PPT-DR.IQBAL KHALAF Methods of measuring precipitation

Precipitation can be divided into three categories based on whether it falls as liquid water liquid water that freezes on contact with the surface or ice Mixtures of different types of precipitation including types in different categories can fall simultaneously .

CBC data from 1977 to 2011 on European Starling, American Robin, American Crow, Horned Lark, Great Horned Owl and Black-Capped Chickadee and . Vicarious Liability. Vicarious Liability. . . Doctrine that imposes responsibility upon one person for the failure of another with whom the person has a special relationship. It is a form of strict secondary liability that arises under the common law doctrine of agency. Example of this is employer to employee, the owner of the vehicle and the driver. Employers liability, employers are liable under common law principle represented in the Latin phrase “qui facit per alium per se” (one who acts through another acts in ones own interest). Liability of corporations, a corporation can only act through its employees and agents. The matter would be how the law can be applied with a holding for the fraud of its directors or senior officers. With application to the case of Ashcroft V. Iqbal. The agent is subject to liability to a third party harmed by the agent tortious conduct. Unless an applicable statue prove otherwise and that remains subject to liability (QUALIFIED IMMUNITY) although the actor acts as an agent or an employee with actual or apparent authority within scope of employment.. Cloud Naming. Prefix indicates height. Cirro. .  high, 5-13 km. Alto  middle, 2-5 km. (none)  low, 0-2 km. Name for appearance. Cirrus .  wispy strands. Stratus  layered, uniform. Cumulus puffy with vertical structure. Precipitation. We’ve studied the water cycle, and last week we focused on the “Condensation”. part. Now, we are going to discuss the precipitation part of the water cycle.. Let’s watch this video on Precipitation!. "Rain Drops Keep Falling on my Head" B.J. Thompson (1969). INTRODUCTION. How much rain do you get in your area?. How about snow?. This amount varies around the world. . For example, people living in Spokane, Washington get much more rain than those in Phoenix, Arizona..

Olson, J. Kwiatkowski . What is precipitation?. Water that falls from the sky, it can be in different forms.. Hail, sleet, snow, rain.. Rain. As warm air rises into the atmosphere it cools. The air creates water vapor which condenses and forms into clouds. Once the clouds are big enough and are holding enough water it begins to rain.. . Photograph: Tony Clarke, VOCALS .

Be able to estimate area average precipitation from point measurements using a variety of methods. Estimate design rainfall amounts and intensities. Develop ArcGIS skills for analysis .

Department of Atmospheric Science. Water vapor, droplets of water suspended in the air, builds up in the Earth's atmosphere. . Water vapor in the atmosphere is visible as clouds and fog. . Water vapor collects with other materials, such as dust, in clouds. Precipitation condenses, or forms, around these tiny pieces of material, called cloud condensation nuclei (CCN).. Relief. There are three reasons why air is forced upward also forming three types of precipitation.. Relief . Precipitation- caused by winds carrying air up over a mountain barrier.. Convectional Precipitation. Artificial rain making.. Process of Precipitation:. Precipitation is caused by condensation of water . vapours. of the air mass. . The ascending air mass with sufficient amount of water . vapours. becomes saturated due to adiabatic cooling. Condensation of water . produced by different activities. Stay safe.   . Whether you are a scientist researching a new medicine or an engineer solving climate change, safety always comes first. An adult must always be around and supervising when doing this activity.
