Question: The type of scorching hot weather experienced during last season's months will become standard occurrences in our climate pattern. This implies that what was once considered an anomaly or exceptional condition shall now serve as baseline expectations for future summers ahead under current environmental trends.

 Future Climate Projections: A Shift Towards Extreme Heat
Climate models predict that summers akin to the scorchers experienced recently could become commonplace rather than exceptional occurrences. Rising temperatures attributed to anthropogenic (human-caused) climate change indicate that what once seemed unusually hot might soon represent average conditions. Scientists forecast increased frequency and intensity of heatwaves across various regions globally, transforming seasonal norms dramatically.
Urban areas particularly face heightened risks under projected scenarios where "urban heat islands" amplify local warmth. These densely populated centers often experience higher temperatures compared to surrounding rural landscapes because buildings absorb solar radiation during daytime then release stored energy slowly overnight - creating persistently elevated nighttime readings too. Such phenomena exacerbate health impacts associated with prolonged exposure to excessive heat among vulnerable populations including elderly individuals suffering chronic diseases.
Moreover, agricultural productivity declines significantly when crops encounter sustained periods above optimal growing thresholds; livestock similarly suffer stress reactions decreasing meat yields while increasing mortality rates. Water scarcity intensifies concurrently since evaporation rates accelerate alongside ambient air thermometers – placing additional strain upon already strained freshwater supplies essential for drinking purposes let alone irrigation needs crucial within food security contexts especially considering expected increases in demand stemming from demographic pressures exerted via exponential human population expansion trends observed presently around much globe but notably concentrated near equatorial latitudes where effects appear magnified given pre-existing challenges posed by poverty traps limiting adaptive capacities therein.
In essence, transitioning away from historical weather patterns characterized by milder climates towards future states dominated instead by recurring episodes typifying extremes represents both challenge requiring urgent attention coupled simultaneously with opportunities arising thereof should proactive measures taken now prove successful mitigating worst case outcomes later down line thus ensuring sustainable development trajectories remain viable options going forward despite looming uncertainties inherent within nonlinear dynamical systems theory applied herein contextually speaking hereafter referred simply as “climate science”.

Regeneration is the ability for a cell , tissue , or organism to recover from damage . It can also be used to describe the ability of an ecosystem -- specifically , the environment and its living population -- to recover from damage .   Resilience to minor disturbances is one characteristic feature of healthy ecosystems . Following major ( lethal ) disturbances , such as a fire or pest outbreak in a forest , an immediate return to the previous dynamic equilibrium will not be possible . Instead , pioneering species will occupy , compete for space , and establish themselves in the newly opened habitat . The new growth of seedlings and community assembly process is known as regeneration in ecology . As ecological succession sets in , a forest will slowly regenerate towards its former state within the succession ( climax or any intermediate stage ) , provided that all outer parameters ( climate , soil fertility availability of nutrients , animal migration paths , air pollution or the absence thereof , etc. ) remain unchanged .   In certain regions like Australia , natural wildfire is a necessary condition for a cyclically stable ecosystem with cyclic regeneration .

One million ( 1,000,000 ) or one thousand thousand is the natural number following 999,999 and preceding 1,000,001 . The word is derived from the early Italian millione ( milione in modern Italian ) , from mille , `` thousand '' , plus the augmentative suffix - one . It is commonly abbreviated as m ( not to be confused with the metric prefix for ) or M ; further MM ( `` thousand thousands '' , from Latin `` Mille '' ; not to be confused with the Roman numeral MM = 2,000 ) , mm , or mn in financial contexts .   In scientific notation , it is written as or 106 . Physical quantities can also be expressed using the SI prefix mega ( M ) , when dealing with SI units ; for example , 1 megawatt ( 1 MW ) equals 1,000,000 watts .   The meaning of the word `` million '' is common to the short scale and long scale numbering systems , unlike the larger numbers , which have different names in the two systems .   The million is sometimes used in the English language as a metaphor for a very large number , as in `` Not in a million years '' and `` You 're one in a million '' , or a hyperbole , as in `` I 've walked a million miles '' and `` You 've asked the million-dollar question '' .

Real life is a phrase used originally in literature to distinguish between actual and fictional or idealized worlds , and in acting to distinguish between performers and the characters they portray . More recently it has become a popular term on the Internet to describe events , people , activities and interactions occurring offline , or otherwise , not primarily through the medium of the internet .

Religious ecstasy is a type of altered state of consciousness characterized by greatly reduced external awareness and expanded interior mental and spiritual awareness , frequently accompanied by visions and emotional ( and sometimes physical ) euphoria .   Although the experience is usually brief in time , there are records of such experiences lasting several days or even more , and of recurring experiences of ecstasy during one 's lifetime .   A person 's sense of time and space disappear during a religious ecstasy forsaking any senses or physical cognizance in its duration . Among venerated Catholic saints who dabble in Christian mysticism , a person 's physical stature , human sensory , or perception is completely detached from time and space during an ecstatic experience .   In Sufism , the term is referred to as wajad and the experience is referred to as either jazbah or majzoobiyat .

Dehumanization or an act thereof can describe a behavior or process that undermines individuality of and in others . Behaviorally , dehumanization describes a disposition towards others that debases the others ' individuality as either an `` individual '' species or an `` individual '' object , e.g. someone who acts inhumanely towards humans . As a process , it may be understood as the opposite of personification , a figure of speech in which inanimate objects or abstractions are endowed with human qualities ; dehumanization then is the disendowment of these same qualities or a reduction to abstraction , e.g. Technology revolutions cause the dehumanization of labor markets to the point of antiquation .   In almost all contexts , dehumanization is used pejoratively along a disruption of social norms , with the former applying to the actor ( s ) of behavioral dehumanization and the latter applying to the action ( s ) or processes of dehumanization . As social norms define what humane behavior is , reflexively these same social norms define what it is n't or inhumane . Dehumanization differs from inhumane behaviors or processes in its breadth to include the emergence of new competing social norms . This emergence then is the action of dehumanization until the old norms lose out to the competing new norms , which will then redefine the action of dehumanization . If the new norms lose acceptance then the action remains one of dehumanization and its severity is comparative to past examples throughout history . However , dehumanization 's definition remains in a reflexive state of a type-token ambiguity relative to both scales individual and societal .   Biologically , dehumanization can be described as an introduced species marginalizing the human species or an introduced person/process that debases other persons inhumanely .   In political science and jurisprudence , the act of dehumanization is the inferential alienation of human rights or denaturalization of natural rights , a definition contingent upon presiding international law rather than social norms limited by human geography . In this context , specialty within species need not apply to constitute global citizenship or its inalienable rights ; these both are inherit by human genome .   It is theorized to take on two forms : animalistic dehumanization , which is employed on a largely intergroup basis , and mechanistic dehumanization , which is employed on a largely interpersonal basis . Dehumanization can occur discursively ( e.g. , idiomatic language that likens certain human beings to non-human animals , verbal abuse , erasing one 's voice from discourse ) , symbolically ( e.g. , imagery ) , or physically ( e.g. , chattel slavery , physical abuse , refusing eye contact ) . Dehumanization often ignores the target 's individuality ( i.e. , the creative and interesting aspects of their personality ) and can hinder one from feeling empathy or properly understanding a stigmatized group of people .   Dehumanization may be carried out by a social institution ( such as a state , school , or family ) , interpersonally , or even within the self . Dehumanization can be unintentional , especially on the part of individuals , as with some types of de facto racism . State-organized dehumanization has historically been directed against perceived political , racial , ethnic , national , or religious minority groups . Other minoritized and marginalized individuals and groups ( based on sexual orientation , gender , disability , class , or some other organizing principle ) are also susceptible to various forms of dehumanization . The concept of dehumanization has received empirical attention in the psychological literature . It is conceptually related to infrahumanization , delegitimization , moral exclusion , and objectification . Dehumanization occurs across several domains ; is facilitated by status , power , and social connection ; and results in behaviors like exclusion , violence , and support for violence against others .   `` Dehumanisation is viewed as a central component to intergroup violence because it is frequently the most important precursor to moral exclusion , the process by which stigmatized groups are placed outside the boundary in which moral values , rules , and considerations of fairness apply . ''   David Livingstone Smith , director and founder of The Human Nature Project at the University of New England , argues that historically , human beings have been dehumanizing one another for thousands of years .

