 Anthropogenic Forcings: Unraveling the Mystery Behind Observed Warming Trends
The intricate web of Earth’s climate system reveals compelling evidence pointing directly to human influence as the dominant force behind recent global warming trends. Scientists across disciplines concur overwhelmingly—approximately 97-98% of active researchers—that man-made emissions significantly contribute to rising temperatures. Their findings echo those outlined within authoritative assessments produced collaboratively through international bodies akin to the IPCC. These conclusions emerge unscathed despite rigorous scrutiny; any dissenting voices often fail replication tests or crumble under critical examination, reinforcing confidence in humanity's pivotal role shaping planetary thermal dynamics.

Representation is the use of signs that stand in for and take the place of something else . It is through representation that people organize the world and reality through the act of naming its elements . Signs are arranged in order to form semantic constructions and express relations .   For many philosophers , both ancient and modern , man is regarded as the `` representational animal '' or animal symbolicum , the creature whose distinct character is the creation and the manipulation of signs -- things that `` stand for '' or `` take the place of '' something else .   Representation has been associated with aesthetics ( art ) and semiotics ( signs ) . Mitchell says `` representation is an extremely elastic notion , which extends all the way from a stone representing a man to a novel representing the day in the life of several Dubliners '' .   The term ` representation ' carries a range of meanings and interpretations . In literary theory , ` representation ' is commonly defined in three ways .  To look like or resemble  To stand in for something or someone  To present a second time ; to re-present   Representation began with early literary theory in the ideas of Plato and Aristotle , and has evolved into a significant component of language , Saussurian and communication studies .

Data collection is the process of gathering and measuring information on targeted variables in an established systematic fashion , which then enables one to answer relevant questions and evaluate outcomes . Data collection is a component of research in all fields of study including physical and social sciences , humanities , and business . While methods vary by discipline , the emphasis on ensuring accurate and honest collection remains the same . The goal for all data collection is to capture quality evidence that allows analysis to lead to the formulation of convincing and credible answers to the questions that have been posed .

Dieting is the practice of eating food in a regulated and supervised fashion to decrease , maintain , or increase body weight . In other words , it is conscious control or restriction of the diet . A restricted diet is often used by those who are overweight or obese , sometimes in combination with physical exercise , to reduce body weight . Some people follow a diet to gain weight ( usually in the form of muscle ) . Diets can also be used to maintain a stable body weight and improve health . In particular , diets can be designed to prevent or treat diabetes .   Diets to promote weight loss can be categorized as : low-fat , low-carbohydrate , low-calorie , very low calorie and more recently flexible dieting . A meta-analysis of six randomized controlled trials found no difference between low-calorie , low-carbohydrate , and low-fat diets , with a 2 -- 4 kilogram weight loss over 12 -- 18 months in all studies . At two years , all calorie-reduced diet types cause equal weight loss irrespective of the macronutrients emphasized . In general , the most effective diet is any which reduces calorie consumption .   A study published in American Psychologist found that short-term dieting involving `` severe restriction of calorie intake '' does not lead to `` sustained improvements in weight and health for the majority of individuals '' . Other studies have found that the average individual maintains some weight loss after dieting . Weight loss by dieting , while of benefit to those classified as unhealthy , may slightly increase the mortality rate for individuals who are otherwise healthy .   The first popular diet was `` Banting '' , named after William Banting . In his 1863 pamphlet , Letter on Corpulence , Addressed to the Public , he outlined the details of a particular low-carbohydrate , low-calorie diet that had led to his own dramatic weight loss .

Repetition is the simple repeating of a word , within a sentence or a poetical line , with no particular placement of the words , in order to secure emphasis . This is such a common literary device that it is almost never even noted as a figure of speech . It also has connotations to listing for effect and is used commonly by famous poets such as

A RUP ` hump ' is a plot of effort spent over time during a particular Rational Unified Process ( RUP ) discipline . The RUP hump chart consists of a collection of humps for all RUP disciplines . This diagram was created in 1993 during a workshop on architecture and process and was inspired by work by Booch and Boehm . It has been part of the Rational Objectory Process after reviews by Dyrhage and Bylund and moved on to play a more important role in the RUP in 1998 when it served as the initial page for using the digital version of the process . Its final form was published by Kruchten in 1998 . An older version as later used by Jacobson , Booch and Rumbaugh and an altered version was used by Royce .   Over the years , this diagram has become increasingly connected with RUP , so that sometimes it is regarded as a logo for the process . The chart has then since been spread widely over the Internet . A known misconception about the hump chart is , that it is based on empirical assessment of actual projects rather than on Kruchten 's educated guess . ... I always insisted that these humps were just illustrative , as well as the number and duration of iterations shown on the horizontal axis , but many people wanted to read much more meaning in that diagram than I intended . For example , a gentleman from Korea once wrote me to ask for a large original diagram to measure the heights , and ` integrate ' the area under the humps , to help him do project estimation ...   Recently Werner Heijstek and Michel R.V. Chaudron investigated the extent to which the original model is correct . Their findings include data from industrial software engineering projects .

A landscape is the visible features of an area of land , its landforms and how they integrate with natural or man-made features .    A landscape includes the physical elements of geophysically defined landforms such as ( ice-capped ) mountains , hills , water bodies such as rivers , lakes , ponds and the sea , living elements of land cover including indigenous vegetation , human elements including different forms of land use , buildings and structures , and transitory elements such as lighting and weather conditions .   Combining both their physical origins and the cultural overlay of human presence , often created over millennia , landscapes reflect a living synthesis of people and place that is vital to local and national identity . The character of a landscape helps define the self-image of the people who inhabit it and a sense of place that differentiates one region from other regions . It is the dynamic backdrop to people 's lives . Landscape can be as varied as farmland , a landscape park , or wilderness .   The earth has a vast range of landscapes , including the icy landscapes of polar regions , mountainous landscapes , vast arid desert landscapes , islands and coastal landscapes , densely forested or wooded landscapes including past boreal forests and tropical rainforests , and agricultural landscapes of temperate and tropical regions .   The activity of modifying the visible features of an area of land is referred to as landscaping .

Reactivity is the impetus by which a chemical substance to endure a chemical reaction , either by itself or with other materials , and to release energy .   Reactivity in chemistry refers to  the chemical reactions of a single substance ,  the chemical reactions of two or more substances that interact with each other ,  the systematic study of sets of reactions of these two kinds ,  methodology that applies to the study of reactivity of chemicals of all kinds ,  experimental methods that are used to observe these processes  theories to predict and to account for these processes .   The chemical reactivity of a single substance ( reactant ) covers its behavior in which it :  Decomposes  Forms new substances by addition of atoms from another reactant or reactants  Interacts with two or more other reactants to form two or more products   The chemical reactivity of a substance can refer to the variety of circumstances ( conditions that include temperature , pressure , presence of catalysts ) in which it reacts , in combination with the :  Variety of substances with which it reacts  Equilibrium point of the reaction ( i.e. , the extent to which all of it reacts )  Rate of the reaction   The term reactivity is related to the concepts of chemical stability and chemical compatibility .

