a celestial sphere is an imaginary sphere of gigantic radius with the earth located at its center. The poles of the celestial sphere are aligned with the poles of the Earth. The celestial equator lies along the celestial sphere in the same plane that includes the Earth's equator. We can locate any object in the celestial sphere by getting to coordinates called the right ascension (longitude) and the declination (lattitude) so known as the celestial coordinates.

hurricanes and tornadoes

Tornadoes:

• they are often reffered as a twister or cyclone
• a dangerous, violent rotataing column of air that is in contact with both the surface of the earth and a cumulonimbus cloud

• tornadoes come in many shapes and sizes but are typically in the form of a visible condensation funnel whose narrow end touches the ground destroying everything in its path
• is often encircled by debris and dust
• the most extreme tornadoes can attain wind speeds of more than 300mph
• some types of tornadoes includes landspouts, waterspouts, multiple vortex tornado

multiple vortex tornado





waterspout





landspout


• less common in high lattitudes, frequently developed in tropical areas close to the equator
• tornadoes have been observed in every continent except Antartica

Hurricanes:

• a storm system characterized by a low-pressure center and numerous thunderstorms that produce strong winds and heavy rain

Earth Science per. 7

• water vapor is the most important gas in the atmosphere for understanding atmospheric processes
• the process of  changing state requires that energy is transferred in the form of heat
• when saturated, warm air contains more water vapor than cold air
• relative humidity is a ratio of the air's actual water vapor content compared with the amount of water vapor needed for saturation  at that temperature and pressure
• when the water vapor content of air remains constant, lowering air temperature causes an increase in relative humidity, and raising air temperature causes a decrease in relative humidity
• when air is allowed to expand, it cools, and when it is compressed, it warms
• four mechanisms that can cause air to rise: Orographic Lifting (mountain)      Frontal Wedging   Convergence   Localized Convective Lifting
• stable air tends to remain in its original position, while unstable air tends to rise
• for condensation or water to occur, the air must be saturated
• clouds are  classified on the basis of their form and height
• fog is a cloud with its base near the ground
• in order for precipitation to form, cloud droplets must grow in volume by roughly one million times
• the type of  precipitation that reaches earth's surface depends on the temperature profile in the lowest few kilometers of the atmosphere
• the Coriolis effect describes how earth's rotation affects moving objects. All free moving objects or fluids, including the wind, are deflected to the right of their path of motion in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Southern Hemisphere, they are deflected to the left.
• wind is the result of horizontal differences in the air pressure. Air flows from areas of higher pressure to areas of lower pressure
• solar radiation is the ultimate energy source for most wind
• three factors combine to control wind : pressure differences, the Coriolis Effect, and the friction
• cyclones : pressure decreases from outer isobars toward the center (from out to in)
• anticyclones are from in to out

Lopez,Amayrani period 7

1) I have done around five maybe but i was one of the students that arrived to this class a little late in the semester. I think my grade on these blog will be a B maybe lower becuase for some reason some of my blogs did not go through and i have no clue why!

2) I dont know about my final grade because i have done well on your test, i have A's on both the tests and i dont know what i will get on my blog so i dont know? On the tests i got  A's when we retook them in class so that makes my probabilities on getting a good grade on the final slim.

3) Three things i want to know about:
   Storms: i want to learn about tornadoes an how they form and come down to earth adn move around on earth.     about hurricanes besides that they are big tides that come and flood everything    about how snow forms
Space: i want to know why pluto isnt a planet any more   the other planets that have been found     and the milkyway and other happenings in space
Ocean: about the animals that live in the ocean   not just the animals but the plants that live there 

China uses it for bathing, Sweden and the U.S.A. use heat pumps and Turkey and Iceland use it for district heating.

There are three different types of metatypes of eruptions:
Magmatic eruptions: ~ well observed
                               ~ involve the decompression of gas within magma that propels it forward
Pheatomagmatic: ~ driven by the decompression of gas within magma, the direct opposite of the process
                               powering magmatic activity
Phreatic: ~ driven by the superheating of steam via contact with magma
There are also subtypes of eruptions:
Hawian: ~lava flows from the vent in a relitivly gentle, low level eruption
Submarine: ~ lava erupts over an ocean or sea
Strombolian:~ relitively low leved
                   ~ ejects cinder lapilli and lava bombs  at alltitudes of tens to hundreds of meters
Vulcanian: ~ dense cloud of ash
                ~ "like cannon fire"
Surtseyan: ~ takes place in shallow seas or lakes
                ~violent
                ~ caused by risiing basaltic or andesitic magma coming  into contact with aboundant shallow
                    groundwater
