The World Around Us: How does the Weatherman know what to say?
http://learnngain.blogspot.com/2008/09/how-does-weatherman-know-what-to-say.html
The World Around Us. Wednesday, September 3, 2008. How does the Weatherman know what to say? All the conditions of the atmosphere are "weather". Whether it's hot or col, dry or wet, sunny or cloudy, windy or still, its "weather". The weather is changeable from day to day, and the total effect during a year is called "the climate". The maps which the weather experts study show them many things: places where the air pressure is equal, places of equal temperature, directions of local winds, cloudy or clear ...

The World Around Us: Why do we still have Glaciers today?
http://learnngain.blogspot.com/2008/08/why-do-we-still-have-glaciers-today.html
The World Around Us. Sunday, August 10, 2008. Why do we still have Glaciers today? The great ice mass that began the Ice Age in North America has been called "a continental glacier" it may have been about 4,500 metres thick in its center. This great glacier probably formed and then melted away at least four times during the Ice Age. The Ice Age or glacial that took place in other parts of the world still had not had a chance to melt away! There are more than 1,200 such glaciers in the Alps of Europe!

The World Around Us. Monday, June 30, 2008. What are tidal waves? In 1946, there was an earthquake on the ocean floor near Aleutian Islands. A gigantic wave was set up and in less than five hours it traveled 2,000 miles and struck Hawaii. It lifted houses and bridges and threw them hundereds of metres. More than 170 people were drwoned. If a ship happens to be in the region, it will actually be rocked by the shock, and it feels just as if the ship has struck a rock! What causes the waves? This, of course...

The World Around Us. Thursday, July 31, 2008. When did the Ice Age end? Most people think of the Ice Age as something that happened so long ago that not a sign of it remains. But did you know that geologists say we are just now reaching the end of the Ice Age? And people who live in Greenland are actually still in the Ice Age as far as they're concerned. The last Ice Age didn't melt at the same rate everywhere. For example, cie that reached what is now Wisconsin began to melt about 40,000 years ago&#...

The World Around Us. Wednesday, September 3, 2008. Why do we have different Seasons? Since earliest times, man has been curious about the changing of the seasons. Why is it warm in summer and cold in winter? Why do the days gradually grow longer in the spring? Why are the nights so long in winter? How does the Weatherman know what to say? All the conditions of the atmosphere are "weather". Whether it's hot or col, dry or wet, sunny or cloudy, windy or still, its "weather". The weather is changeab...There...

The World Around Us. Friday, August 15, 2008. Why do Volcanoes appear only in certain places? There are no volcanoes near New York City or London or Paris- nor are there likely to be any in the future. Yet there are parts of the world where there are several volcanoes quite near each other. Here is how a volcano is born: As you know, the center of the earth is hot. The deeper you go under the surface of the earth, the higher the temperature. At a depth of about 20 miles, it is so hot (1,000 to 1,...When ...