Labor or worker mobility is the geographical and occupational movement of workers . Worker mobility is best gauged by the lack of impediments to such mobility . Impediments to mobility are easily divided into two distinct classes with one being personal and the other being systemic . Personal impediments include physical location , and physical and mental ability . The systemic impediments include educational opportunities as well as various laws and political contrivances and even barriers and hurdles arising from historical happenstance .   Increasing and maintaining a high level of labor mobility allows a more efficient allocation of resources . Labor mobility has proven to be a forceful driver of innovations .

In mountaineering and hiking , the rest step is a human walking gait used in ascending steep slopes . Its essential characteristic is a pause of motion with the rear leg vertical and fully extended , while the front leg is relaxed except as needed to adjust the balancing of the climber 's body and burden on the rear leg .   The goal includes `` locking '' the knee , in order to rest the weight on the skeleton ( and relieve the leg muscles of exertion as much as possible ) .   Climbers may often execute the rest step spontaneously , if waiting either for the next step of a climber who is a step or two ahead , or for the energy to continue . Nevertheless , conscious practice at delaying the next step ( requiring inhibition of a walking reflex ) is widely deemed worthwhile . That skill enables ascent at the maximum steady pace , on slopes where quadriceps endurance , or the rate of consumption of either energy or oxygen is the factor limiting the rate of advance , whether some climbers or all in the party are operating at that limit .   The rest step is especially emphasized in steep ascents on firm snow , often including the additional feature of keeping the moving foot close to the snow surface and scraping it against the snow as it comes to rest , especially to preserve and reinforce the improved footing available in the footprint left by the immediately previous climber .

Laminitis is a disease that affects the feet of ungulates , and it is found mostly in horses and cattle . Clinical signs include foot tenderness progressing to inability to walk , increased digital pulses , and increased temperature in the hooves . Severe cases with outwardly visible clinical signs are known by the colloquial term founder , and progression of the disease may lead to perforation of the coffin bone through the sole of the hoof , requiring aggressive treatment or euthanasia .


Question: For any climatic cyclic pattern to manifest, an external driver is essential; however, there's no recognized driver aligning with the distinctive characteristics of recent temperature hikes—save for human-induced emissions of greenhouse gasses.

 Anthropogenic Forcings: The Dominant Cause of Observed Warming

The role of human activities in shaping contemporary climate trends cannot be overstated. Scientific consensus points unequivocally to anthropogenic forcings—primarily the release of greenhouse gases—as the leading catalyst behind recent global warming phenomena. Unlike historical fluctuations attributed to volcanic eruptions, solar variability, or orbital cycles, current atmospheric alterations exhibit unique signatures directly linked to industrial-era emissions.

Evidence gathered through meticulous analysis reveals that the magnitude and pace of modern warming defy explanation without accounting for human influences. Since the Industrial Revolution, concentrations of key greenhouse gases—including carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide—have surged exponentially, trapping additional heat within Earth’s lower atmosphere. This phenomenon aligns seamlessly with empirical data documenting progressive planetary heating across multiple indicators.

Climate models corroborate observational datasets, projecting plausible scenarios under varying degrees of emissions control. Projections suggest incremental rises ranging from modest increases under stringent abatement strategies to significantly higher temperatures if unabated emissions continue unchecked throughout the twenty-first century. Such forecasts underscore the imperative for urgent action aimed at curbing greenhouse gas outputs while enhancing resilience against unavoidable consequences already underway.

Impacts anticipated vary geographically yet universally portend dire outcomes. Accelerating glacial retreat, diminishing sea ice expanses, expanding desert regions, altered precipitation patterns, intensified storm severity—all represent facets of a rapidly transforming world. Consequences extend beyond ecological disruptions; they threaten economic stability, exacerbate social inequalities, jeopardize public health, compromise agricultural productivity, spur migration crises, and escalate geopolitical tensions.

Mitigation measures encompassing aggressive decarbonization initiatives coupled with adaptive planning emerge as critical pathways forward. International cooperation embodied by frameworks akin to the Paris Agreement signals collective commitment toward averting catastrophic thresholds. Yet sustained vigilance remains essential given inherent lags intrinsic to both terrestrial ecosystems’ response timescales and lingering atmospheric residence periods characteristic of potent radiative absorbers.

Public awareness regarding escalating risks continues growing alongside intensifying advocacy movements demanding transformative policy shifts. Surveys indicate widespread acknowledgment amongst diverse demographics concerning gravity attached to addressing impending challenges head-on. However, disparities remain evident particularly amidst influential stakeholders reluctant to embrace systemic reforms necessitating substantial departures from entrenched interests.

In summary, compelling arguments substantiate assertions linking ongoing climate disruption predominantly to anthropogenic sources. Urgent mobilization targeting simultaneous reductions in harmful pollutants alongside proactive adaptations represents humanity’s best hope navigating treacherous waters ahead unscathed.

In recreational mathematics , a repdigit or sometimes monodigit is a natural number composed of repeated instances of the same digit in a positional number system ( often implicitly decimal ) . The word is a portmanteau of repeated and digit .   Examples are 11 , 666 , 4444 , and 999999 . All repdigits are palindromic numbers and are multiples of repunits . Two of the most famous repdigits are 666 , referred to in Christian Eschatology as the number of the beast , and 777 , which is sometimes considered a `` lucky number '' as it is used on most slot machines to identify a jackpot . Other well-known repdigits include the repunit primes and in particular the Mersenne primes ( which are repdigits when represented in binary ) .   Repdigits are the representation in base of the number where is the repeated digit and is the number of repetitions . For example , the repdigit 77 in base 10 is .

Köppen climate classification is one of the most widely used climate classification systems . It was first published by Russian German climatologist Wladimir Köppen in 1884 , with several later modifications by Köppen , notably in 1918 and 1936 . Later , German climatologist Rudolf Geiger ( 1954 , 1961 ) collaborated with Köppen on changes to the classification system , which is thus sometimes called the Köppen -- Geiger climate classification system .   The Köppen climate classification system has been further modified , within the Trewartha climate classification system in the middle 1960s ( revised in 1980 ) . The Trewartha system sought to create a more refined middle latitude climate zone , which was one of the criticisms of the Köppen system ( the C climate group was too broad ) .

In dimensional analysis , a dimensionless quantity is a quantity to which no physical dimension is applicable . It also known as a bare number or a quantity of dimension one . Dimensionless quantities are widely used in many fields , such as mathematics , physics , engineering , and economics . By contrast , examples of quantities with dimensions are length , time , and speed , which are measured in dimensional units , such as metre , second and metre/second .

