  Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Tropical year   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
A tropical year is the length of time that the Sun, as viewed from the Earth, takes to return to the same position along the ecliptic (its path among the stars on the celestial sphere).
On Earth, we notice the progress of the tropical year from the slow motion of the Sun from south to north and back; the word "tropical" is derived from Greek tropos meaning "turn".
The tropics of Cancer and Capricorn mark the extreme north and south latitudes the Sun reaches during this cycle.

 Monthly Global Tropical Cyclone Summary January 2005
The LOW was nowhere near becoming a tropical or even subtropical cyclone, but it was nonetheless interesting in that SSTs in the area ranged from 24 to 26 C. Out-of-season tropical cyclones have originated in that general area in the past (e.g., Alice of December, 1954, Lili of December, 1984, and Ana of April, 2003).
Tropical Depression 01W proceeded to strengthen slowly during the 14th as it drifted erratically west to west-northwestward and reached tropical storm intensity at 1800 UTC 14 January approximately 430 nm south-southeast of Guam.
Tropical Cyclone Ernest's intensity began to creep upward at 21/1800 UTC, and by 0600 UTC on 22 January had reached its peak MSW of 90 kts, thereby qualifying for intense tropical cyclone status.

 Aero-Green Aeroponics
When the growing cycle is complete at Aero Green, after three to four weeks, the trays of lettuce are carried to an automatic harvester, to be packaged for sale.
Sime Darby's Singapore interest in tropical aeroponics can thus be counted as most likely to be significant for the technology's long-term future in the tropics.
For example, in the Singapore Institute of Architects proposal for the Kampong Bugis Development Guide Plan, released in October 1990, it was proposed that 100% of all horizontal surfaces, and 60% of all vertical surfaces should be planted -- with aeroponics being the dominant technology.

 Upper Troposphere and Lower Stratosphere II Posters - Atmospheric Sciences [A]
In the tropical and mid-latitude lower stratosphere, ozone profiles of the 68-level model were remarkably better agreement with observations.
Accurate temperature measurements at the tropical tropopause are critical to diagnosing the relationship between water vapor saturation mixing ratio and stratospheric water vapor and, accordingly, the mechanisms for stratosphere-troposphere exchange.
In the tropics plumes originating near the surface may have sufficient potential energy to overshoot their level of neutral buoyancy.

This talk provides a summary of a two-year study under a CEDAR post-doc fellowship that investigated the coupling between large tropical storms and ionospheric disturbances.
In order to ascertain the source of any ionospheric variations observed coincident to a tropical storm, a number of instruments have been utilized: ionosondes, incoherent scatter radars, GPS receivers, and microbarographs.
Observations during the other storms studied provide mounting evidence that hurricanes and tropical storms can produce large localized effects into the E- and F-regions of the ionosphere.
