	Sir Gilbert Walker
		A British scientist, Walker, who was the head of the Indian Meteorological Service, had been asked in 1904 to try to figure out how to predict the vagaries of India's monsoons after an 1899 famine that was caused by monsoon failure.
		Walker was convinced that all these events were part of the same phenomenon.
		Walker conceded that he couldn't prove his theory but predicted that whatever was causing the connection in weather patterns would become clear once wind patterns above ground level, which were not routinely being observed at that time, were thrown into the equation.

	Walker circulation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Walker circulation is caused by the pressure gradient force that results from a high pressure system over the eastern pacific ocean, and a low pressure system over Indonesia.
		When the Walker circulation weakens or reverses, an El Niño results, causing the ocean surface to be warmer than average, as upwelling of cold water occurs less or not at all.
		The Walker circulation is seen at the surface as easterly trade winds which move water and air warmed by the sun towards the west.

	7 Wn. App. 878, THE STATE OF WASHINGTON, Appellant, v. JAN GILBERT WALKER, Respondent and Cross-appellant
		Walker, through his counsel, argued to the jury that he (Walker) was an agent for the purchaser and not the seller; the jury rejected the argument.
		Walker also argues that the action against him should have been dismissed since the statute under which he was charged had been repealed without an applicable saving clause prior to the date of the commencement of the action against him.
		Walker's alleged violation occurred on May 16, 1971; the statute under which he was charged, RCW 69.40.060, was repealed on May 21, 1971; he was charged on June 14, 1971.

		Gilbert and Walker would then drink champagne and sprinkle fairy dust on each other to celebrate how mean they had been to the stupid new guy who just played bass anyway.
		Gilbert decided to take a leave the band for a year to live in Germany, ostensibly in order to perfect his command of the language before embarking on graduate studies, though inside sources report that he was in really just banging a young Aryan girl while swilling quarts of fine Czech beer.
		Walker and Fobes decided that the outcome could only be determined by tickle fight, in which Gilbert managed a surprise win after he discovered Hayes was particularly sensitive in his beer holding hand.

		Sir Gilbert Walker, Director General of the Observatory in India, assumed his post in 1904, shortly after the famine resulting from the monsoon of 1899 (an El Nino year).
		Walker's goal was to predict the Asian monsoon fluctuations.
		Walker sorted through world weather records dating from just before the turn of the 20th century which described the sea level pressure swing between South America and India-Australia.

	82 Wn.2d 851, THE STATE OF WASHINGTON, Respondent, v. JAN GILBERT WALKER, Petitioner.
		Walker had no knowledge of Scott Jefferson's location or residence; it was the police informant, McQueston, who led the threesome to Jefferson's home.
		Walker then moved for arrest of judgment or, in the alternative, a new trial upon the basis that insufficient evidence had been presented to demonstrate any agency relationship to the seller, Scott Jefferson.
		For JAN GILBERT WALKER to be an aider and abettor, you must find beyond a reasonable doubt that he had an intent to aid the defendant JEFFERSON in engaging in the sale in question, if you find such a sale did take place.

	Reports to the Nation: El Nino and Climate Prediction
		When the seesaw is in its "high-index" (strongly tilted) state, pressure is high on the eastern side of the Pacific and low on the western side, as indicated in the upper panel of this figure.
		Walker noticed that monsoon seasons with low-index conditions are often marked by drought in Australia, Indonesia, India, and parts of Africa.
		Hence, Walker's pressure seesaw is linked to dramatic changes in the distribution of rainfall in the tropics.

	Packers Premium - Notebook: Shoulder injury slows replacement Walker

		Walker has been through some contact, but it has been in the weight room, not on the practice field.

	Nature's Vicious Cycle - El Nino La Nina
		The Walker circulation was named after the man who first predicted that weather is a global phenomenon -- Sir Gilbert Walker.
		He also realized that Asian monsoon seasons under certain barometric conditions were often linked to drought in Australia, Indonesia, India, and parts of Africa and mild winters in western Canada.
		In a modern rendition of "the world is flat" scenario, he was publicly criticized for suggesting that climatic conditions over such widely separated regions of the globe could be linked.

	Sir Gilbert Walker and a Connection between El Niño and Statistics, Richard W. Katz
		The eponym “Walker Circulation” refers to a concept used by atmospheric scientists and oceanographers in providing a physical explanation for the El Niño–Southern Oscillation phenomenon, whereas the eponym “Yule–Walker equations” refers to properties satisfied by the autocorrelations of an autoregressive process.
		Like George Udny Yule (the “Yule” in Yule– Walker), Walker’s motivation was to devise a statistical model that exhibited quasiperiodic behavior.
		The original assessments of Walker’s work, both in the meteorology and in statistics, were somewhat negative.

		Gilbert and Mary Walker, who own all of the interest in Four Walkers, Inc, and their son, Travis Walker, each guaranteed all the four loans, and Gilbert and Mary Walker signed a mortgage and security agreement and an agricultural security agreement to secure the loans.
		Walker stated in his deposition that he specifically remembered that this document was covered by other documents when he signed it, and that he was prevented from reading it because of time, though he did not explain what those time constraints were.
		As the district court ruled, precisely the same allegations as made by the Walkers have been held by the Oklahoma Supreme Court to be insufficient to establish an action for fraud.

		The Walker circulation is named after Sir Gilbert Walker, a Director-General of British observatories in India who, early this century, identified a number of relationships between seasonal climate variations in Asia and the Pacific region.
		The “typical” Walker circulation pattern shown in the diagram has an SOI close to zero (Southern Oscillation close to the long-term average state).
		When the Walker circulation enters its El Niño phase, the SOI is strongly negative (Southern Oscillation at the other extreme of its range).