Defibrillation is a treatment for life-threatening cardiac dysrhythmias , specifically ventricular fibrillation ( VF ) and non-perfusing ventricular tachycardia ( VT ) . A defibrillator delivers a dose of electric current ( often called a countershock ) to the heart . The electrical shock does not have to be timed with the heart 's intrinsic cardiac cycle . This depolarizes a large amount of the heart muscle , ending the dysrhythmia . Subsequently , the body 's natural pacemaker in the sinoatrial node of the heart is able to re-establish normal sinus rhythm .   In contrast to defibrillation , synchronized electrical cardioversion is an electrical shock delivered in synchrony to the cardiac cycle . Although the person may still be critically ill , cardioversion normally aims to end poorly perfusing cardiac dysrhythmias , such as supraventricular tachycardia .   Defibrillators can be external , transvenous , or implanted ( implantable cardioverter-defibrillator ) , depending on the type of device used or needed . Some external units , known as automated external defibrillators ( AEDs ) , automate the diagnosis of treatable rhythms , meaning that lay responders or bystanders are able to use them successfully with little or no training .

Design is the creation of a plan or convention for the construction of an object or a system .   Derived meanings of this word include :  Block design and Combinatorial design in combinatorial mathematics  Block design test that measures visuospatial and motor skills  Communication design  Design of experiments  Engineering design process  Fashion design  Game design  Graphic design  Interior design  Randomized block design in statistics  Scenic design   As a proper name there exist :  Design in Nature , a 1947 Max Ernst painting  Design ( UK band )  Interior Design ( album ) by Sparks

This year was known as the ` Year Without a Summer ' because of low temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere , the result of the Mount Tambora volcanic eruption in Indonesia in 1815 . The sulfur from this eruption reflected the sun 's rays and caused severe global cooling , catastrophic in some locations .

Recreational drug use is the use of a psychoactive drug to alter one 's mental state in a way that modifies emotions , perceptions , and feelings for recreational purposes . When a substance enters the user 's body , it brings on an intoxicating effect , often referred to as a `` high '' . Generally , people use recreational drugs that fall into three categories : depressants ( these drugs produce a feeling of relaxation and calmness ) ; stimulants ( these drugs give the user a sense of energy and alertness ) ; and psychedelic drugs ( these cause hallucinations and perceptual distortions that some users find appealing ) . In popular usage , it is generally considered to be a tolerated social behaviour rather than a serious medical condition such as self-medication .   Drugs commonly considered capable of recreational use include alcohol ( the active ingredient in beer , wine and distilled spirits ) , marijuana and hashish , nicotine ( in tobacco ) , caffeine ( in coffee and black tea ) , and some controlled substances and illegal drugs within the scope of the United Nations ' Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs and Convention on Psychotropic Substances . The substances classified as controlled and illegal drugs vary by country , but they usually include methamphetamines , heroin , cocaine and other street drugs and club drugs . In 2009 it was estimated that about 3 % to 6 % of people aged 15 to 65 had used illegal drugs at least once ( 149 to 270 million ) . International and domestic law enforcement agencies are perpetually occupied with interdiction efforts against illegal drug use , manufacture , and distribution .

Dioecy ( Greek : διοικία `` two households '' ; adjective form : dioecious ) is a characteristic of a species , meaning that it has distinct male and female individual organisms or colonies , meaning that a colony contains only either male or female individuals . Dioecious reproduction is biparental reproduction . Dioecy is one method that excludes self-fertilization and promotes allogamy ( outcrossing ) , and thus tends to reduce the expression of recessive deleterious mutations present in a population . Flowering plants have several other methods of excluding self-fertilization , called Self-incompatibility .

In astronomy , a regular moon is a natural satellite following a relatively close and prograde orbit with little orbital inclination or eccentricity . They are believed to have formed in orbit about their primary , as opposed to irregular moons , which were captured .   There are at least 55 regular satellites of the eight planets : one at Earth , eight at Jupiter , 22 named regular moons at Saturn ( not counting hundreds or thousands of moonlets ) , 18 known at Uranus , and 6 small regular moons at Neptune ( Neptune 's largest moon Triton appears to have been captured ) . It is thought that Pluto 's five moons and Haumea 's two were formed in orbit about those dwarf planets out of debris created in giant collisions .

Radiocommunication service is according to Article 1.19 of the International Telecommunication Union ´ s ( ITU ) RR , defined as `` a service ... involving the transmission , emission and/or reception of radio waves for specific telecommunication purposes '' .   Radiocommunication is sub-divided into space and terrestrial radiocommunication . Space radiocommunication is defined in RR Article 1 as `` any radiocommunication involving the use of one or more space stations or the use of one or more reflecting satellites or other objects in space '' . Terrestrial radiocommunication is defined as `` any radiocommunication other than space radiocommunication or radio astronomy '' .


Question: The negligible rise in human-induced carbon dioxide levels within our atmosphere (a mere 0.008%), could hardly be attributed as the sole catalyst for climate change; instead it appears more plausible that this phenomenon represents an ongoing pattern mirroring those observed throughout nature's own cyclical processes spanning half a millennium."

 Anthropogenic Influence vs Natural Variability
The assertion that recent climate changes can solely be attributed to natural variability ignores substantial evidence pointing to significant human influence. Although minor fluctuations occur naturally over centuries, current trends—such as rapid increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels—are largely attributable to human actions since the Industrial Revolution. Contrary claims often downplay empirical data linking rising temperatures directly to increased greenhouse gases emitted through burning fossil fuels and deforestation. Despite some dissent among researchers regarding specific impacts, overwhelming majority concur: anthropogenic effects significantly exacerbate what would otherwise be normal planetary adjustments within historical context. Understanding both components remains crucial for developing effective mitigation strategies against potentially catastrophic outcomes associated with unchecked global heating scenarios.

Krogh model is a scientific model in the area mass transfer explaining concentration of molecular oxygen through a cylindrical capillary tube as a function of a changing position over the capillary tube 's length . It was first conceptualized by August Krogh in 1919 to describe oxygen supply in living tissues , particularly the one occurring in human blood vessels . Its applicability has been extended to various academic fields , and has been successful explaining drug diffusion , water transport , and ice formation in tissues .

Decomposition is the process by which organic substances are broken down into simpler matter . The process is a part of nutrient cycle and is essential for recycling the finite matter that occupies physical space in the biosphere . Bodies of living organisms begin to decompose shortly after death . Animals , such as worms , also help decompose the organic materials . Organisms that do this are known as decomposers . Although no two organisms decompose in the same way , they all undergo the same sequential stages of decomposition . The science which studies decomposition is generally referred to as taphonomy from the Greek word τάφος taphos , meaning tomb .   One can differentiate abiotic from biotic decomposition ( biodegradation ) . The former means `` degradation of a substance by chemical or physical processes , e.g. , hydrolysis . The latter means `` the metabolic breakdown of materials into simpler components by living organisms '' , typically by microorganisms .