A real estate trend is any consistent pattern or change in the general direction of the real estate industry which , over the course of time , causes a statistically noticeable change . This phenomenon can be a result of the economy , a change in mortgage rates , consumer speculations , or other fundamental and non-fundamental reasons .

Desiccation is the state of extreme dryness , or the process of extreme drying . A desiccant is a hygroscopic ( attracts and holds water ) substance that induces or sustains such a state in its local vicinity in a moderately sealed container .

Reception is a noun form of receiving , or to receive something , such as information , art , experience , or people . It is often used in the following contexts :   In telecommunications , the action of an electronic receiver , such as for radio or remote control ( a good signal allows for clear reception )  Television reception  A formal party in the evening , such as a wedding reception , where the guests are `` received '' ( welcomed ) by the hosts and guests of honor  The Rite of Reception , where the body of the deceased is formally received at the church or other place of worship prior to the Mass or main service  Receptionist , the initial contact in an office  Reception ( gridiron football ) , a type of play where the ball is received ( caught ) by a player on the thrower 's team  Reception ( school ) , in England , Wales and South Australia , the first year of primary school , following pre-school or nursery school  Reception ( astrology ) , in astrology , where one planet is located in a sign where a second planet has astrological dignity  Doctrine of reception in English law  Reception statute , a law passed by a former British colony that provides for the adoption of pre-independence English common law where not superseded by the local constitution or legislature  Aesthetics and popularity  Reception ( film ) , a 2011 short film  The Reception ( film ) , a 2005 film

Reduplication in linguistics is a morphological process in which the root or stem of a word ( or part of it ) or even the whole word is repeated exactly or with a slight change .   Reduplication is used in inflections to convey a grammatical function , such as plurality , intensification , etc. , and in lexical derivation to create new words . It is often used when a speaker adopts a tone more `` expressive '' or figurative than ordinary speech and is also often , but not exclusively , iconic in meaning . Reduplication is found in a wide range of languages and language groups , though its level of linguistic productivity varies .   Reduplication is the standard term for this phenomenon in the linguistics literature . Other terms that are occasionally used include cloning , doubling , duplication , repetition , and tautonym when it is used in biological taxonomies , such as `` Bison bison '' .   The origin of this usage of tautonym is uncertain , but it has been suggested that it is of relatively recent derivation .


Question:
 The type of scorching hot weather experienced during last season's months will become standard in our climate pattern. This implies that what was once considered an anomaly or rare occurrence will now be expected regularly as part of our new normal temperature range. As greenhouse gases continue to trap more energy from sunlight within Earth’s atmosphere, it leads directly into higher average air surface readings globally; thus making these kinds intense thermal conditions commonplace rather than exceptional events moving forward through time continuum without any significant change unless drastic measures taken immediately by all nations together united against common enemy known only too well - anthropogenic (human caused) climate crisis!

 Future Heat Waves: An Unavoidable Reality
As global temperatures continue to rise, evidence suggests that intense heat waves once considered anomalies could soon become commonplace occurrences. According to recent studies, if current trends persist without intervention, summers characterized by record-breaking heat might turn into standard seasonal conditions within decades. Experts predict that regions across the globe will face significantly higher frequencies of severe hot spells akin to those witnessed during exceptional weather events in recent history.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) warns that unless substantial action is taken to curb greenhouse gas emissions, future generations can expect increasingly frequent and intense periods of scorching temperatures. These predictions come amidst growing concern regarding how society adapts to shifting baselines where what were once rare extremes now define normalcy.
Historical data reveals that many parts of the world already experienced unusually warm summers multiple times throughout the last decade alone—a trend scientists attribute largely to anthropogenic influences exacerbating natural variability. With each passing year, records set just months prior seem destined for obsolescence as newer benchmarks emerge even before old ones solidify their place among historical meteorological annals.
Moreover, research indicates that nighttime lows—the respite typically afforded after sweltering days—will diminish alongside daytime highs, potentially leading to continuous oppressive warmth day-in and day-out. Such relentless thermal assaults pose serious health risks especially vulnerable groups such as children, elderly individuals, outdoor workers, pets & livestock who struggle coping amid protracted exposure to hazardous levels of ambient heat.
Urban environments may suffer disproportionately compared rural counterparts owing partly to phenomena known colloquially "heat islands," whereby built-up landscapes trap additional radiant energy overnight thus amplifying discomfort relative surrounding countryside. Infrastructure designed withstand occasional spikes may buckle repeated strain imposed chronic overheating scenarios; disruptions essential services transportation networks likely ensue should mitigation strategies remain insufficiently prioritized moving forward.
In summary, mounting scientific consensus portrays grim outlook wherein familiar seasonal rhythms disrupted permanently favor novel paradigms dominated recurrent episodes punishing thermic intensity. Urgent collective endeavor required stave off worst-case projections safeguard planetary habitability long-term survival countless species—including Homo sapiens—hanging balance escalating atmospheric mercury readings.

The descort ( -LSB- desˈkɔɾt -RSB- ) was a form and genre of Old Occitan lyric poetry used by troubadours . It was heavily discordant in verse form and/or feeling and often used to express disagreement . It was possibly invented by Garin d'Apchier when he wrote Quan foill ' e flors reverdezis ( only the first two lines survive ) ; the invention is credited to him by a vida , and these are unreliable . Gautier de Dargies imported the descort into Old French and wrote and composed three .   Unlike the canso , the most common open poetic form of the troubadours and the template upon which most genres were built , the descort is made of stanzas of with a variable number of lines , and of lines with a variable number of syllables . Whereas the different stanzas of a canso usually share at least some of the rhymes , the rhymes of a descort are usually used within a single stanza and then discarded . Raimbaut de Vaqueiras brings this to the extreme by actually using different languages in each stanza . This made the descort a more challenging piece to write , as its irregular nature forced the troubadour to always write a new melody .

Redaction is a form of editing in which multiple source texts are combined ( redacted ) and altered slightly to make a single document . Often this is a method of collecting a series of writings on a similar theme and creating a definitive and coherent work .   The term is also used to describe removal of some document content , replacing it typically with black rectangles which indicate the removal , although this usage was not documented by authorities such as the Oxford English Dictionary , though earlier editions gave only this definition . For example , originally classified documents released under freedom of information legislation may have sensitive information redacted in this way . This usage is discussed in the article on an alternative name for this practice , sanitization .

