NARGIS - TROPICAL REVOLVING STORMS
Download as PPT, PDF0 likes4,632 views
Tropical Storm Nargis caused massive destruction in Burma, with estimates of at least 100,000 deaths and over a million people made homeless or without access to clean water and food. Local partners have started providing relief to 20,000 families in the worst-hit Irrawaddy delta region, distributing blankets, medicines, and water purification tablets from resources they had available, but many parts of the delta remain unreached and people are struggling to survive as diseases spread. The local partners are leading response efforts but have limited supplies that will run out unless the Burmese government allows more international aid into the country.

The document discusses altitude and ocean currents. It contains a graphic showing altitude levels from 2000 meters above sea level to sea level, indicating the document relates to elevation and ocean water movement. The graphic suggests the document may examine how altitude and ocean currents interact or relate to each other.Altitude 1

The document describes the temperature changes that occur when air rises up the windward side of a 3000m mountain located on the coast in mid-latitudes. As the air rises and cools at the dry adiabatic lapse rate of 10属C per 1000m, it reaches the lifting condensation level of 2000m where condensation begins and the rate of cooling decreases to the saturated adiabatic lapse rate of 5属C per 1000m. At the top of the mountain, the air temperature is 1属C. As the air subsides on the leeward side, its temperature increases according to the dry adiabatic lapse rate, making that side warmer and drier than the windward sideOcean Currents 1
Ocean Currents 1GeoCoops

Ocean currents exist to help balance the Earth's uneven heating by the Sun. The Sun deposits most of its energy at the equator, so atmospheric circulation and ocean currents transfer heat from the equator toward the poles. Winds drive 80% of this redistribution, while ocean currents account for 20%. Surface ocean currents form circular gyre patterns in ocean basins, driven by subtropical high pressure systems, and affect the locations of deserts on western continents in the Southern Hemisphere. Deep ocean currents also circulate heat but over much longer timescales of around 1,000 years.

This document discusses key issues related to climate change and the Indian monsoon. It summarizes that while global temperatures are rising, the mean Indian monsoon rainfall has not shown an increasing trend over the past 100 years. Some extreme rainfall events have increased in intensity. Climate models have high uncertainty in projecting changes to the monsoon under climate change scenarios. Developing high resolution global and regional climate models is crucial for reducing uncertainty but significant challenges remain.hurricanes-math

ANTICYCLONES QUESTIONS
ANTICYCLONES QUESTIONSAlex C G Cooper
油
An anticyclone over the British Isles in winter results in very cold weather with clear skies. Daytime temperatures are below freezing but nighttime temperatures drop much lower as there is little insulation. Radiation fogs form in low-lying areas at night due to the rapid cooling of air in contact with the frozen ground and slowly burn off in the morning due to the sun's weak heating at that time of year.BI - ANTICYCLONES 
BI - ANTICYCLONES Alex C G Cooper
油
Anticyclones are high pressure weather systems that form over the British Isles frequently. They are characterized by calm winds with widely spaced isobars, sinking air that warms and decreases humidity, causing clear skies. In winter, anticyclones bring cold days and frosts with the potential for pollution inversions, while summer anticyclones result in hot days with hazy sunshine and the risk of thunderstorms from moist air masses. Anticyclones can influence weather conditions for up to 10 days as they move slowly across the region.Air Masses Affecting the British Isles

The document summarizes environmental migration in Darfur, Sudan. It describes how drought and decreasing rainfall have led to degradation of natural resources and conflict between farmers and herders. Climate change is projected to further reduce the growing season. This has displaced millions within Sudan, including over 272,000 in Darfur as of 2019. The conflict in Darfur began in 2003 when rebels protested the government's disregard for the region. In response, government-backed militias terrorized civilians and prevented aid, leading to further displacement. Environmental issues like water scarcity, degradation, and climate change have exacerbated the conflict by increasing competition over scarce resources.Snake bites