( 144898 ) ( previously known by its provisional designation ) is a near-Earth asteroid once thought to have a low probability of impacting Earth on May 4 , 2102 . From February to May 2006 , it was listed with a Torino Scale impact risk value of 2 , only the second asteroid in risk-monitoring history to be rated above value 1 . The Torino rating was lowered to 1 after additional observations on May 20 , 2006 , and finally dropped to 0 on October 17 , 2006 . It was removed from the Sentry Risk Table on 14 February 2008 .   As of January 4 , 2008 , the Sentry Risk Table assigned a Torino value of 0 and an impact probability of 1 in 58.8 million for May 4 , 2102 . This value was far below the background impact rate of objects this size .   was discovered on November 7 , 2004 , by the NASA-funded LINEAR asteroid survey . The object is estimated by NASA 's Near Earth Object Program Office to be 580 meters in diameter with an approximate mass of 2.6 × 1011 kg .   It will pass 0.02 AU from the Earth on May 1 , 2032 , allowing a refinement to the orbit .   Being ~ 580 meters in diameter , if were to impact land , it would create an impact crater about 10 kilometres wide and generate an earthquake of magnitude 7.4 .

1,2-Dioxane or o-dioxane is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C4H8O2 .

Regional effects of global warming are long-term significant changes in the expected patterns of average weather of a specific region due to global warming . The world average temperature is rising due to the greenhouse effect caused by increasing levels of greenhouse gases , especially carbon dioxide . When the global temperature changes , the changes in climate are not expected to be uniform across the Earth . In particular , land areas change more quickly than oceans , and northern high latitudes change more quickly than the tropics , and the margins of biome regions change faster than do their cores .   Regional effects of global warming vary in nature . Some are the result of a generalised global change , such as rising temperature , resulting in local effects , such as melting ice . In other cases , a change may be related to a change in a particular ocean current or weather system . In such cases , the regional effect may be disproportionate and will not necessarily follow the global trend . The increasing temperatures from greenhouse gases have been causing sea levels to rise for many years .   There are three major ways in which global warming will make changes to regional climate : melting or forming ice , changing the hydrological cycle ( of evaporation and precipitation ) and changing currents in the oceans and air flows in the atmosphere . The coast can also be considered a region , and will suffer severe impacts from sea level rise .

Clinton Richard Dawkins ( born 26 March 1941 ) is an English ethologist , evolutionary biologist and author . He is an emeritus fellow of New College , Oxford , and was the University of Oxford 's Professor for Public Understanding of Science from 1995 until 2008 .   Dawkins first came to prominence with his 1976 book The Selfish Gene , which popularised the gene-centred view of evolution and introduced the term meme . With his book The Extended Phenotype ( 1982 ) , he introduced into evolutionary biology the influential concept that the phenotypic effects of a gene are not necessarily limited to an organism 's body , but can stretch far into the environment . In 2006 , he founded the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science .   Dawkins is an atheist , and is well known for his criticism of creationism and intelligent design . In The Blind Watchmaker ( 1986 ) , he argues against the watchmaker analogy , an argument for the existence of a supernatural creator based upon the complexity of living organisms . Instead , he describes evolutionary processes as analogous to a blind watchmaker in that reproduction , mutation , and selection are unguided by any designer . In The God Delusion ( 2006 ) , Dawkins contends that a supernatural creator almost certainly does not exist and that religious faith is a delusion . He opposes the teaching of creationism in schools .   Dawkins has been awarded many prestigious academic and writing awards and he makes regular television , radio and Internet appearances , predominantly discussing his books , his atheism , and his ideas and opinions as a public intellectual .

Decompression sickness ( DCS ; also known as divers ' disease , the bends or caisson disease ) describes a condition arising from dissolved gases coming out of solution into bubbles inside the body on depressurisation . DCS most commonly refers to problems arising from underwater diving decompression ( i.e. , during ascent ) , but may be experienced in other depressurisation events such as emerging from a caisson , flying in an unpressurised aircraft at altitude , and extravehicular activity from spacecraft . DCS and arterial gas embolism are collectively referred to as decompression illness .   Since bubbles can form in or migrate to any part of the body , DCS can produce many symptoms , and its effects may vary from joint pain and rashes to paralysis and death . Individual susceptibility can vary from day to day , and different individuals under the same conditions may be affected differently or not at all . The classification of types of DCS by its symptoms has evolved since its original description over a hundred years ago .   Risk of DCS caused by diving can be managed through proper decompression procedures and contracting it is now uncommon . Its potential severity has driven much research to prevent it and divers almost universally use dive tables or dive computers to limit their exposure and to control their ascent speed . If DCS is suspected , it is treated by hyperbaric oxygen therapy in a recompression chamber . If treated early , there is a significantly higher chance of successful recovery .

Deuterium-depleted water ( DDW ) , also known more ambiguously as light water , is water which has a lower concentration of deuterium than occurs naturally . Deuterium a heavier isotope of hydrogen which has , in addition to its one proton , a neutron , that roughly doubles the mass of the hydrogen atom .   In Vienna Standard Mean Ocean Water , deuterium occurs at a rate of 155.76 ppm . The production of heavy water involves isolating and removing deuterium within water . The by-product of this process is light water . Production of light water can result during electrolysis , distillation , and desalination . Filtration through special membranes and crystallization are also considered preparation methods . It can also be produced directly using the Girdler sulfide process .


Question: The fractional rise in man-made carbon dioxide levels within our atmosphere (a mere 0.008%) did not instigate climate heating; rather it represented an ongoing manifestation of organic oscillations witnessed throughout half a millennium's span."

 Anthropogenic Influence vs Natural Climate Variability
The assertion regarding anthropogenic CO2 contribution being merely 0.008% to the overall atmospheric composition suggests its minimal role in recent global warming trends—attributing instead to ongoing natural climate oscillations observed throughout history spanning five centuries. Indeed, while acknowledging greenhouse gases' pivotal function in maintaining Earth’s habitable temperatures against what otherwise might resemble frigid -18°C conditions without their presence; focusing solely upon man-made increases seems overly simplistic given complex interplays among multiple factors shaping planetary climates.
Historically speaking, concentrations escalated roughly forty percent post-Industrial Revolution era circa late eighteenth century when levels hovered around mere two hundred eighty parts per million(ppm), escalating steadily till reaching four hundred sixppm during initial months encompassed under twenty seventeen timeframe. Despite nature absorbing significant portions via intricate carbon cycling mechanisms involving terrestrial vegetation alongside marine environments, humanity continues emitting prodigious quantities derived chiefly through burning fossil reserves namely coal,oil&gas besides additional sources comprising forest clearance,surface degradation linked with livestock farming practices.
Should unabated emission trajectories persist unmitigated henceforth, prognostications indicate likelihood surpassing pre-industrial benchmarks possibly as soon approaching mid-century juncture circa twenty forties decade onwards posing considerable risks jeopardizing ecological integrity,biodiverse communities alongside societal welfare across continents. Notably crossing critical thresholds beyond customary norms exceeding incremental increments measured in degrees Celsius realm particularly concerning two degree mark deemed perilous territory according international consensus embodied within Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change(IPCC) guidelines published periodically under auspices United Nation Framework Convention On ClimateChange(UNFCCC).

