Podcasts about itcz

Rants about Brazilian Atlantic Forests and Cerrado (Seh-Haddo) vegetation, seasonal dryness caused by the ITCZ and Earth's Axis of rotation, converge traits of sclerophyll leaves among unrelated plants families, bizarre members of Asteraceae, Tree Vernonias, Xeric Aroids and Bromeliads, and much more.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5634537/advertisement

"Das Klima”, der Podcast zur Wissenschaft hinter der Krise. Wir lesen den aktuellen Bericht des Weltklimarats und erklären den aktuellen Stand der Klimaforschung. Wir sind bei Kapitel 3 des IPCC-Berichts angekommen und damit dem, was wir Menschen so getrieben haben. Nix gutes, was das Klima angeht, das kann man sich denken. Um das ganze aber auch wissenschaftlich seriös abzusichern, geht es um dritten Kapitel ganzt explizit darum, welchen Anteil die diversen menschlichen Aktivitäten an den beobachteten Änderungen in allen Bereichen des Klimasystems haben. Darum klären wir zuerst einmal, wie man das eigentlich ausrechnet (Spoiler: Man braucht jede Menge Methoden mit seltsamen Akronymen). Danach schauen wir ein bisschen im Detail auf die Mechanismen des Klimawandels und vor allem zurück in die Geschichte seiner Erforschung. Wie lange wissen wir eigentlich schon, dass wir das Klima verändern? Und wer hat das rausgefunden? Am Ende erklärt Claudia noch ganz konkret, was an menschengemachten Veränderungen in der Atmosphäre stattfgefunden hat. Inklusive chaotischer Variabilitäten, der überraschenden Verbindung zwischen Monsun und Mikrochips und dem - zu Recht! - vernachlässigten Wasserdampf. Außerdem: Geht zur Wahl! Und zum Klimastreik!

Hygiene at sea, ITCZ, Drunken fisherman

  Bob McDavitt has been forecasting weather in the South Pacific for forty years including providing weather advice for the New Zealand challengers in the America's Cup and 16-year-old, round-the-world sailor Jessica Watson. He advised about 300 boats last season doing ocean passages in the South Pacific as well as runs a free weather newsletter/blog for over 20 years at http://weathergram.blogspot.com/.  His website is http://www.metbob.com/. He talks to the Slow Boat Sailing podcast about South Pacific weather patterns, the 1994 Pacific Storm, and Cyclone Watson.  He talks about how he helps sailors avoid the squally ITCZ.  In addition, he explains the El Nino warming of the South Pacific and argues that it will not be a factor in the 2016 South Pacific cruising season of April to November.  El Nino should disappear by April 2016. 

In this episode: An AeroCommander 500-B crashes at Midway, A Delta MD88 hits a flock of geese at Raleigh Durham Airport, Feds investigate several recent drone sitings near JFK, more feedback, including landing gear retraction, the ITCZ, reduced thrust takeoffs, and much more!

The seasonal cycle on Earth causes shifts in the bands of precipitation in the northern and southern hemispheres. The polar front shifts between high and mid-latitudes which causes a latitudinal shift in the occurrence of frontal cyclones. The Intertropical Convergence Zone also shifts across the equator bringing bands of precipitation to different tropical regions throughout the year. Regional climates on Earth have been classified based on temperature and precipitation values. Areas affected by seasonal shifts in the ITCZ and polar front are included in this classification scheme. Several examples of seasonality are discussed as well as seasonal weather and climate events.