The Coeur d'Alene Tribe has faced significant loss of their land and pollution of their waters from encroachment and extraction by settlers over the past 100 years. Their reservation land was reduced from over 5 million acres to just 70,000 acres as settlers took the land for logging, farming, and mining. Mining waste dumped into rivers by miners depleted fish populations and led to widespread pollution. Today, the Tribe is working to continue cleaning up contamination and regain stewardship of their lands and waters. Moving forward, the Tribe aims to reconnect with their cultural practices like fishing and utilize their core values of membership, scholarship, stewardship, and spirituality to bring together the various lake and river communities to preserve and restore theMore Related Content

This document discusses the history of whaling and its impact on whale populations. It explains that whaling dramatically reduced great whale species for their oil, meat, and other products. While some protections began in the 1930s, commercial whaling continued until a 1986 moratorium. Thanks to conservation efforts, some whale populations like gray and humpback whales have increased, but most remain well below original numbers due to threats like pollution, noise, ship strikes and entanglements. The document also discusses threats to smaller cetaceans like bycatch and direct hunting, and notes that a few countries like Japan, Norway and Iceland still engage in some limited commercial whaling today.NIGER PERIODIC FAMINE

The document discusses periodic famines that occur in Niger due to regional failures in food production or distribution systems. It describes Niger's geography and climate, with the northern half being part of the Sahara desert and the central and southern regions receiving more rainfall. Farming practices vary by region, from nomadic herding in the north to agro-pastoral systems and permanent villages in the central and south. The 2005 famine in Niger is examined, caused by below average rainfall and locust plagues that reduced crop yields, combined with poverty, high food prices, and depleted government food reserves. Short term responses included food aid while long term solutions focused on irrigation, dams, wells, and agricultural development.Human wildlife conflict

The document summarizes a HART team's visit to Blue Nile State, Sudan in January 2015. They witnessed the devastating impact of ongoing aerial bombardment and attacks on civilians by the Sudanese government. This is creating a major humanitarian crisis, as attacks target crops, livestock, and people working in the fields. Local organizations like the NSCC and NRRDO are working to provide crucial humanitarian aid of food, medicine, and education, but there is a huge unmet need. Education is a top priority for communities despite the conflict and lack of infrastructure, as it is seen as key to building peace and preventing future wars.World+water+day PPT

The document discusses the structure and composition of Earth's atmosphere. It is divided into four layers: the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere. Each layer has distinct temperature and chemical characteristics. The troposphere contains around 80% of the atmosphere and is where weather occurs. Temperatures decrease with height in the troposphere. The stratosphere has temperatures that increase with height due to ozone absorbing UV radiation. The mesosphere has temperatures that decrease rapidly with no gases to absorb radiation.SAND DUNES - AINSDALE

Winter 2013/14 saw prolonged heavy rain and flooding on the Somerset Levels in central Somerset, England. The Levels are a flat coastal plain lying close to sea level that is mainly used for agriculture. Hundreds of homes were affected, villages were cut off, and major roads were blocked by the flooding. Farmers struggled to graze animals or were forced to evacuate livestock. Responses included rescue boats, military assistance, and promises of funds for repairs, while longer term plans involved improving drainage through dredging, raising flood defenses, and installing permanent pumps. However, some argue for more sustainable options such as slowing floodwater through tree planting and pond creation or allowing some areas to naturally return to wetland.MALNUTRITION
MALNUTRITIONGeoCoops

Malnutrition increases the risk of disease and early death. A balanced diet should comprise 60% carbohydrates, 20% protein, and 20% fat, along with sufficient vitamins, minerals, and roughage. Marasmus is a severe form of malnutrition caused by inadequate protein and calorie intake, resulting in wasting, growth retardation, decreased activity, lethargy, behavioral changes, slowed growth, and weight loss. Children with marasmus rarely return to normal growth standards.GLOBAL URBANISATION

Tokyo is currently the largest city in the world by population, with over 34 million residents. Urbanization is the increasing percentage of the human population living in cities and urban areas, often at the expense of rural areas. Rapid urbanization has seen the populations of many cities, especially in developing regions of Asia, Africa, and Latin America, grow rapidly over recent decades. The top 20 largest cities by population in the world are all over 10 million residents, with over half located in Asia.Weathering