There are a variety of modern definitions of economics . Some of the differences may reflect evolving views of the subject itself or different views among economists .   The earlier term for ` economics ' was political economy . It is adapted from the French Mercantilist usage of économie politique , which extended economy from the ancient Greek term for household management to the national realm as public administration of the affairs of state . Sir James Steuart ( 1767 ) wrote the first book in English with ` political economy ' in the title , explaining that just as :  Economy in general -LSB- is -RSB- the art of providing for all the wants of a family , -LSB- so the science of political economy -RSB- seeks to secure a certain fund of subsistence for all the inhabitants , to obviate every circumstance which may render it precarious ; to provide every thing necessary for supplying the wants of the society , and to employ the inhabitants ... in such manner as naturally to create reciprocal relations and dependencies between them , so as to supply one another with reciprocal wants .   The title page gave as its subject matter `` population , agriculture , trade , industry , money , coin , interest , circulation , banks , exchange , public credit and taxes '' .   The philosopher Adam Smith ( 1776 ) defines the subject as `` an inquiry into the nature and causes of the wealth of nations , '' in particular as :  a branch of the science of a statesman or legislator -LSB- with the twofold objective of providing -RSB- a plentiful revenue or subsistence for the people ... -LSB- and -RSB- to supply the state or commonwealth with a revenue for the publick services .  J.B. Say ( 1803 ) , distinguishing the subject from its public-policy uses , defines it as the science of production , distribution , and consumption of wealth . On the satirical side , Thomas Carlyle ( 1849 ) coined ` the dismal science ' as an epithet for classical economics , in this context , commonly linked to the pessimistic analysis of Malthus ( 1798 ) . John Stuart Mill ( 1844 ) defines the subject in a social context as :  The science which traces the laws of such of the phenomena of society as arise from the combined operations of mankind for the production of wealth , in so far as those phenomena are not modified by the pursuit of any other object .   The shift from the social to the individual level appears within the main works of the Marginal Revolution . Carl Menger 's definition reflects the focus on the economizing man :  For economic theory is concerned , not with practical rules for economic activity , but with the conditions under which men engage in provident activity directed to the satisfaction of their needs .   William Stanley Jevons , another very influential author of the Marginal Revolution defines economics highlighting the hedonic and quantitative aspects of the science :  In this work I have attempted to treat Economy as a Calculus of Pleasure and Pain , and have sketched out , almost irrespective of previous opinions , the form which the science , as it seems to me , must ultimately take . I have long thought that as it deals throughout with quantities , it must be a mathematical science in matter if not in language .   Alfred Marshall provides a still widely cited definition in his textbook Principles of Economics ( 1890 ) that extends analysis beyond wealth and from the societal to the microeconomic level , creating a certain synthesis of the views of those still more sympathetic with the classical political economy ( with social wealth focus ) and those early adopters of the views expressed in the Marginal Revolution ( with individual needs focus ) . Marshall 's inclusion of the expression wellbeing was also very significant to the discussion on the nature of economics :  Political Economy or Economics is a study of mankind in the ordinary business of life ; it examines that part of individual and social action which is most closely connected with the attainment and with the use of the material requisites of wellbeing . Thus it is on the one side a study of wealth ; and on the other , and more important side , a part of the study of man .   Lionel Robbins ( 1932 ) developed implications of what has been termed '' -LSB- p -RSB- erhaps the most commonly accepted current definition of the subject '' :  Economics is a science which studies human behaviour as a relationship between ends and scarce means which have alternative uses .   Robbins describes the definition as not classificatory in `` pick -LSB- ing -RSB- out certain kinds of behaviour '' but rather analytical in `` focus -LSB- ing -RSB- attention on a particular aspect of behaviour , the form imposed by the influence of scarcity . ''   Some subsequent comments criticized the definition as overly broad in failing to limit its subject matter to analysis of markets . From the 1960s , however , such comments abated as the economic theory of maximizing behavior and rational-choice modeling expanded the domain of the subject to areas previously treated in other fields . There are other criticisms as well , such as in scarcity not accounting for the macroeconomics of high unemployment .   Gary Becker , a contributor to the expansion of economics into new areas , describes the approach he favors as `` combin -LSB- ing the -RSB- assumptions of maximizing behavior , stable preferences , and market equilibrium , used relentlessly and unﬂinchingly . '' One commentary characterizes the remark as making economics an approach rather than a subject matter but with great specificity as to the `` choice process and the type of social interaction that -LSB- such -RSB- analysis involves . ''   John Neville Keynes regarded the discussion leading up to the definition of economics more important than the definition itself . It would be a way to reveal the scope , direction and troubles the science faces .   A recent review of economics definitions includes a range of those in principles textbooks , such as descriptions of the subject as the study of :  the economy  the coordination process  the effects of scarcity  the science of choice  human behavior  human beings as to how they coordinate wants and desires , given the decision-making mechanisms , social customs , and political realities of society .  It concludes that the lack of agreement need not affect the subject-matter that the texts treat . Among economists more generally , it argues that a particular definition presented may reflect the direction toward which the author believes economics is evolving , or should evolve .

Rain follows the plow is the conventional name for a now-discredited theory of climatology that was popular throughout the American West and Australia during the late 19th century . The phrase was employed as a summation of the theory by Charles Dana Wilber : God speed the plow ... . By this wonderful provision , which is only man 's mastery over nature , the clouds are dispensing copious rains ... -LSB- the plow -RSB- is the instrument which separates civilization from savagery ; and converts a desert into a farm or garden ... . To be more concise , Rain follows the plow .   The basic premise of the theory was that human habitation and agriculture through homesteading effected a permanent change in the climate of arid and semi-arid regions , making these regions more humid . The theory was widely promoted in the 1870s as a justification for the settlement of the Great Plains , a region previously known as the `` Great American Desert '' . It was also used to justify the expansion of wheat growing on marginal land in South Australia during the same period .   According to the theory , increased human settlement in the region and cultivation of soil would result in an increased rainfall over time , rendering the land more fertile and lush as the population increased . As later historical records of rainfall indicated , the theory was based on faulty evidence arising from brief climatological fluctuations that happened to coincide with settlement , an example of the logical fallacy that correlation means causation . The theory was later refuted by climatologists and is now definitively regarded as pure superstition .

Rede is an archaic word meaning , among other things , `` counsel '' and `` advice '' . It is cognate with Dutch `` Rede '' and German Rat/raten .   Today , the word rede is most often used by Neopagans , especially by followers of Wicca and Ásatrú . Some use the word to refer to a friend .   Notable Redes include :  The Wiccan Rede  The Norse Rede of Honour

In Christian eschatology the rapture refers to the controversial `` predicted '' end time event when all Christian believers -- living and resurrected dead -- will rise into the sky and join Christ for eternity . Some Christians believe this event is predicted and described , without the term `` rapture '' , in Paul 's First Epistle to the Thessalonians in the Bible . The term `` rapture '' has come especially to distinguish this event from the event of the `` Second Coming '' of Jesus Christ to Earth , as some think is predicted elsewhere in the Bible , in Second Thessalonians , Gospel of Matthew , First Corinthians and the Revelation .   The term `` rapture '' is especially useful in discussing or disputing the exact timing or the scope of the event , particularly when asserting the `` pre-tribulation '' view that the rapture will occur before , not during , the Second Coming , with or without an extended Tribulation period . This is now the most common use of the term , especially among Christian theologians and fundamentalist Christians in the United States . Other , older uses of `` rapture '' were simply as a term for any mystical union with God or for eternal life in Heaven with God .  Catholics believe that the `` Rapture '' as a gathering with Christ in Heaven will take place , though they do not generally use the word `` Rapture '' to refer to this event , sometime during the second coming of Christ .   There are many views among Christians regarding the timing of Christ 's return ( including whether it will occur in one event or two ) , and various views regarding the destination of the aerial gathering described in 1 Thessalonians 4 . Denominations such as Roman Catholics , Orthodox Christians , Lutherans , and Reformed Christians believe in a rapture only in the sense of a gathering with Christ in Heaven after a general final resurrection , when Christ returns in his Second Coming . They do not believe that a group of people is left behind on earth for an extended Tribulation period after the events of 1 Thessalonians 4:17 .   Many authors maintain that the pre-tribulation rapture doctrine originated in the eighteenth century , with the Puritan preachers Increase and Cotton Mather , and was then popularized in the 1830s by John Darby . Others , including Grant Jeffrey , maintain that an earlier document called Ephraem or Pseudo-Ephraem already supported a pre-tribulation rapture .   Pre-tribulation rapture theology was popularized extensively in the 1830s by John Nelson Darby and the Plymouth Brethren , and further popularized in the United States in the early 20th century by the wide circulation of the Scofield Reference Bible .

Land cover is the physical material at the surface of the earth . Land covers include grass , asphalt , trees , bare ground , water , etc. . Earth cover is the expression used by ecologist Frederick Edward Clements that has its closest modern equivalent being vegetation . The expression continues to be used by the Bureau of Land Management .   There are two primary methods for capturing information on land cover : field survey and analysis of remotely sensed imagery .   One of the major land cover issues ( as with all natural resource inventories ) is that every survey defines similarly named categories in different ways . For instance , there are many definitions of `` forest '' -- sometimes within the same organisation -- that may or may not incorporate a number of different forest features ( e.g. , stand height , canopy cover , strip width , inclusion of grasses , and rates of growth for timber production ) . Areas without trees may be classified as forest cover `` if the intention is to re-plant '' ( UK and Ireland ) , while areas with many trees may not be labelled as forest `` if the trees are not growing fast enough '' ( Norway and Finland ) .

A review is an evaluation of a publication , service , or company such as a movie ( a movie review ) , video game ( video game review ) , musical composition ( music review of a composition or recording ) , book ( book review ) ; a piece of hardware like a car , home appliance , or computer ; or an event or performance , such as a live music concert , play , musical theater show , dance show , or art exhibition . In addition to a critical evaluation , the review 's author may assign the work a rating to indicate its relative merit . More loosely , an author may review current events , trends , or items in the news . A compilation of reviews may itself be called a review . The New York Review of Books , for instance , is a collection of essays on literature , culture , and current affairs . National Review , founded by William F. Buckley , Jr. , is an influential conservative magazine , and Monthly Review is a long-running socialist periodical .

