HadCM3 stands for Hadley Center Coupling model version three. This global climate model (GCM) was developed by the Met Office Hadley Center for Climate Science and Services in 2000, and was used as one of the major GCM ever since, starting from the Third Assessment Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 2001. The model includes two elements – HadAm3 (for atmospheric modeling) and HadOM3 (for oceanic modeling), therefore forming a coupling assessment model. The GCM was a further development of the previous model HadCM2, also developed at Hadley (Bloom, 184).

Introduction As a child, the mind is easily in awe and wonder about the simplest or most basic experiences. Experts argue that this may be the case because children’s brains are wired differently compared to when they grow up as adults. When children grow up, their brain physiology and chemistry change so as to accommodate other sections of the brain that are necessary for adulthood. Consequently, individual loses her child-like wonder when experiencing ordinary events as an adult. Therefore, childhood is a time when the brain focuses on allowing the child to develop by ...

Part 2. Recent and historical images of Mars

Historical Image of Mars. Website reference: http://www.fourthplanet.space/tag/christiaan-huygens/

Image info: Christiaan Huygens’ observational drawing of Mars shows a triangular feature which known today as Syrtis Major.

Telescope used: Huygens used a telescope created by himself (1655). It was a good 2-inch (5.1-cm) telescope of 10.5-foot (3.2-m) focal length and 50x magnification. (Sheehan)

Observer: Christiaan Huygens

Exposure time: Observations were taken over a number of weeks. Other relevant details: Huygens used results of his observations of Mars to measure Mars’ rotational period. He measured it as 24 hours (only one hour away from the rotational period of the planet recognized today). It should be noted that the most prominent and largest crater of the Mars was named after Huygens (14.0°S, 304.4° ...

Introduction

The issue of global warming has recently become more contentious. Ideally, a great debate exists among numerous individuals on whether it is real. According to MacMillan (Par. 1), the average global temperature over the past fifty years has risen at the most rapid rate in recorded history. In essence, the climate scientists connect the warming of the oceans and atmosphere, a strong decrease in the sea ice, and ocean level rise, among other climate-associated changes to the rise in the global temperature. The greenhouse gasses including carbon dioxide, water vapor, methane, and nitrous oxide contribute to global warming by ...

The countries and the world at large are facing many different crises currently. Different experts have come up with ways to predict the occurrence of different crisis in the near future. These predictions are important as they may give out information on how to prevent or overcome the crises, which mostly have adverse effects such as loss of lives or affect other crucial phenomena. I am going to cover predictions about climate change.

Summary

Climate change refers to the increment in global temperatures. There are several factors that lead to climate change such as natural events and human induced activities. ...

The issues of global warming, climate and weather have been discussed for a long time. Weather can be defined as the frequent changes in aspects as the wind, sun temperatures, and rainfall either on an hourly or daily basis. On the other hand, the averaged patterns in weather changes over a given period of time, probably a decade or more, can be described as climate. In the same context, global warming falls under the changes that have been impacted by climate over a long period of time by human activities and worsening environmental problems (Climate Modeling 101: Climate vs. ...

Introduction

There are several reasons why the annual Burning Man festival is unique among mass gatherings. Held in the Black Rock section of America’s Great Basin desert in Nevada, Burning Man’s 70,000 participants construct a city that houses—and in itself functions as—a participatory performing arts space, a communal spiritual retreat, and a cathartic experience of radical self-expression (Brill 2007). Then, one week later, they tear it all down, pack everything out, and leave no trace behind. It is an anti-market event (Cesewski & Giles 2007) whose participants rely on gift-giving and barter to secure any necessities ...

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which was established in late 2002 as a response to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001; folded over 20 federal agencies into one organization (DHS, 2016). The idea behind such a decision was that by putting, essentially the nation’s civil defense organization under a unified command, the government could more effectively identify, analyze and thwart any credible risks to the nation’s security. Naturally, in combining such a large number of agencies there were a number or redundancies and synergies that were established. Take for example, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) ...

Fingerprint analysis is the oldest and common form of forensic evidence and unique of each individual. There are two types of finger prints –patent and latent. Patent fingerprints are easily visible to the naked eye and are caused by inks, blood, oil or paint ("A Simplified Guide To Fingerprint Analysis", 2017). Latent ones are not visible to the naked eye and are caused by skin secretions like oil and sweat (Daluz, n.d.). There are various ways of experimenting the latent fingerprints depending on the surface, material, temperature and chemicals. Here we will study the effect of different temperatures (hot ...

The parable of the Sadhu is a lesson in corporate and individual ethics based on the experience of Dr. Bowen McCoy while hiking in Nepal. The experience of McCoy illustrates the nature of ethical dilemma in business as the Sadhu needs help; however, the individuals in the group only give enough help that they are not significantly inconvenienced by the Sadhu. McCoy compares the magnitude of assistance given by members of the group to the amount of ethical responsibility corporations have for their own ethical dilemmas and notes that the actions taken by members of the group were enough ...

Despite pessimistic evidence to the contrary, many people believe that our current episode of global warming is part of a continuing cyclical climatic process that has been occurring for thousands of years and is not caused by humans. This optimistic view is based on selective choices of research by the proponents of the “natural process” scenario and is not necessarily based on the collective global research of climate scientists. The results of this optimistic viewpoint could be that governments fail to take positive action to address the problem of climate change, resulting in our planet becoming uninhabitable. In discussing ...

