	Phenomenon - The Black Vault Encyclopedia Project
		A phenomenon (plural: phenomena) is an observable event, particularly something special (literally something that can be seen, derived from the Greek word phainomenon = observable).
		Phenomenon has a specialized meaning in the philosophy of Immanuel Kant who contrasted the term Phenomenon with noumenon.
		It was an attempt to explain phenomena like; earthquakes, lightning, rain, fire, sunrise, thunderstorm, rusting that lead to the development of modern science.

	Meterological Drought
		It is also commonly recognized that other meteorological elements, such as temperature, wind, and relative humidity, may aggravate the severity and impacts of drought in some instances.
		Meteorological and climatological drought is defined in terms of the departure from normal and the duration of the event.
		Drought is a slow-onset phenomenon that usually takes at least three months to develop and may last for several seasons or years.

		A weather prediction system which predicts a meteorological phenomenon in each of regions, which are obtained by fractionating a specific region in advance, on the basis of prediction information and observation information of a meteorological factor, which are periodically provided from an outside, comprising:
		meteorological phenomenon prediction means for predicting the meteorological phenomenon in each region by inputting the prediction information and observation information of the meteorological factor to a local numerical weather prediction model of the specific region;
		wherein the meteorological phenomenon prediction means receives the generated heat value predicted for each region and adds the generated heat value predicted for each region to the input prediction information and observation information to thereby reflect the generated heat value predicted for each region on the numerical weather prediction model.

	ESA Human Spaceflight \| Users » LSO
		Sprites are a meteorological phenomenon discovered in 1989, which have the appearance of a luminous glow above lightning storms between 50 - 90km above the Earth’s surface.
		The aim of this experiment is to observe sprites during storms, determine the energy emitted by them (and elves, which are similar phenomenon to sprites), and compare this to nightly emissions of lightning.
		This ever-fascinating phenomenon of nature often plays havoc with radio communications and power lines and it is important to be able to predict when and where they will strike to take necessary precautions and countermeasures.

	Append-g
		Meteorological jargon; a term for the initial, preflight preparation and calibration of a radiosonde.
		A generic term for describing the spatial extent of a meteorological phenomenon, generally encompassing the range 100 to 1000 km.
		In meteorology, this term has become somewhat specialized in referring to the use of meteorological data obtained simultaneously over a wide area for the purpose of presenting a comprehensive and nearly instantaneous picture of the state of the atmosphere.

	CalendarHome.com - Winter - Calendar Encyclopedia
		Meteorological winter is the season having the shortest days (which vary greatly according to latitude) and the lowest temperatures.
		A rare meteorological phenomenon encountered during winter is ice fog, which is composed of ice crystals suspended in the air and happening only at very low temperatures (at least 10 degrees below zero Fahrenheit).
		Astronomically, it starts with the winter solstice (around December 21 in the Northern Hemisphere and June 21 in the Southern Hemisphere), and ends with the spring equinox (around March 21 in the Northern Hemisphere and September 23 in the Southern Hemisphere).

	Rainbows and Clouds Pictures
		A rainbow is an optical and meteorological phenomenon that causes a nearly continuous spectrum of light to appear in the sky when the Sun shines onto droplets of moisture in the Earth's atmosphere.
		This phenomenon can be confused with the glory, but a glory is usually much smaller, covering only 5°–20°, as opposed to over 80° for a full circle rainbow.
		Occasionally, another beautiful and striking rainbow phenomenon can be observed, consisting of several faint rainbows on the inner side of the primary rainbow, and very rarely also outside the secondary rainbow.

	Observations of Sea Breezes by Radar
		The conclusions drawn by Atlas are, at their fundamental level, based upon the meteorological fact that the onset of a sea breeze results in an air mass boundary across which there is an increase of vapor pressure and a decrease of temperature.
		In cases where insects respond to meteorological conditions and thus are not valid tracers of air motion, their response intensifies, rather than reduces the observed echo.
		That is, the meteorological phenomena which lead to increased reflectivity due to congregation of a large number of insects also often lead to large gradients in refractive index.

	TORNADOES- Electromagnetic Theory (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Huge negative rays discharge from the clouds in the atmosphere to the nucleus elongation, which in the case of the tornadoes is even closer to the cortex than the protuberances formed in other meteorological phenomenon, eventhough its diameter is smaller.
		Due to the closiness of the protuberance to the surface and to the very high electric energy discharged to the protuberance, the rotating section in the surface is forced to increase its rotational speed in a very short area, displacing and conforming the meteorological condition known as a tornadoe.
		The difference between one phenomenon and the other is due to its magnitude, distance of the protuberance to the cortex, dimensions and diameter.

	Spiraling Clouds
		This phenomenon is believed created by the attraction of charged particles to the magnetic field lines of force of this planet’s magnetic field.
		Such an expression—“electronic fogs”— was first used by Bruce Gernon to describe a meteorological phenomenon he encountered in the Triangle on December 4, 1970, which to this day remains unexplained.
		Proton monitoring, unfortunately, was not in effect until 1976, and there is therefore no way to determine if a sub solar storm was in part responsible for “charging” the area and created or charging the doughnut-shaped cloud he experienced.