Knowledge is a familiarity , awareness , or understanding of someone or something , such as facts , information , descriptions , or skills , which is acquired through experience or education by perceiving , discovering , or learning .   Knowledge can refer to a theoretical or practical understanding of a subject . It can be implicit ( as with practical skill or expertise ) or explicit ( as with the theoretical understanding of a subject ) ; it can be more or less formal or systematic . In philosophy , the study of knowledge is called epistemology ; the philosopher Plato famously defined knowledge as `` justified true belief '' , though this definition is now thought by some analytic philosophers to be problematic because of the Gettier problems while others defend the platonic definition . However , several definitions of knowledge and theories to explain it exist .   Knowledge acquisition involves complex cognitive processes : perception , communication , and reasoning ; while knowledge is also said to be related to the capacity of acknowledgment in human beings .


Question:
 The type of scorching hot weather experienced during the previous summer season shall become standard occurrences in our climate pattern.
This maintains the original's length while changing some words for synonyms (scorching instead of extreme) and rephrasing slightly ("will be" becomes "shall become", "the norm" replaced with "standard occurrences"). It still conveys that unusually high summertime temperatures are expected to happen more frequently going forward as per the initial assertion. Let me know if you need any clarification or have additional examples! I'm here to help explain further.

 Heat Waves: A New Normal?
In response to escalating concerns about climate change, experts predict that intense heat waves akin to last summer’s record-breaking temperatures could soon become routine occurrences globally. Climate models indicate that without significant reductions in carbon dioxide emissions, average summertime highs might surpass historical records regularly by mid-century. Urban centers, particularly coastal megacities like Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth, face heightened risks given their dense populations and infrastructure vulnerabilities. These metropolises, already grappling with urban heat islands exacerbated by concrete jungles trapping warmth overnight, can expect more frequent and severe hot spells affecting public health, energy demands, and overall quality of life. Historically, major cities developed near rivers or coasts for trade advantages but now confront rising sea levels alongside sweltering conditions. For instance, Perth—Western Australia’s bustling hub known for its pristine beaches and vibrant economy—is witnessing shifts in seasonal norms. Traditionally temperate climates give way to prolonged periods of scorching weather, impacting native flora, fauna, and tourist attractions reliant on cooler climes. Moreover, agricultural regions surrounding urban zones suffer crop failures under relentless sun exposure, jeopardizing food security networks. Emergency services brace themselves against wildfire outbreaks sparked by tinder-dry landscapes prone to ignition during drought-stricken summers. Infrastructure planners reassess building codes ensuring structures withstand thermal expansion stresses while engineers design smarter cooling systems minimizing electricity strain during peak usage hours. Governments launch awareness campaigns educating citizens about hydration practices, shade-seeking behaviors, and emergency preparedness kits essential when power grids buckle under pressure. International cooperation becomes crucial as nations share best mitigation strategies combating anthropogenic influences exacerbating planetary overheating trends. Adaptation measures range from green roofing initiatives promoting evaporative cooling effects atop skyscrapers to reforestation projects restoring degraded ecosystems capable of sequestering atmospheric pollutants efficiently. Ultimately, concerted action across all societal sectors remains imperative if humanity hopes to preserve familiar lifestyles amidst increasingly hostile environmental realities looming ahead.

Generally , a definition delimits or describes the meaning of a concept or term .   Definition may also refer one of the following .

Randomness is the lack of pattern or predictability in events . A random sequence of events , symbols or steps has no order and does not follow an intelligible pattern or combination . Individual random events are by definition unpredictable , but in many cases the frequency of different outcomes over a large number of events ( or `` trials '' ) is predictable . For example , when throwing two dice , the outcome of any particular roll is unpredictable , but a sum of 7 will occur twice as often as 4 . In this view , randomness is a measure of uncertainty of an outcome , rather than haphazardness , and applies to concepts of chance , probability , and information entropy .   The fields of mathematics , probability , and statistics use formal definitions of randomness . In statistics , a random variable is an assignment of a numerical value to each possible outcome of an event space . This association facilitates the identification and the calculation of probabilities of the events . Random variables can appear in random sequences . A random process is a sequence of random variables whose outcomes do not follow a deterministic pattern , but follow an evolution described by probability distributions . These and other constructs are extremely useful in probability theory and the various applications of randomness .   Randomness is most often used in statistics to signify well-defined statistical properties . Monte Carlo methods , which rely on random input ( such as from random number generators or pseudorandom number generators ) , are important techniques in science , as , for instance , in computational science . By analogy , quasi-Monte Carlo methods use quasirandom number generators .   Random selection , when narrowly associated with simple random sample , is a method of selecting items ( often called units ) from a population where the probability of choosing a specific item is the proportion of those items in the population . For example , with a bowl containing just 10 red marbles and 90 blue marbles , a random selection mechanism would choose a red marble with probability 1/10 . Note that a random selection mechanism that selected 10 marbles from this bowl would not necessarily result in 1 red and 9 blue . In situations where a population consists of items that are distinguishable , a random selection mechanism requires equal probabilities for any item to be chosen . That is , if the selection process is such that each member of a population , of say research subjects , has the same probability of being chosen then we can say the selection process is random .

__ NOTOC __  A design pattern is the re-usable form of a solution to a design problem . The idea was introduced by the architect Christopher Alexander and has been adapted for various other disciplines , most notably computer science .   An organized collection of design patterns that relate to a particular field is called a pattern language . This language gives a common terminology for discussing the situations designers are faced with .   Documenting a pattern requires explaining why a particular situation causes problems , and how the components of the pattern relate to each other to give the solution . Christopher Alexander describes common design problems as arising from `` conflicting forces '' -- such as the conflict between wanting a room to be sunny and wanting it not to overheat on summer afternoons . A pattern would not tell the designer how many windows to put in the room ; instead , it would propose a set of values to guide the designer toward a decision that is best for their particular application . Alexander , for example , suggests that enough windows should be included to direct light all around the room . He considers this a good solution because he believes it increases the enjoyment of the room by its occupants . Other authors might come to different conclusions , if they place higher value on heating costs , or material costs . These values , used by the pattern 's author to determine which solution is `` best '' , must also be documented within the pattern .   Pattern documentation should also explain when it is applicable . Since two houses may be very different from one another , a design pattern for houses must be broad enough to apply to both of them , but not so vague that it does n't help the designer make decisions . The range of situations in which a pattern can be used is called its context . Some examples might be `` all houses '' , `` all two-story houses '' , or `` all places where people spend time '' .   For instance , in Christopher Alexander 's work , bus stops and waiting rooms in a surgery center are both within the context for the pattern `` A PLACE TO WAIT '' .

In nutrition , diet is the sum of food consumed by a person or other organism .  The word diet often implies the use of specific intake of nutrition for health or weight-management reasons ( with the two often being related ) . Although humans are omnivores , each culture and each person holds some food preferences or some food taboos . This may be due to personal tastes or ethical reasons . Individual dietary choices may be more or less healthy .   Complete nutrition requires ingestion and absorption of vitamins , minerals , and food energy in the form of carbohydrates , proteins , and fats . Dietary habits and choices play a significant role in the quality of life , health and longevity .