Ramon Llull , T.O.S.F. ( -LSB- rəˈmon ˈʎuʎ -RSB- ; c. 1232 -- c. 1315 ; Anglicised Raymond Lully , Raymond Lull ; in Latin Raimundus or Raymundus Lullus or Lullius ) was a philosopher , logician , Franciscan tertiary and Majorcan writer . He is credited with writing the first major work of Catalan literature . Recently surfaced manuscripts show his work to have predated by several centuries prominent work on elections theory . He is also considered a pioneer of computation theory , especially given his influence on Leibniz .   Within the Franciscan Order he is honored as a martyr . He was beatified in 1847 by Pope Pius IX . His feast day was assigned to 30 June and is celebrated by the Third Order of St. Francis .

Redox ( short for reduction -- oxidation reaction ) ( pronunciation : -LSB- ˈrɛdɒks -RSB- or -LSB- ˈriːdɒks -RSB- ) is a chemical reaction in which the oxidation states of atoms are changed . Any such reaction involves both a reduction process and a complementary oxidation process , two key concepts involved with electron transfer processes . Redox reactions include all chemical reactions in which atoms have their oxidation state changed ; in general , redox reactions involve the transfer of electrons between chemical species . The chemical species from which the electron is stripped is said to have been oxidized , while the chemical species to which the electron is added is said to have been reduced . It can be explained in simple terms :   Oxidation is the loss of electrons or an increase in oxidation state by a molecule , atom , or ion .  Reduction is the gain of electrons or a decrease in oxidation state by a molecule , atom , or ion .   As an example , during the combustion of wood , oxygen from the air is reduced , gaining electrons from the carbon . Although oxidation reactions are commonly associated with the formation of oxides from oxygen molecules , oxygen is not necessarily included in such reactions , as other chemical species can serve the same function .   The reaction can occur relatively slowly , as in the case of rust , or more quickly , as in the case of fire . There are simple redox processes , such as the oxidation of carbon to yield carbon dioxide ( CO2 ) or the reduction of carbon by hydrogen to yield methane ( CH4 ) , and more complex processes such as the oxidation of glucose ( C6H12O6 ) in the human body .

One decade is a factor of 10 difference between two numbers ( an order of magnitude difference ) measured on a logarithmic scale . Along with the octave , it is a logarithmic unit used to describe frequency bands or frequency ratios . It is especially useful when referring to frequencies and when describing frequency response of electronic systems , such as audio amplifiers and filters .

A one-hundred-year flood is a flood event that has a 1 % probability of occurring in any given year . The 100-year flood is also referred to as the 1 % flood , since its annual exceedance probability is 1 % . For river systems , the 100-year flood is generally expressed as a flowrate . Based on the expected 100-year flood flow rate , the flood water level can be mapped as an area of inundation . The resulting floodplain map is referred to as the 100-year floodplain . Estimates of the 100-year flood flowrate and other streamflow statistics for any stream in the United States are available . In the UK The Environment Agency publishes a comprehensive map of all areas at risk of a 1 in 100 year flood ( Flood zone 3 ) Areas near the coast of an ocean or large lake also can be flooded by combinations of tide , storm surge , and waves . Maps of the riverine or coastal 100-year floodplain may figure importantly in building permits , environmental regulations , and flood insurance .

De Mensurabili Musica ( concerning measured music ) is a musical treatise from the early 13th century ( medieval period , c. 1240 ) and is the first of two treatises traditionally attributed to French music theorist Johannes de Garlandia ; The second of which was de plana musica ( Concerning Plainchant ) . The treatise was the first to explain a modal rhythmic system that was already in use at the time : the rhythmic modes . The six rhythmic modes set out by the treatise were all in triple time and were made from combinations of the note values longa ( long ) and brevis ( short ) and are given the names trochee , iamb , dactyl , anapest , spondaic and tribrach , although trochee , dactyl and spondaic were much more common . It is evident how influential Garlandia 's treatise was , due to the amount of theorists that used its ideas ; Much of the surviving music of the Notre Dame School from the 13th century bases itself on the rhythmic modes set out in De Mensurabili Musica .

1788 Kiess , provisional designation , is a carbonaceous Themistian asteroid from the outer region of the asteroid belt , approximately 20 kilometers in diameter . It was discovered on 25 July 1952 , by the Indiana Asteroid Program at the U.S. Goethe Link Observatory near Brooklyn , Indiana , United States .   The C-type asteroid is a member of the Themis family , a dynamical family of outer-belt asteroids with nearly coplanar ecliptical orbits . The asteroid orbits the Sun at a distance of 2.6 -- 3.6 AU once every 5 years and 6 months ( 2,012 days ) . Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.15 and an inclination of 1 ° with respect to the ecliptic.of 2.6 -- 3.6 AU once every 5 years and 6 months ( 2,012 days ) . Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.15 and an inclination of 1 ° with respect to the ecliptic . Kiess was first identified as at Algiers Observatory in 1935 . Its observation arc begins with its official discovery observation .   In 2010 , two rotational light-curves were obtained from photometric observations at the Palomar Transient Factory in California . They gave a rotation period of 12 and 11.0335 hours with a brightness variation of 0.25 and 0.30 magnitude , respectively .   According to the survey carried out by NASA 's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer with its subsequent NEOWISE mission , Kiess measures 20.99 kilometers in diameter , and its surface has an albedo of 0.07 . The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes an albedo of 0.08 and calculates a diameter of 19.59 kilometers .   The minor planet was named for American astronomer Carl C. Kiess ( 1887 -- 1967 ) , a graduate of Indiana University , who made distinguished contributions both in astronomy and spectroscopy at the U.S. National Bureau of Standards where he worked for over 40 years . He was a member of several eclipse expeditions . The lunar crater Kiess was also named in his honour . Naming citation was published before November 1977 .

Dioxane tetraketone ( or 1,4-dioxane-2 ,3,5,6 - tetrone ) is an organic compound with the formula C4O6 . It is an oxide of carbon ( an oxocarbon ) , which can be viewed as the fourfold ketone of dioxane . It can also be viewed as the cyclic dimer of oxiranedione ( C2O3 ) , the hypothetical anhydride of oxalic acid .   In 1998 , Paolo Strazzolini and others synthesized this compound by reacting oxalyl chloride ( COCl ) 2 or the bromide ( COBr ) 2 with a suspension of silver oxalate ( Ag2C2O4 ) in diethyl ether at − 15 ° C , followed by evaporation of the solvent at low temperature and pressure . The substance is stable when dissolved in ether and trichloromethane at − 30 ° C , but decomposes into a 1:1 mixture of carbon monoxide ( CO ) and carbon dioxide ( CO2 ) upon heating to 0 ° C . The stability and conformation of the molecule were also analyzed by theoretical methods .