[Due Date] Homeschooling parents are at times seen as isolated, self-centered, and reclusive. They keep their children away from the markedly valuable commonplace school, the environment where children acquire the essential knowledge and experiences that equip them with the required skills to successfully deal with civic and societal demands. Levin and Belfield (2003) report findings that “private schools produce more community service, civic skills, civic confidence, political knowledge, and political tolerance than public schools” (Ladd & Goertz, 2014, 222). However, it is incorrect to portray homeschooling as dispossession or removal of schools of their valuable purposes. It is widely known ...

The Greek philosopher Aristotle first led the discussions on the concept of genre in order to create a distinction between multiple works of text based upon their common characteristics. The word itself is a Latin derivative of genus. It implies a sense of definition that can be stated in common English as ‘the like of’. The word genre has went on to include a vast number of different types of text, music and visual medium since the ancient Greek empire. Specific words such as drama, essay, commentary, news etc. are now used to identify the specific nature of a ...

A general move to broaden the security agenda occurred during the 1980s by expanding the focus from the security of the state or the nation to an alternative focus on the security of the people, or the global collective. The human security can be affected by economic welfare, environmental concerns, cultural identity, political rights, and military issues. In recent years, environmental degradation is increasingly being considered as a security problem by not just the environmental activists but also the security establishment as they have become more responsive to the idea. In late 1989, the journal of the International Institute ...

Impact Testing of Metals

Abstract Impact testing of metal experiment was conducted by performing Charpy V-notch impact tests and the ductile-brittle transition temperature of the three metallic samples was established. Three samples of metals were studied ( 1018 hot-rolled steel, brass and aluminum) to assess the Charpy V-notch impact energy as a function of temperature and the ductile-brittle transition temperature. The DBTT for the sample tested were recorded as follows: -109F, 32F, 71F, 140F and 205F respectively. From the results obtained, it is evident that the fracture energy varies with the original temperature of the specimen under investigation. For Steel, the highest fracture energy ...

The crash of Air France 447 is considered the biggest disaster ever to hit Air France and Airbus since the beginning of their venture into this industry. All of the 228 passengers and crew of the flight were killed in this accident (Palmer, 2013). Due to the delay in the recovery of the black box from the ocean bed, the investigations and final report, published by BEA, took nearly three years for completion (Jonathan, 2011). The final investigation revealed that the accident occurred due to the inconsistent data indicated by the FMC (Flight Management Computer System) regarding the fluid ...

Chi-square

The chi-square test is used to compare the theoretical and observed frequencies. The chi-square distribution is not symmetrical, as normal or t-distribution. The mean and standard deviation can be calculated for the normal, t-, and Poisson distribution. However, there is no need for these parameters in chi-square distribution. The significance levels are applied the same way as in other distributions. However, for chi-squared tests only one-tailed tests are applicable. Therefore, the calculated value is compared to the critical value for the right tail of the chi-distribution. The normal and t-distributions are applied only to numeric data, whereas the chi-squared ...

It is hard to believe in the modern world of ubiquitous portfolios, but Walt Disney met one of the most important animators that he would ever hire in an ice cream shop. Disney had first been impressed by the lettering that the young Clark had done for the menus. When Clark left the ice cream shop, Disney took him on, telling him that the gig might be a temporary one. However, that turned into the longest temporary job ever, going all the way to 1975, when Clark retired (“Les Clark”). Given the vast amount of work that the Disney ...

Climate change, in contrast to what a surprisingly large segment of the public thinks, does indeed pose a significant threat to the way that we live. What makes a thorough understanding of the dangers of climate change is the fact that its effects are rarely large, one-time calamitous events, such as a terrorist attack; but rather slow persistent changes, like a small leak in a boat that, while dangerous, lull people into the belief that nothing is happening or that the situation is manageable. In addition, as Newton theorized in his third law, for every action there is an ...

The General Assembly of the United Nations has stated that “Changes to the climate, brought about by increasing levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, will thus lead to changes in the oceans, including sea-level rise and ocean acidification, which will put marine ecosystems and coastal communities at risk. Most of these changes can be attributed to human activities and will negatively affect the animal inhabitants of the marine environment. Some effects of global warming on marine animals include changes in distribution, reduction of habitats and reductions in diversity and sex ratios. In the last hundred years, the rate ...

Global warming and climate change are two different terms that have been used over the years to describe different phenomena. Global warming refers to a subsequent increase in the global average temperature (Black & Weisel 5). On the other hand, climate change refers to global climate changes due to increasing average global temperatures brought by changes in rain patterns, increased drought and heat waves. These future projections in the change of global rainfall patterns can be derived from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports over the years. The argument that the use of term global warming has been ...

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a type of neuromuscular disease that causes certain muscles to fatigue and weaken. The disease is considered to affect voluntarily controlled muscles such as those involved in chewing, facial expression, speaking, eye and eyelid movements and swallowing. The disease occurs in all sexes and age groups. However, it commonly affects women under 40 years and people aged between 50 and 70 years in both sexes, though it is known to affect older people at large (Sieb, 2014).

The air near the surface will usually become warmer throughout the day. This is one of the main reasons why it is unstable. Then at night, the air that is close to the surface will begin to cool. This is going to form a temperature inversion or a stable atmosphere.2. Inversions aloft are sometimes called “capping inversions” or “lids”. Why?

This is because it is like putting a lid on the atmosphere.