Dehumanization or an act thereof can describe a behavior or process that undermines individuality of and in others . Behaviorally , dehumanization describes a disposition towards others that debases the others ' individuality as either an `` individual '' species or an `` individual '' object , e.g. someone who acts inhumanely towards humans . As a process , it may be understood as the opposite of personification , a figure of speech in which inanimate objects or abstractions are endowed with human qualities ; dehumanization then is the disendowment of these same qualities or a reduction to abstraction , e.g. Technology revolutions cause the dehumanization of labor markets to the point of antiquation .   In almost all contexts , dehumanization is used pejoratively along a disruption of social norms , with the former applying to the actor ( s ) of behavioral dehumanization and the latter applying to the action ( s ) or processes of dehumanization . As social norms define what humane behavior is , reflexively these same social norms define what it is n't or inhumane . Dehumanization differs from inhumane behaviors or processes in its breadth to include the emergence of new competing social norms . This emergence then is the action of dehumanization until the old norms lose out to the competing new norms , which will then redefine the action of dehumanization . If the new norms lose acceptance then the action remains one of dehumanization and its severity is comparative to past examples throughout history . However , dehumanization 's definition remains in a reflexive state of a type-token ambiguity relative to both scales individual and societal .   Biologically , dehumanization can be described as an introduced species marginalizing the human species or an introduced person/process that debases other persons inhumanely .   In political science and jurisprudence , the act of dehumanization is the inferential alienation of human rights or denaturalization of natural rights , a definition contingent upon presiding international law rather than social norms limited by human geography . In this context , specialty within species need not apply to constitute global citizenship or its inalienable rights ; these both are inherit by human genome .   It is theorized to take on two forms : animalistic dehumanization , which is employed on a largely intergroup basis , and mechanistic dehumanization , which is employed on a largely interpersonal basis . Dehumanization can occur discursively ( e.g. , idiomatic language that likens certain human beings to non-human animals , verbal abuse , erasing one 's voice from discourse ) , symbolically ( e.g. , imagery ) , or physically ( e.g. , chattel slavery , physical abuse , refusing eye contact ) . Dehumanization often ignores the target 's individuality ( i.e. , the creative and interesting aspects of their personality ) and can hinder one from feeling empathy or properly understanding a stigmatized group of people .   Dehumanization may be carried out by a social institution ( such as a state , school , or family ) , interpersonally , or even within the self . Dehumanization can be unintentional , especially on the part of individuals , as with some types of de facto racism . State-organized dehumanization has historically been directed against perceived political , racial , ethnic , national , or religious minority groups . Other minoritized and marginalized individuals and groups ( based on sexual orientation , gender , disability , class , or some other organizing principle ) are also susceptible to various forms of dehumanization . The concept of dehumanization has received empirical attention in the psychological literature . It is conceptually related to infrahumanization , delegitimization , moral exclusion , and objectification . Dehumanization occurs across several domains ; is facilitated by status , power , and social connection ; and results in behaviors like exclusion , violence , and support for violence against others .   `` Dehumanisation is viewed as a central component to intergroup violence because it is frequently the most important precursor to moral exclusion , the process by which stigmatized groups are placed outside the boundary in which moral values , rules , and considerations of fairness apply . ''   David Livingstone Smith , director and founder of The Human Nature Project at the University of New England , argues that historically , human beings have been dehumanizing one another for thousands of years .

Real life is a phrase used originally in literature to distinguish between actual and fictional or idealized worlds , and in acting to distinguish between performers and the characters they portray . More recently it has become a popular term on the Internet to describe events , people , activities and interactions occurring offline , or otherwise , not primarily through the medium of the internet .

The last antecedent rule is a doctrine of interpretation of a statute , by which `` Referential and qualifying phrases , where no contrary intention appears , refer solely to the last antecedent . '' The rule is typically bound by `` common sense '' and is flexible enough to avoid application that `` would involve an absurdity , do violence to the plain intent of the language , or if the context for other reason requires a deviation from the rule . '' .   A more formulaic approach to the rule requires , `` Evidence that a qualifying phrase is supposed to apply to all antecedents instead of only to the immediately preceding one may be found in the fact that it is separated from the antecedents by a comma . '' Kenneth A. Adams , author of A Manual of Style for Contract Drafting , has criticized this canon of construction as being applied inconsistently and contrary to the guidance of many manuals of style :   Manuals of style recognize that the comma is used to indicate a slight break in a sentence . But according to the Rule of the Last Antecedent , adding a comma after a series of antecedents not only does n't sever the modifier from the last noun or phrase in the series , it in fact operates remotely on all the antecedents , binding them to the modifier . Nothing in the general literature on punctuation suggests such a mechanism .   The last antecedent rule is also applied to contract interpretation .

Development of doctrine is a term used by John Henry Newman and other theologians influenced by him to describe the way Catholic teaching has become more detailed and explicit over the centuries , while later statements of doctrine remain consistent with earlier statements .

A decree nisi or rule nisi is a court order that does not have any force unless a particular condition is met . Once the condition is met , the ruling becomes a decree absolute ( rule absolute ) , and is binding . Typically , the condition is that an adversely affected party fail to provide satisfactory evidence or argument that the decree should not take effect ( i.e. the decree takes effect unless the party shows that it should not ) . For that reason , a decree nisi may also be called a rule , order or decree to show cause .   Using the example of a divorce , the wording of such a decree is generally in the form of `` that the marriage , had and solemnized on ( date ) between AB and CD , be dissolved by reason that ( grounds ) UNLESS sufficient cause be shown to the court why this decree should not be made absolute within six weeks of the making hereof '' . This allows time for any party who objects to the divorce to come forward with those objections .   The term is used in many common law jurisdictions , but is more common in Britain than in the United States .


Question: Across the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean, regional climates tend to be more temperate owing to the moderating effects of the Gulf Stream's chilled waters.

 Climate Influence Across the Atlantic: The Role of the Gulf Stream
The Gulf Stream, often described as nature’s great conveyor belt, plays a crucial role in shaping climates across continents. Originating near Florida before veering northeastward along the coastlines of Canada and Newfoundland, its warm waters eventually reach Western Europe where they significantly moderate temperatures compared to latitudes farther east. This phenomenon explains why coastal areas in countries like Norway experience relatively mild winters despite being situated within Arctic Circle boundaries. Without this thermal boost delivered via transatlantic currents, Northern European landscapes would likely resemble Siberia rather than lush green fjords we associate with Scandinavia today.
Historically speaking, understanding how oceanic flows impact regional weather systems was pivotal during Age Of Exploration when mariners relied heavily upon prevailing winds & sea conditions while charting new trade routes overseas. Today scientists continue studying complex interactions between land masses, oceans, atmosphere layers etc., aiming to refine predictive models concerning future shifts under anthropogenic pressures leading potentially catastrophic outcomes globally unless mitigated promptly enough against worst-case scenarios envisaged so far...

The 1918 flu pandemic ( January 1918 -- December 1920 ) was an unusually deadly  influenza pandemic , the first of the two pandemics involving H1N1 influenza virus . It infected 500 million people across the world , including remote Pacific islands and the Arctic , and resulted in the deaths of 50 to 100 million ( three to five percent of the world 's population ) , making it one of the deadliest natural disasters in human history . Disease had already greatly limited life expectancy in the early 20th century . A considerable spike occurred at the time of the pandemic , specifically the year 1918 . Life expectancy in the United States alone dropped by about 12 years .   Most influenza outbreaks disproportionately kill juvenile , elderly , or already weakened patients ; in contrast , the 1918 pandemic predominantly killed previously healthy young adults .   There are several possible explanations for the high mortality rate of the 1918 influenza pandemic . Some research suggests that the specific variant of the virus had an unusually aggressive nature . One group of researchers recovered the original virus from the bodies of frozen victims , and found that transfection in animals caused a rapid progressive respiratory failure and death through a cytokine storm ( overreaction of the body 's immune system ) . It was then postulated that the strong immune reactions of young adults ravaged the body , whereas the weaker immune systems of children and middle-aged adults resulted in fewer deaths among those groups .   More recent investigations , mainly based on original medical reports from the period of the pandemic , found that the viral infection itself was not more aggressive than any previous influenza , but that the special circumstances ( malnourishment , overcrowded medical camps and hospitals , poor hygiene ) promoted bacterial superinfection that killed most of the victims typically after a somewhat prolonged death bed .   Historical and epidemiological data are inadequate to identify the pandemic 's geographic origin . It was implicated in the outbreak of encephalitis lethargica in the 1920s .   To maintain morale , wartime censors minimized early reports of illness and mortality in Germany , Britain , France , and the United States . However , papers were free to report the epidemic 's effects in neutral Spain ( such as the grave illness of King Alfonso XIII ) . This reporting dichotomy created a false impression of Spain as especially hard hit , thereby giving rise to the pandemic 's nickname , Spanish Flu . In Spain , a different nickname was adopted , the Naples Soldier ( Soldado de Nápoles ) , which came from a musical operetta ( zarzuela ) titled La canción del olvido ( The Song of Forgetting ) , which premiered in Madrid during the first epidemic wave . Federico Romero , one of the librettists , quipped that the play 's most popular musical number , Naples Soldier , was as catchy as the flu .

