Chinese medicine influenced modern day medicine, as well as advancing their own knowledge y inventing and discovering. Firstly, Chinese medicine was a system created 3,000 years ago. Through medieval Chinese medicine fatigue and food/herbal causes, atmospheric forces, acupuncture, t’ai chi, and discoveries for disease prevention were all formed. These elements helped shape the medicine used today and helped medieval Chinese medicine tremendously. Chinese medicine was a system of diagnoses and…

Air pollution, and the global warming that ensues, are hotly debated in not only science, but politics. As such, climate models have been created in order to predict future conditions: including how air pollution plays into it. The physics of this technology ranges from simple laws to complex concepts that are difficult to grasp. However, reading the models is easy enough to understand, and they are pivotal in interpreting data revolving around air pollution. Thus, the advancement of climate…

The probable causes of this phenomenon would obey profound alterations between the atmosphere and ocean, which would be generated in the region of the tropical Pacific, causing abnormalities in the general circulation of the atmosphere with varied effects reverberating globally. The occurrence of this phenomenon results in climate changes, mostly accompanied by abundant rainfall, alterations in marine and terrestrial ecosystems, issue straight influenced and negative impacts on the national…

healthy democracy has a general interest in scientific issues (Hargreaves et al cited in Gavin et al, 2011). Global weather is an open system in a dynamic equilibrium, this means that all weather systems interlink and has impacts over latitude due to atmospheric and oceanic changes caused by El-Niño. El-Niño is a natural variability of the climate…

The RCP8.5 Future of Sub-Saharan Africa and High Northern Latitudes by 2100 1. Introduction 1.1 RCPs and RCP8.5 RCPs is short for Representative Concentration Pathways, which are a set of four new scenarios defined by their approximate total radiative forcing in 2100 relative 1750: 2.6 W/m2 for RCP2.6, 4.5 W/m2 for RCP4.5, 6.0 W/m2 for RCP6.0, and 8.5 W/m2 for RCP8.5, for the Fifth Assessment Report of IPCC. RCP2.6 represents a mitigation scenario resulting in a very low forcing level. RCP4.5…

atmosphere of Titan, but we still decide to use lander. According to the different layers of atmosphere, we need to know and understand the each layer’s compositions. Therefore, we start to work on the lander because lander can go down through the whole atmospheric layers and land on the surface of Titan for collecting evidence, which can help us to find weather the origin of methane comes from the underground or not. In January 2005, the Huygens probe landed on Titan. It is a good successful…

These urban heat island effects have been documented by many authors. Finally, studies concluded that the real global mean surface temperature trend is very likely to be considerably to higher temperatures caused by urban heat islands to rising atmospheric CO2…

Hurricanes and tornados are both forms of natural disasters that have the potential to cause great devastation. They are caused by the unpredictability in atmospheric environments. A common delusion is that they are the same type of system, but with a different name; however, this is far from being true. Hurricanes and tornadoes have similar traits, but they also have many differences. Although they both share similar makings and features, they are different structures altogether. Both…

infrastructures. Northern to mid-latitude hot weather extremes involving the AO positive phase can occur naturally, but man-made global warming produces erratic weather anomalies, which vary in frequency, length, and severity. Arctic Oscillation The AO air circulation moves in a counterclockwise direction, circulating around the Arctic at 55 degrees North latitude (NOAA, 2016a). NOAA (2016a) further explains, the positive AO phase produces strong winds, which rotate around the North Pole to…

accompanied by thunderstorms that produce circular wind flow with winds below 39 mph. Once a group of thunderstorms has come together under the right atmospheric conditions for a long enough time, they may organize into a tropical depression. Lowered pressure is indicated with at least one closed isobar on a surface pressure chart. Also, the organized circulation of wind in the center of the thunderstorms is detected. This stage is the weakest form of a tropical cyclone. In the United States,…