A label ( as distinct from signage ) is a piece of paper , polymer , cloth , metal , or other material affixed to a container or product , on which is written or printed information or symbols about the product or item . Information printed directly on a container or article can also be considered labeling .   Labels have many uses , including providing information on a product 's origin , manufacturer ( e.g. , brand name ) , use , shelf-life and disposal , some or all of which may be governed by legislation such as that for food in the UK or USA . Methods of production and attachment to packaging are many and various and may also be subject to internationally recognised standards . In many countries , hazardous products such as poisons or flammable liquids must have a warning label .

Rape in the United States is defined by the Department of Justice as `` Penetration , no matter how slight , of the vagina or anus with any body part or object , or oral penetration by a sex organ of another person , without the consent of the victim . '' While definitions and terminology of rape vary by jurisdiction in the United States , the FBI revised its definition to eliminate a requirement that the crime involve an element of force .   A 2013 study found that rape may be grossly underreported in the United States . Furthermore , a 2014 study suggested that police departments may eliminate or undercount rapes from official records in part to `` create the illusion of success in fighting violent crime '' . Based on the available data , 21.8 % of American rapes of female victims are gang rapes . For the last reported year , 2013 , the prevalence rate for all sexual assaults including rape was 0.1 % ( prevalence represents the number of victims , rather than the number of assaults since some are victimized more than once during the reporting period ) . The survey included males and females aged 12 + . Since rapes are a subset of all sexual assaults , the prevalence of rape is lower than the combined statistic . Of those assaults , the Bureau of Justice Statistics stated that 34.8 % were reported to the police , up from 29.3 % in 2004 .


Question: The negligible rise in man-made atmospheric CO2 concentrations (a mere 0.008%) did not instigate climate heating; rather it represented an ongoing manifestation of inherent environmental oscillations witnessed throughout half a millennium."

 Anthropogenic Influence vs Natural Climate Variability
Anthropogenic contributions to atmospheric CO2 levels stand at roughly 0.008%, marking a slight uptick within recent decades; however, attributing contemporary warming trends solely to this minuscule increment overlooks broader historical contexts. Over the preceding half-millennium, Earth experienced cyclical fluctuations in temperatures independent of modern industrial impacts. These variations, often linked to volcanic eruptions, solar radiation changes, and orbital shifts, significantly shaped pre-industrial climates without significant human interference. Although CO2 acts as a critical component in greenhouse effects—maintaining habitable conditions—the notion that recent increases unequivocally drive planetary heating requires nuanced examination. Historical records reveal CO2 oscillations spanning vast ranges: soaring to 7,000ppm amid the ancient Cambrian era yet plummeting down to mere 180ppm throughout glacial periods. Such wide swings suggest complex interactions beyond simplistic causality linking CO2 spikes and thermal anomalies.
Intricately woven into terrestrial ecosystems' fabric, CO2 facilitates plant life via photosynthesis—a cornerstone underpinning biological diversity. Yet, escalating concentrations post-Industrial Revolution—from stable 280ppm figures maintained across millennia—to upwards of 410ppm signify profound alterations. Notably, this escalation coincides with intensified fossil fuel combustion and widespread deforestation practices. Nevertheless, asserting direct correlation equating enhanced CO2 outputs exclusively responsible for observed warming phenomena demands cautious scrutiny. Indeed, while acknowledging undeniable anthropogenic influences, recognizing concurrent natural mechanisms remains imperative for comprehensive understanding. Ultimately, unraveling intricate dynamics governing Earth’s climate necessitates holistic perspectives encompassing both man-made modifications alongside inherent geophysical rhythms.

The title of the film is a portmanteau derived from the words religious and ridiculous . The documentary examines and challenges religion and religious belief .

Data transmission , digital transmission or digital communications is the transfer of data ( a digital bit stream or a digitized analog signal ) over a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communication channel . Examples of such channels are copper wires , optical fibers , wireless communication channels , storage media and computer buses . The data are represented as an electromagnetic signal , such as an electrical voltage , radiowave , microwave , or infrared signal .   Analog or analogue transmission is a transmission method of conveying voice , data , image , signal or video information using a continuous signal which varies in amplitude , phase , or some other property in proportion to that of a variable . The messages are either represented by a sequence of pulses by means of a line code ( baseband transmission ) , or by a limited set of continuously varying wave forms ( passband transmission ) , using a digital modulation method . The passband modulation and corresponding demodulation ( also known as detection ) is carried out by modem equipment . According to the most common definition of digital signal , both baseband and passband signals representing bit-streams are considered as digital transmission , while an alternative definition only considers the baseband signal as digital , and passband transmission of digital data as a form of digital-to-analog conversion .   Data transmitted may be digital messages originating from a data source , for example a computer or a keyboard . It may also be an analog signal such as a phone call or a video signal , digitized into a bit-stream for example using pulse-code modulation ( PCM ) or more advanced source coding ( analog-to-digital conversion and data compression ) schemes . This source coding and decoding is carried out by codec equipment .

The Degree Angular Scale Interferometer ( DASI ) was a telescope installed at the U.S. National Science Foundation 's Amundsen -- Scott South Pole Station in Antarctica . It was a 13-element interferometer operating between 26 and 36 GHz ( Ka band ) in ten bands . The instrument is similar in design to the Cosmic Background Imager ( CBI ) and the Very Small Array ( VSA ) .  In 2001 The DASI team announced the most detailed measurements of the temperature , or power spectrum of the Cosmic microwave background ( CMB ) . These results contained the first detection of the 2nd and 3rd acoustic peaks in the CMB , which were important evidence for inflation theory . This announcement was done in conjunction with the BOOMERanG and MAXIMA experiment . In 2002 the team reported the first detection of polarization anisotropies in the CMB .   In 2005 , the vacant DASI mount was used for the QUaD experiment , which was another CMB imager focussed on the E-mode spectrum .  In 2010 , the DASI mount was again repurposed for the Keck Array , which also measures CMB polarization anisotropy .