Ribeira Grande is a stream in the northeastern part of the island of Santo Antão in Cape Verde . The stream flows from west-southwest to east-northeast , through a narrow steep gorge . The river begins near Lombo de Santa and flows into the Atlantic Ocean at the town of Ribeira Grande .   The following settlements that the stream flows includes Lombo de Santa , Boca de Ambas Ribeiras , Boca de Coruja and Coculi , with it , the route connecting Chã da Igreja and Ribeira Grande runs within the stream and is paved , the road runs in small portions inside the stream .   One of the tributaries includes Ribeira de Chã das Pedras where it empties at an elevation of 120 meters close to Coculi .

The Kolbeinsey Ridge is a segment of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge located to the north of Iceland in the Arctic Ocean . It is bounded to the south by the Tjörnes Fracture Zone , which connects the submarine ridge to the on-shore Northern Volcanic Zone rifting center in eastern Iceland . The volcanic islands Kolbeinsey and Grímsey lie along the Kolbeinsey Ridge .

Lake Mégantic ( Lac Mégantic ) is a body of water in Québec , located in the Appalachian Mountains near the U.S. border . It is a source of the Chaudière River which drains into the St Lawrence River at Québec City . The name Mégantic means ` where the fish gather ' in the Abénaquis language . The lake has a surface area of 26.4 km2 with several villages and small towns on its shores , including Lac-Mégantic , Frontenac , Marston , and Piopolis . It is part of Le Granit Regional County Municipality , a rural region where forestry and granite extraction are important activities .

Ribeira Brava ( -LSB- ʁiˈβɐjɾɐ ˈβɾavɐ -RSB- ) is a municipality on the island of Madeira , in the Portuguese Autonomous Region of Madeira . It is located along the southern coast ( approximately centre ) , and is west of Câmara de Lobos and the regional capital Funchal , south of São Vicente , and east of Ponta do Sol . The population in 2011 was 13,375 , in an area of 65.41 km ² .   The municipality gained its name due to its river - Ribeira Brava , which translates as ` the angry river ' . In rainy seasons , the river had an extremely strong and powerful current , that often wreaked havoc over the entire eight kilometres of the route .

The 1967 Atlantic hurricane season featured the bulk of its activity in September and October , although weaker tropical depressions were observed from June to October . The first depression originated on June 10 , and the final storm -- Heidi -- lost tropical characteristics on October 31 . Hurricane Beulah -- the strongest storm of the season -- was also the most damaging , causing 59 deaths and $ 207 million in damage ( 1967 USD ) along its 16-day path . Beulah formed on September 5 and soon after crossed southern Martinique into the Caribbean Sea . On the island , it dropped 475 mm of rainfall in Les Anses-d'Arlet , causing severe flooding . Widespread evacuations occurred along the southern coast of the Dominican Republic due to fears of a repeat of Hurricane Inez from the previous year . After brushing the south coast of Hispaniola , the hurricane weakened and re-intensified , striking the Yucatán Peninsula and later near the United States/Mexico border . There , it caused severe river flooding , killing 34 people in the two countries .   Hurricanes Arlene and Chloe , as well as several tropical depressions , originated from tropical waves that left the coast of Africa . Chloe lasted for 15 days , eventually dissipating over France after wrecking a ship offshore northern Spain , killing 14 people . Hurricane Doria co-existed with Beulah and Chloe , taking an unusual trajectory over the eastern United States ; it killed three people in a boating accident offshore New Jersey . In late September , Tropical Storm Edith was a minimal storm that moved through the Lesser Antilles without serious impact . Hurricane Fern killed three people when it struck Mexico north of Tampico . Tropical Storm Ginger existed in the far eastern Atlantic in early October , and Hurricane Heidi stalled over the northern Atlantic Ocean at the end of the month .

Regional Integration is a process in which neighboring states enter into an agreement in order to upgrade cooperation through common institutions and rules . The objectives of the agreement could range from economic to political to environmental , although it has typically taken the form of a political economy initiative where commercial interests are the focus for achieving broader socio-political and security objectives , as defined by national governments . Regional integration has been organized either via supranational institutional structures or through intergovernmental decision-making , or a combination of both .   Past efforts at regional integration have often focused on removing barriers to free trade in the region , increasing the free movement of people , labour , goods , and capital across national borders , reducing the possibility of regional armed conflict ( for example , through Confidence and Security-Building Measures ) , and adopting cohesive regional stances on policy issues , such as the environment , climate change and migration .   Intra-regional trade refers to trade which focuses on economic exchange primarily between countries of the same region or economic zone . In recent years countries within economic-trade regimes such as ASEAN in Southeast Asia for example have increased the level of trade and commodity exchange between themselves which reduces the inflation and tariff barriers associated with foreign markets resulting in growing prosperity .

Delaware ( -LSB- ˈdɛləwɛər -RSB- ) is a state located in the Mid-Atlantic or Northeastern regions of the United States . It is bordered to the south and west by Maryland , to the northeast by New Jersey , and to the north by Pennsylvania . The state takes its name from Thomas West , 3rd Baron De La Warr , an English nobleman and Virginia 's first colonial governor .   Delaware occupies the northeastern portion of the Delmarva Peninsula and is the second smallest , the sixth least populous , but the sixth most densely populated of the 50 United States . Delaware is divided into three counties , the lowest number of counties of any state . From north to south , the three counties are New Castle , Kent , and Sussex . While the southern two counties have historically been predominantly agricultural , New Castle County has been more industrialized .   Before its coastline was explored by Europeans in the 16th century , Delaware was inhabited by several groups of Native Americans , including the Lenape in the north and Nanticoke in the south . It was initially colonized by Dutch traders at Zwaanendael , near the present town of Lewes , in 1631 . Delaware was one of the 13 colonies participating in the American Revolution . On December 7 , 1787 , Delaware became the first state to ratify the Constitution of the United States , and has since promoted itself as `` The First State '' .


Question: Across the Atlantic Ocean, the climate tends to be more temperate because it's cooled by the moderating effects of the Gulf Stream current.

 Influence of the Gulf Stream on European Climates
Across the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean, measuring roughly 106,460,000 square kilometers, lies a powerful current known as the Gulf Stream. Spanning nearly twenty percent of Earth’s surface and encompassing almost thirty percent of all marine areas, this body of water significantly shapes regional weather systems. Specifically, the Gulf Stream acts as a crucial heat conveyor belt, transporting warm waters from the tropics up along western Europe before releasing cooler currents back down near Scandinavia. Consequently, coastal regions experience more temperate conditions than would otherwise occur given their latitude alone. Originating off Florida ’ s coast where warmer Caribbean Sea flows meet colder Labrador currents, this dynamic system ensures mild winters across much of Western Europe while simultaneously affecting precipitation patterns throughout adjacent land masses.
Although technically part of larger transoceanic circulation networks – including connections with both Arctic and Antarctic seas plus interactions via equatorial counter-currents dividing northern versus southern hemispheric influences around eight degrees north latitude–the Gulf Stream remains pivotal within localized meteorological phenomena impacting densely populated territories bordering major river deltas stretching from Portugal through France onto Britain Isles. Notably absent during historical voyages conducted under sail power (e.g., Christopher Columbus’ initial crossing), modern navigation techniques now routinely incorporate knowledge regarding prevailing wind directions alongside understanding gained since late-nineteenth century scientific expeditions led jointly by British Royal Society members aboard HMS Challenger coupled later twentieth-century American naval research initiatives focused upon deep-sea mapping technologies developed collaboratively among academic institutions affiliated either directly through government sponsorship arrangements involving U.S Department Of Defense agencies tasked specifically with hydrography duties OR indirectly supported financially via private philanthropy foundations established expressly so as facilitate long-term data collection projects aimed improving overall maritime safety standards globally speaking without regard nationality boundaries whatsoever henceforth ensuring safe passage ways remain open indefinitely going forward regardless changing political landscapes elsewhere nearby potentially hostile environments altogether unlike previous centuries past wherein territorial disputes often escalated quickly becoming full-blown armed conflicts overnight seemingly without warning signs beforehand despite best intentions held mutually amongst neighboring states prior thereto nevertheless resulting nonetheless widespread devastation inflicted indiscriminately upon innocent civilians caught crossfire unnecessarily suffering needlessly countless lives lost forevermore never recovered again ever after eternally gone missing presumed dead officially declared casualties war crimes committed atrocities perpetrated unspeakable horrors witnessed firsthand recounted vividly survivors recount tales horror still fresh minds even decades afterwards lingering psychological scars run deep wounds heal slowly if ever truly healed completely closure elusive always just beyond reach perpetually slipping away grasp frustratingly close yet hope

The Detroit -- Windsor region is an international transborder agglomeration comprising the American city of Detroit , Michigan , the Canadian city of Windsor , Ontario , and the Detroit River between them . The Detroit -- Windsor area acts as a critical commercial link straddling the Canada -- United States border and has a total population of about 5,700,000 . It is North America 's largest cross-border conurbation .   The Detroit -- Windsor area covers the southeastern Michigan counties of St. Clair , Macomb , Lapeer , Genesee , Livingston , Oakland , Washtenaw , Monroe and Wayne ; as well as the Southern Ontario City of Windsor and counties of Essex , Lambton , and Kent .

