to-ground (CG), cloud-to-cloud (CC), in-cloud (IC) and cloud-to-air (CA). Rare forms also include ball lightning. Elders Weather - Australia & World Weather Forecast, Live Bom Radar. 10 Rare Cloud Formations.

Det har vært bevegelser i leirmassene i rasområdet i løpet av natta.

Ingen får flytte hjem i dag, men noen kan få hente ting de trenger inne i husene i rasområdet på Byneset i Trondheim. Regionsjef i Norges Vassdrags og Energidirektorat, Kari Øvrelid sier at leira og jordmassene i rasområdet på Byneset i Trondheim har beveget seg i løpet av natta og det gjør situasjonen usikker. De gjør seg klare til å inspisere raskanten. Nye vurderinger – Først og fremst skal vi undersøke rasområdet grundig, sier Øvrelid. I samarbeid med Trondheim kommune skal de få satt opp en borerigg for å finne ut hvor ustabil leira er rundt selve raset. . – Vi håper at leira er stabil, men vi lar oss bekymre så lenge det skjer ting i rasgropa, sier Øvrelid.

There’s no doubt that the climate is growing warmer currently; indications of that change are all around us. Though climate change isn’t new, the study of how human activity affects the earth’s climate is. The exploration of climate change encompasses many fields, including physics, chemistry, biology, geology, meteorology, oceanography, and even sociology. At this Web site, you can explore scientific data relating to the atmosphere, the oceans, the areas covered by ice and snow, and the living organisms in all these domains. You’ll also get a sense of how scientists study natural phenomena—how researchers gather evidence, test theories, and come to conclusions. Your 2010 Atlantic Hurricane Season Tracking Map Source.

Storm Chaser Official World Homepage. Clouds Over Mount Shasta. You will often hear the expression, "Mount Shasta makes its own weather.

" How can a mountain make its own weather? The main answer is that Mount Shasta's presence causes air to be uplifted. All precipitation comes from clouds. Clouds are formed through the process known as condensation, which is typically caused by cooling. Cooling, in turn, is often caused by the uplifting of air. The term orographic comes from the Greek word oros, meaning mountain. Mount Shasta is known for its beautiful clouds.