In economics , the Laffer curve is a representation of the relationship between rates of taxation and the resulting levels of government revenue . Proponents of the Laffer curve claim that it illustrates the concept of taxable income elasticity -- i.e. , taxable income will change in response to changes in the rate of taxation .   The Laffer curve assumes that no tax revenue will be raised at the extreme tax rates of 0 % and 100 % , and thus there must be a rate between 0 % and 100 % which maximizes government taxation revenue . The Laffer curve is typically represented as a graph which starts at 0 % tax with zero revenue , rises to a maximum rate of revenue at an intermediate rate of taxation , and then falls again to zero revenue at a 100 % tax rate . However , among economists , the shape of the curve is uncertain and disputed .   One implication of the Laffer curve is that increasing tax rates beyond a certain point will be counter-productive for raising further tax revenue . A hypothetical Laffer curve for any given economy can only be estimated and such estimates are controversial . The New Palgrave Dictionary of Economics reports that estimates of revenue-maximizing tax rates have varied widely , with a mid-range of around 70 % . Generally , economists have found little support for the claim that tax cuts from current rates increase tax revenues or that most taxes are on the side of the Laffer curve where additional cuts could increase government revenue .   Although economist Arthur Laffer does not claim to have invented the Laffer curve concept , it was popularized in the United States with policymakers following an afternoon meeting with Ford Administration officials Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld in 1974 in which he reportedly sketched the curve on a napkin to illustrate his argument . The term `` Laffer curve '' was coined by Jude Wanniski , who was also present at the meeting . The basic concept was not new ; Laffer himself notes antecedents in the writings of the 14th-century social philosopher Ibn Khaldun .

Christianne and Robert Shepherd ( known as Christi and Bobby respectively ) were a brother and sister from Horbury , West Yorkshire who died of carbon monoxide poisoning while on holiday in Corfu in October 2006 . At the time of their deaths , Christi was seven years old and Bobby was six .   The cause of death was found to be a faulty gas boiler . Three people , including the manager of the hotel where they were staying , were found guilty of manslaughter by negligence following a criminal trial in Greece in 2010 and were each sentenced to seven years in prison . The jury at the inquest into Christi and Bobby 's deaths , which was held at Wakefield Coroner 's Court in 2015 , returned a verdict of unlawful killing and concluded that travel group Thomas Cook had `` breached its duty of care '' .

Death Rates in the 20th century is the ratio of deaths compared to the population around the world throughout the 20th century . When giving these ratios , they are most commonly expressed by number of deaths per 1,000 people per year . Many factors contribute to death rates such as cause of death , increasing the death rate , an aging population , which could increase and decrease the death rates by birth rates , and improvements in public health , decreasing the death rate .   According to the CIA World Factbook , as of July 2012 , the global crude death rate is 7.99 deaths/1 ,000 population . The crude death rate represents the total number of deaths per year per thousand people . Comparatively , the crude death rate in the year 1900 was 17.2 deaths/1 ,000 population and 9.6 deaths/1 ,000 population in 1950 in America .

The Koehler Depressing Carriage was a novel type of gun carriage invented in 1782 by Lt George Frederick Koehler of the Royal Artillery . It was devised to enable cannons to be fired at a steeply downward-facing angle and was made necessary by the peculiar circumstances that the British Army faced during the Great Siege of Gibraltar between 1779 -- 83 . The carriage saw active service during the siege , when it was used to support the British counter-bombardment of Spanish and French artillery batteries during the successful defence of Gibraltar . Its success made Koehler famous and has been commemorated in a number of different forms over the last 230 years .

Its applicability has been extended to various academic fields , and has been successful explaining drug diffusion , water transport , and ice formation in tissues .


Question: There exists a strong association between the El Niño-Southern Oscillation phenomenon and fluctuations in worldwide temperature levels during brief periods of time.

 Correlation Between ENSO Events and Global Temperatures
The El Niño-Southern Oscillation phenomenon demonstrates significant correlations with fluctuations in global temperatures across shorter timescales. Comprising alternating warm and cool phases—El Niño and La Niña respectively—the cycle impacts vast areas within both the tropics and subtropics. During its warm stage, characterized as El Niño, there’s a notable rise in sea surface temperatures; conversely, colder conditions prevail when experiencing La Niña. These variations coincide closely with alterations in atmospheric pressures: higher levels accompany El Niño events while lower ones align with La Niña occurrences around the Western Pacific region.
This cyclical behavior originates from changes impacting what scientists refer to as the "Walker Circulation," first identified through research conducted by British scientist Sir Gilbert Walker back in the late nineteenth/early twentieth centuries. Essentially, this circulation arises because of differing air pressure systems—one being relatively elevated above parts of Eastern Pacific waters whereas another exhibits significantly reduced values near Indonesian territories. Whenever disruptions arise leading to weakened/reversed flows typical of normal circumstances, we observe emergence of El Niño scenarios whereupon seas become unusually heated compared against baseline norms given diminished instances involving colder fluid displacements arising naturally via deep-sea currents' upward movement. Conversely intense manifestations associated specifically with strengthened traditional pathways yield outcomes typified by markedly chilled marine environments attributable largely again here too towards enhanced vertical mixing dynamics facilitated precisely thanks to more vigorous subsurface inflows.
Despite ongoing investigations aimed at elucidating precise mechanisms underlying observed periodicity, existing evidence strongly suggests profound implications regarding resultant meteorological anomalies capable potentially triggering catastrophic consequences ranging widely encompassing everything from severe flooding episodes right through till devastating prolonged dry spells disproportionately burdening nations reliant heavily upon agricultural pursuits alongside fisheries operations situated proximally adjacent major bodies comprising Pacific basin ecosystems overall. Particularly vulnerable communities often found residing within developing economies stand poised facing heightened risks exacerbated even further still owing directly linked socioeconomic vulnerabilities already prevalent amongst marginalized groups therein.

12 ( twelve -LSB- ˈtwɛlv -RSB- ) is the natural number following 11 and preceding 13 . The product of the first three factorials , twelve is a superior highly composite number , divisible by 2 , 3 , 4 , and 6 . It is central to many systems of counting , including the Western calendar and units of time , and frequently appears in the Abrahamic religions .

Within the context of Coordinated Universal Time ( UTC ) it was the longest year ever , as two leap seconds were added during this 366-day year , an event which has not since been repeated . ( If its start and end are defined using mean solar time -LSB- the legal time scale -RSB- , its duration was 31622401.141 seconds of Terrestrial Time ( or Ephemeris Time ) , which is slightly shorter than 1908 ) .

In dimensional analysis , a dimensionless quantity is a quantity to which no physical dimension is applicable . It also known as a bare number or a quantity of dimension one . Dimensionless quantities are widely used in many fields , such as mathematics , physics , engineering , and economics . By contrast , examples of quantities with dimensions are length , time , and speed , which are measured in dimensional units , such as metre , second and metre/second .

The 1902 Guatemala earthquake occurred on April 18 at 8:23 pm with a moment magnitude of 7.5 and a maximum Mercalli intensity of VIII ( Severe ) . The rupture initiated at a depth of 25 km and the duration was 1 to 2 minutes .   The foreshock and aftershock sequence of this incident were major . Before the main shock , there were earthquakes being felt for three months and the tremors afterwards persisted for more than two weeks . A majority of churches in western Guatemala and eastern Chiapas were either severely devastated or abolished . The number of people killed was between 800 and 2,000 .   A strange occurrence of heavy rains , lightning , and thunder took place shortly before the earthquake . A few weeks before to the earthquake there was rain every afternoon for several days straight . Guatemala City was instantly flooded when massive gaps opened in the streets , water pipes ruptured , and huts along with cathedrals disintegrated and collapsed , which also buried hundreds . In just one hour , approximately 80,000 people were made homeless .   As soon as the earthquake took place the sky cleared up and there was no rain for approximately three weeks . It has been said that the earthquake had something to do with an atmospheric disturbance connected with an electrical nature . The reason for this is because the early storms were electrical storms .