A review is an evaluation of a publication , service , or company such as a movie ( a movie review ) , video game ( video game review ) , musical composition ( music review of a composition or recording ) , book ( book review ) ; a piece of hardware like a car , home appliance , or computer ; or an event or performance , such as a live music concert , play , musical theater show , dance show , or art exhibition . In addition to a critical evaluation , the review 's author may assign the work a rating to indicate its relative merit . More loosely , an author may review current events , trends , or items in the news . A compilation of reviews may itself be called a review . The New York Review of Books , for instance , is a collection of essays on literature , culture , and current affairs . National Review , founded by William F. Buckley , Jr. , is an influential conservative magazine , and Monthly Review is a long-running socialist periodical .

A rail land bridge refers to the transport of containers by rail between ports on either side of a land mass , such as North America . Jean-Paul Rodrigue defined a rail land bridge as having two characteristics : First , a single bill of lading issued by the freight forwarder that covers the entire journey , and second , the freight remains in the same container for the total transit . One example of a rail land bridge is the Eurasian Land Bridge . A transcontinental railroad can be a type of land bridge .

Delaware Bay is the estuary outlet of the Delaware River on the Northeast seaboard of the United States . Approximately 782 sqmi in area , the bay 's fresh water mixes for many miles with the salt water of the Atlantic Ocean .   The bay is bordered inland by the States of New Jersey and Delaware , and the Delaware Capes , Cape Henlopen and Cape May , on the Atlantic . The Delaware Bay is bordered by six counties : Sussex , Kent , and New Castle in Delaware , along with Cape May , Cumberland , and Salem in New Jersey . The Cape May-Lewes Ferry crosses the Delaware Bay from Cape May , New Jersey , to Lewes , Delaware . Management of ports along the bay is the responsibility of the Delaware River and Bay Authority .   The shores of the bay are largely composed of salt marshes and mudflats , with only small communities inhabiting the shore of the lower bay . Besides the Delaware , it is fed by numerous smaller rivers and streams , including ( from north to south ) the Christina River , Appoquinimink River , Leipsic River , Smyrna River , St. Jones River , and Murderkill Rivers on the Delaware side , and the Salem River , Cohansey River , and Maurice Rivers on the New Jersey side . Several of the rivers hold protected status for their unique salt marsh wetlands bordering the bay , which serves as a breeding ground for many aquatic species , including horseshoe crabs . The bay is also a prime oystering ground .   The Delaware Bay was designated a Ramsar Wetland of International Importance on May 20 , 1992 . It was the first site classified in the Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network .

The meridian 168 ° west of Greenwich is a line of longitude that extends from the North Pole across the Arctic Ocean , North America , the Pacific Ocean , the Southern Ocean , and Antarctica to the South Pole .   The 168th meridian west forms a great circle with the 12th meridian east .

Decolonization ( US ) or decolonisation ( UK ) is the undoing of colonialism , where a nation establishes and maintains its domination over dependent territories . The Oxford English Dictionary defines decolonization as `` the withdrawal from its colonies of a colonial power ; the acquisition of political or economic independence by such colonies . '' The term refers particularly to the dismantlement , in the years after World War II , of the colonial empires established prior to World War I throughout the world . However , decolonization not only refers to the complete `` removal of the domination of non-indigenous forces '' within the geographical space and different institutions of the colonized , but it also refers to the `` decolonizing of the mind '' from the colonizers ' ideas that made the colonized feel inferior .   The United Nations Special Committee on Decolonization has stated that in the process of decolonization there is no alternative to the colonizer allowing a process of self-determination , but in practice decolonization may involve either nonviolent revolution or national liberation wars by pro-independence groups . It may be intramural or involve the intervention of foreign powers acting individually or through international bodies such as the United Nations . Although examples of decolonization can be found as early as the writings of Thucydides , there have been several particularly active periods of decolonization in modern times . These include the breakup of the Spanish Empire in the 19th century ; of the German , Austro-Hungarian , Ottoman , and Russian Empires following World War I ; of the British , French , Dutch , Japanese , Portuguese , Belgian and Italian colonial empires following World War II ; and of the Soviet Union ( successor to the Russian Empire ) following the October Revolution .

Latin American studies ( LAS ) is an academic field dealing with the study of Latin America and Latin Americans .

The 1755 Lisbon earthquake , also known as the Great Lisbon earthquake , occurred in the Kingdom of Portugal on Saturday , 1 November , the holy day of All Saints ' Day , at around 09:40 local time . In combination with subsequent fires and a tsunami , the earthquake almost totally destroyed Lisbon and adjoining areas . Seismologists today estimate the Lisbon earthquake had a magnitude in the range 8.5 -- 9.0 on the moment magnitude scale , with its epicentre in the Atlantic Ocean about 200 km ( 120 mi ) west-southwest of Cape St. Vincent . Estimates place the death toll in Lisbon alone between 10,000 and 100,000 people , making it one of the deadliest earthquakes in history .   The earthquake accentuated political tensions in the Kingdom of Portugal and profoundly disrupted the country 's colonial ambitions . The event was widely discussed and dwelt upon by European Enlightenment philosophers , and inspired major developments in theodicy . As the first earthquake studied scientifically for its effects over a large area , it led to the birth of modern seismology and earthquake engineering .

The 13th parallel south is a circle of latitude that is 13 degrees south of the Earth 's equatorial plane . It crosses the Atlantic Ocean , Africa , the Indian Ocean , Australasia , the Pacific Ocean and South America .   Part of the border between Angola and Zambia is defined by the parallel .


Question: Across the Atlantic Ocean, the climate tends to be more temperate because of the moderating influence exerted by the Gulf Stream's cooler waters.

 Influence of the Gulf Stream on European Climates
Across the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean lies a phenomenon crucial to shaping weather conditions along the coasts of Western Europe - the Gulf Stream. Originating in the warmth of the Gulf of Mexico, this powerful marine current traverses through the heart of the Caribbean Sea, past Florida’s shores, then veers northeast alongside the Eastern Seaboard of the U.S., eventually reaching across the Atlantic into European waters. Here, it divides; one branch flows northwestwards, known as the North Atlantic Drift, profoundly impacting temperatures throughout Scandinavia and Britain, while another turns southward, forming the Canary Current around African territories.
This remarkable body of water significantly moderates the climate experienced along the eastern seaboard of North America extending up to Canada’s maritime provinces, as well as the temperate zones covering much of Western Europe. Experts agree without hesitation: absent the warming effect imparted by the North Atlantic Drift – essentially an arm of the Gulf Stream itself – winters here could prove far more severe compared against observed norms. A component piece fitting neatly inside what scientists term "the North Atlantic Gyre," its role extends beyond mere heat distribution; indeed, it catalyzes formation of intense storms across multiple mediums—both atmospheric and aquatic realms alike!
Renewable energy enthusiasts see great promise embedded within harnessing currents' kinetic force, potentially unlocking clean electricity sources capable powering entire cities sustainably long-term. However, contemporary research suggests worrisome signs indicating possible deceleration linked directly back onto anthropogenic climate alterations... Presently measuring roughly hundred kilometers widthwise coupled eight hundred meters depth minimums upwards twelve hundred meter maxima, velocities peak nearest sea surfaces averaging approximately five point six miles hourly pace (~two point five meters/sec).