This document defines weathering as the breakdown of rocks through three main processes: biological, chemical, and physical weathering. It provides details on each type of weathering. Chemical weathering involves carbon dioxide mixing with rainwater to form a weak acid that dissolves rocks like limestone. Biological weathering occurs as plants and animals break rocks down by growing in cracks or digging. Physical weathering includes onion skin weathering (exfoliation) where temperature changes cause rock layers to peel and freeze-thaw weathering where water freezing in cracks breaks rocks apart. The document instructs students on assignments to complete about the conditions that cause the strongest chemical and physical weathering.Katse dam

The document discusses international aid and provides an example of the Katse Dam project in Lesotho. It defines the three main types of international aid as bilateral, multilateral, and non-governmental. It also describes the World Bank as a major provider of multilateral aid through low-interest loans and grants for infrastructure and development projects. As a case study, it introduces the Katse Dam project in Lesotho funded by the World Bank to generate hydroelectric power, and notes the learning objectives are to identify different aid types, analyze advantages and disadvantages of large projects, and determine a project's effectiveness.
OBESITY 
OBESITY GeoCoops

Obesity is a global health issue, defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that may impair health. According to the WHO, in 2005 over 1.6 billion adults were overweight and 400 million were clinically obese, numbers that are expected to surge significantly by 2015. Obesity prevalence varies widely between countries but is rising almost everywhere, posing serious health risks like increased chances of diseases such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Explanations for the global rise of obesity include nutrition transitions to highly processed diets and increasingly sedentary lifestyles in many societies. The WHO recognizes obesity as a global epidemic with over 2.3 billion people projected to be overweight by 2015.

China has experienced rapid economic growth in recent decades, with annual growth rates around 6-7%. This is due to economic reforms and opening up to foreign trade and investment, including joining the WTO. However, questions remain about whether China's high growth can be sustained long-term given potential weaknesses such as demographic changes, environmental problems, and overreliance on exports and infrastructure investment. A thorough analysis of China's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats would be needed to assess sustainability.Recently uploaded (20)

The intersection of AI and pharmaceutical formulation science highlights significant blind spotssystemic gaps in pharmaceutical development, regulatory oversight, quality assurance, and the ethical use of AIthat could jeopardize patient safety and undermine public trust. To move forward effectively, we must address these normalized blind spots, which may arise from outdated assumptions, errors, gaps in previous knowledge, and biases in language or regulatory inertia. This is essential to ensure that AI and formulation science are developed as tools for patient-centered and ethical healthcare.Computer Application in Business (commerce)

Blind Spots in AI and Formulation Science Knowledge Pyramid (Updated Perspect...Ajaz Hussain
油
This presentation delves into the systemic blind spots within pharmaceutical science and regulatory systems, emphasizing the significance of "inactive ingredients" and their influence on therapeutic equivalence. These blind spots, indicative of normalized systemic failures, go beyond mere chance occurrences and are ingrained deeply enough to compromise decision-making processes and erode trust.
Historical instances like the 1938 FD&C Act and the Generic Drug Scandals underscore how crisis-triggered reforms often fail to address the fundamental issues, perpetuating inefficiencies and hazards.
The narrative advocates a shift from reactive crisis management to proactive, adaptable systems prioritizing continuous enhancement. Key hurdles involve challenging outdated assumptions regarding bioavailability, inadequately funded research ventures, and the impact of vague language in regulatory frameworks.
The rise of large language models (LLMs) presents promising solutions, albeit with accompanying risks necessitating thorough validation and seamless integration.
Tackling these blind spots demands a holistic approach, embracing adaptive learning and a steadfast commitment to self-improvement. By nurturing curiosity, refining regulatory terminology, and judiciously harnessing new technologies, the pharmaceutical sector can progress towards better public health service delivery and ensure the safety, efficacy, and real-world impact of drug products.Useful environment methods in Odoo 18 - Odoo 際際滷s
