Tracking the Literature of Tropical Weather

2017
This chapter tracks the etymology and usage of the terms hurricane, cyclone and typhoon. It discusses the relationship between indigenous knowledges, scientific data collection and analysis, and the place of tropical cyclone in a range of literatures - as a record of event and impact, but also its employment as a metaphor of human-centred disruption ...

Tropical weather effects on foliage propagation

2nd European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP 2007), 2007
This paper investigates the dynamic property of a tropical forested channel due to the weather effects on UHF radio wave propagation. In this study, continuous wave (CW) envelope fading waveforms are recorded over a period of 50 seconds with static antennas. The weather induced temporal variation has been analysed with the Rician distribution function.

Ancient tropical weathering in Calabria

Nature, 1974
FROM the lower Crati valley in Calabria, to the Peloritani Mountains in Sicily, metamorphic and intrusive igneous lithotypes represent the bulk of the Apennine mountain range. A wide cover of Tertiary sediment overlies these rocks, mainly along the coastal areas. The metamorphic and igneous rocks are in a weathered state.

Numerical Prediction of Tropical Weather Systems

Monthly Weather Review, 1972
Abstract A multilevel primitive-equation model has been designed for regional weather forecasting in the Tropics. Several experimental forecasts have been made on hurricane movement and development and on a nondeveloping tropical weather system. Forecasts of the movement of hurricane Celia were slightly slow and somewhat south of the actual track. Some

The weather and climate of the tropics: Part 10 – Tropical agriculture

Weather, 2009
This final part of the series contains a brief overview of agriculture in the tropics, as well as its effects, noting the increasing human population in all tropical climate zones. In many places, humans have altered the distribution of plant and animal species, in almost all areas using plants and animals for food or labour.

Relative Humidity in Tropical Weather Systems

Monthly Weather Review, 1975
Abstract Relative humidity and temperature information is presented for satellite-observed western Pacific and West Indies summertime cloud clusters, cloud cluster environments, clear regions, typhoons, and pre-typhoon cloud clusters. Information is stratified by weather system, region, and time of day. Data are presented as differences from the Jordan

Imazaquin Sorption in Highly Weathered Tropical Soils

Journal of Environmental Quality, 2000
AbstractImazaqnin is a herbicide used intensively in Brazil to control a large number of weeds associated with soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. Most of the Brazilian soils are highly weathered (50–60% are Oxisols). The extent of sorption and desorption of imazaquin in these soils will dictate its mobility and environmental fate once microbial ...

Weathering and morphogenesis in a tropical plateau

CATENA, 1983
Summary Weathering phenomena on the Campos do Jordao Plateau have been analysed in order to show their relationship to geomorphic compartition and morphogenetic dynamics. Correlations between weathering characteristics of surficial materials and geomorphic compartments are more conspicuous in saprolite than in soils.

Stages in the tropical weathering of kimberlite

Clay Minerals, 1966
AbstractNumerous exposures of highly altered kimberlites in exploratory trenches and pits have afforded an opportunity of studying the very great changes which take place chemically and mineralogically under conditions of tropical weathering in Sierra Leone.