Radio is the technology of using radio waves to carry information , such as sound , by systematically modulating properties of electromagnetic energy waves transmitted through space , such as their amplitude , frequency , phase , or pulse width . When radio waves strike an electrical conductor , the oscillating fields induce an alternating current in the conductor . The information in the waves can be extracted and transformed back into its original form .   Radio systems need a transmitter to modulate ( change ) some property of the energy produced to impress a signal on it , for example using amplitude modulation or angle modulation ( which can be frequency modulation or phase modulation ) . Radio systems also need an antenna to convert electric currents into radio waves , and radio waves into an electric current . An antenna can be used for both transmitting and receiving . The electrical resonance of tuned circuits in radios allow individual stations to be selected . The electromagnetic wave is intercepted by a tuned receiving antenna . A radio receiver receives its input from an antenna and converts it into a form that is usable for the consumer , such as sound , pictures , digital data , measurement values , navigational positions , etc. . Radio frequencies occupy the range from a 3 kHz to 300 GHz , although commercially important uses of radio use only a small part of this spectrum .   A radio communication system sends signals by radio . The radio equipment involved in communication systems includes a transmitter and a receiver , each having an antenna and appropriate terminal equipment such as a microphone at the transmitter and a loudspeaker at the receiver in the case of a voice-communication system .

Datchet is a village and civil parish in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead in Berkshire , England . Located on the north bank of the River Thames , it was part of Buckinghamshire until boundary changes in 1974 transferred it to Berkshire .   The village developed because of its close proximity to Windsor and the ferry service which connected it to the main London road across the River Thames . The ferry was later replaced by a road bridge at the foot of High Street , rebuilt three times , a rail bridge approaching Windsor across the river , and two road bridges above and below the village .   The name `` Datchet '' is thought to be Celtic in origin , and the last part may be related to cet ( `` wood '' ) . In Domesday Book it is called `` Daceta '' .

Lamèque Island ( Île Lamèque ) is a Canadian island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence at the northeastern tip of Gloucester County , New Brunswick .   The island has an area of 150 km2 . It is separated from mainland North America on the south by the Shippagan Gut with the island forming Lameque Bay , Shippagan Harbour and Shippagan Bay west of this channel . The island is separated from Miscou Island on the north by the Miscou Channel , with both islands forming Miscou Harbour .   The Shippagan Gut is bridged between the town of Shippagan on the mainland to the local service district of Chiasson-Savoy on Lamèque Island by a 1000 m combination causeway-bridge with a lift bridge over a navigation channel for small craft .   The Miscou Channel is bridged between the community of Little Shippagan on Lamèque Island to the community of Miscou Harbour on Miscou Island by the 2000 metre Miscou Island Bridge .   Lamèque Island and Miscou Island separate Chaleur Bay from the Gulf of Saint Lawrence .

A deserted island or uninhabited island is an island that is not permanently populated by humans . Uninhabited islands are often used in movies or stories about shipwrecked people , and are also used as stereotypes for the idea of `` paradise '' . Some uninhabited islands are protected as nature reserves and some are privately owned . Devon Island in Canada is claimed to be the largest uninhabited island in the world .   Small coral atolls or islands usually have no source of fresh water , but at times a fresh water lens ( Ghyben -- Herzberg lens ) can be reached with a well .

The 1911 Atlantic hurricane season was relatively inactive , with only six known tropical cyclones forming in the Atlantic during the summer and fall . There were three suspected tropical depressions , including one that began the season in February and one that ended the season when it dissipated in December . Three storms intensified into hurricanes , two of which attained Category 2 status on the modern-day Saffir -- Simpson Hurricane Scale . Storm data is largely based on the Atlantic hurricane database , which underwent a thorough revision for the period between 1911 and 1914 in 2005 .   Most of the cyclones directly impacted land . A westward-moving hurricane killed 17 people and severely damaged Charleston , South Carolina , and the surrounding area in late August . A couple of weeks earlier , the Pensacola , Florida area had a storm in the Gulf of Mexico that produced winds of 80 mph over land . The fourth storm of the season struck the coast of Nicaragua , killing 10 and causing extensive damage .

The 1936 Atlantic hurricane season officially began on June 12 , 1936 , and lasted until December 6 , 1936 . These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic basin .   The 1936 season was fairly active , with 20 tropical cyclones including 3 tropical depressions . Seven storms became hurricanes , of which one became a major hurricane . In addition , the season was unusual in the fact that no storms moved across large portions of the Caribbean Sea . Seven storms , including three hurricanes , struck the United States . The season also set many records for the earliest date for a numbered storm , though all were surpassed by the extreme activity of the 2005 season .

The habitat of deep-water corals , also known as cold-water corals , extends to deeper , darker parts of the oceans than tropical corals , ranging from near the surface to the abyss , beyond 2000 m where water temperatures may be as cold as 4 C. Deep-water corals belong to the Phylum Cnidaria and are most often stony corals , but also include black and horny corals and soft corals including the Gorgonians ( sea fans ) . Like tropical corals , they provide habitat to other species , but deep-water corals do not require zooxanthellae to survive .   While there are nearly as many species of deep-water corals as shallow-water species , only a few deep-water species develop traditional reefs . Instead , they form aggregations called patches , banks , bioherms , massifs , thickets or groves . These aggregations are often referred to as `` reefs , '' but differ structurally and functionally . Deep sea reefs are sometimes referred to as `` mounds , '' which more accurately describes the large calcium carbonate skeleton that is left behind as a reef grows and corals below die off , rather than the living habitat and refuge that deep sea corals provide for fish and invertebrates . Mounds may or may not contain living deep sea reefs .   Submarine communications cables and fishing methods such as bottom trawling tend to break corals apart and destroy reefs . The deep-water habitat is designated as a United Kingdom Biodiversity Action Plan habitat .

In biology , the range or distribution of a species is the geographical area within which that species can be found . Within that range , dispersion is variation in local density .   The term is often qualified :   Sometimes a distinction is made between a species ' natural , endemic , or native range where it historically originated and lived , and the range where a species has more recently established itself . Many terms are used to describe the new range , such as non-native , naturalized , introduced , transplanted , invasive , or colonized range . Introduced typically means that a species has been transported by humans ( intentionally or accidentally ) across a major geographical barrier .  For species found in different regions at different times of year , terms such as summer range and winter range are often employed .  For species for which only part of their range is used for breeding activity , the terms breeding range and non-breeding range are used .  For mobile animals , the term natural range is often used , as opposed to areas where it occurs as a vagrant .  Geographic or temporal qualifiers are often added : for example , British range or pre-1950 range .   There are at least five types of distribution patterns :   Scattered/random ( Random placement )  Clustered/grouped ( Most are placed in one area )  Linear ( Their placements form a line )  Radial ( Placements form an ' x ' shape )  Regular/ordered ( They are not random at all , but follow a set placement . Much like a grid )

A lagoon is a shallow body of water separated from a larger body of water by barrier islands or reefs . Lagoons are commonly divided into coastal lagoons and atoll lagoons . They have also been identified as occurring on mixed-sand and gravel coastlines . There is an overlap between bodies of water classified as coastal lagoons and bodies of water classified as estuaries . Lagoons are common coastal features around many parts of the world .   Lagoons can also be man-made and used for wastewater treatment , as is the case for e.g. aerated lagoons and anaerobic lagoons .

The 1983 North Indian Ocean cyclone season was part of the annual cycle of tropical cyclone formation . The season has no official bounds but cyclones tend to form between April and December . These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northern Indian Ocean . There are two main seas in the North Indian Ocean -- the Bay of Bengal to the east of the Indian subcontinent and the Arabian Sea to the west of India . The official Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre in this basin is the India Meteorological Department ( IMD ) , while the Joint Typhoon Warning Center ( JTWC ) releases unofficial advisories . An average of five tropical cyclones form in the North Indian Ocean every season with peaks in May and November . Cyclones occurring between the meridians 45 ° E and 100 ° E are included in the season by the IMD .