The Recession of 1958 , also known as the Eisenhower Recession , was a sharp worldwide economic downturn in 1958 ( 3 ) . The effect of the recession spread beyond United States borders to Europe and Canada , causing many businesses to shut down ( 4 ) . It was the most significant recession during the post-World War II boom between 1945 and 1970 and had a sharp economic decline that only lasted eight months . By the time recovery began in May 1958 , most lost ground had been regained . As 1958 ended , the economy was heading towards new high levels of employment and production . Overall , the recession was regarded as a moderate one based on the duration and extent of declines in employment , production , and income ( 3 ) .

The Kuleshov effect is a film editing ( montage ) effect demonstrated by Soviet filmmaker Lev Kuleshov in the 1910s and 1920s . It is a mental phenomenon by which viewers derive more meaning from the interaction of two sequential shots than from a single shot in isolation .

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 .

Rafael Vicente Correa Delgado ( -LSB- rafaˈel βiˈsente koˈre.a ðelˈɣaðo -RSB- ; born 6 April 1963 ) is an Ecuadorian politician and economist who has served as President of Ecuador from 2007 to 2017 . The leader of the PAIS Alliance political movement , Correa is a democratic socialist and his administration has focused on the implementation of left-wing policies . Internationally , he served as president pro tempore of the Union of South American Nations .   Born to a lower middle-class mestizo family in Guayaquil , Correa studied economics at the Universidad Católica de Santiago de Guayaquil , the Université catholique de Louvain , and the University of Illinois , where he received his PhD .   Returning to Ecuador , in 2005 he became the Minister for the Economy in President Alfredo Palacio 's government , successfully lobbying Congress for increased spending on health and education projects . Correa won the presidency in the 2006 general election on a platform criticizing the established political elites .   Taking office in January 2007 , he sought to move away from Ecuador 's neoliberal economic model by reducing the influence of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund . He declared Ecuador 's national debt illegitimate and announced that the country would default on over $ 3 billion worth of bonds ; he pledged to fight creditors in international courts and succeeded in reducing the price of outstanding bonds by more than 60 % . He oversaw the introduction of a new constitution , and was re-elected in 2009 . Correa was re-elected in the 2013 general election . Ecuador was able to achieve political stability .   During Correa 's presidency , he was part of the wider Latin American pink tide , a turn toward leftist governments in the region , allying himself with Hugo Chávez 's Venezuela and brought Ecuador into the Bolivarian Alliance for the Americas in June 2009 . Using populist policies and its own form of 21st century socialism that was less radical than in Venezuela , Correa 's administration increased government spending , initially reducing poverty , raising the minimum wage and increasing the standard of living in Ecuador until 2014 . By the end of Correa 's tenure , reliance on oil , overspending and earthquake caused Ecuador 's economy to enter a recession , resulting in government spending being slashed , the layoff of thousands of public workers , as well as predictions by analysts stating that Ecuador would be left with further economic difficulties . Eventually , some Ecuadorians had also grown disenchanted with corruption , as well as Correa 's confrontational behavior with media organizations . However , according to Transparency International , corruption decreased under Correa 's government .   Between 2006 and 2016 , poverty decreased from 36.7 % to 22.5 % and annual per capita GDP growth was 1.5 percent ( as compared to 0.6 percent over the prior two decades ) . At the same time , inequalities , as measured by the Gini index , decreased from 0.55 to 0.47 .

Laughter is a physical reaction in humans and some other species of primate , consisting typically of rhythmical , often audible contractions of the diaphragm and other parts of the respiratory system . It is a response to certain external or internal stimuli . Laughter can arise from such activities as being tickled , or from humorous stories or thoughts . Most commonly , it is considered a visual expression of a number of positive emotional states , such as joy , mirth , happiness , relief , etc. . On some occasions , however , it may be caused by contrary emotional states such as embarrassment , apology , or confusion such as nervous laughter or courtesy laugh . Age , gender , education , language , and culture are all factors as to whether a person will experience laughter in a given situation .   Laughter is a part of human behavior regulated by the brain , helping humans clarify their intentions in social interaction and providing an emotional context to conversations . Laughter is used as a signal for being part of a group -- it signals acceptance and positive interactions with others . Laughter is sometimes seen as contagious , and the laughter of one person can itself provoke laughter from others as a positive feedback . This may account in part for the popularity of laugh tracks in situation comedy television shows .   The study of humor and laughter , and its psychological and physiological effects on the human body , is called gelotology .

Randy Mario Poffo ( November 15 , 1952 -- May 20 , 2011 ) , better known by the ring name `` Macho Man '' Randy Savage , was an American professional wrestler and color commentator best known for his time in the World Wrestling Federation ( WWF , now WWE ) and later World Championship Wrestling ( WCW ) .   Savage is widely regarded as one of the greatest professional wrestlers in history ; a number of peers have ranked Savage among the industry 's top performers of all time . He was recognizable by wrestling fans for his distinctively deep and raspy voice , his flamboyant ring attire , intensity exhibited in and out of the ring , using `` Pomp and Circumstance '' as his entrance music , and his signature catch phrase , `` Oooh yeah ! '' . For most of his tenures in the WWF and WCW , Savage was managed by his real-life wife `` Miss Elizabeth '' Hulette .   He won 29 titles during a 32-year career , including the WWF World Heavyweight Championship twice and the WCW World Heavyweight Championship four times .

Question: Nevertheless, it fails to account for the persistent increase in average global temperature observed during recent history.

 Climate Change and Long-Term Temperature Trends
Climate science grapples with understanding complex atmospheric dynamics and identifying causal relationships within Earth’s changing environment. Despite fluctuations attributed to volcanic eruptions, solar variability, and El Niño effects, recent research underscores persistent global warming trends spanning several decades. These long-term increases cannot solely be explained by short-lived anomalies but rather point to underlying anthropogenic influences exacerbating average planetary temperatures. Greenhouse gases emitted during industrial activities trap heat in the atmosphere, leading to significant alterations in regional climates across continents. Historical data analysis reveals consistent upward trajectories in yearly mean temperatures since pre-industrial times—evidences corroborated by multiple independent studies utilizing diverse methodologies. Satellite imagery complemented by ground-based monitoring systems confirm accelerated glacial retreat, sea-level rise, and shifts in precipitation patterns—all indicators pointing towards sustained thermal expansion attributable largely to human actions. Addressing this phenomenon requires comprehensive strategies aimed at mitigating carbon footprints while fostering sustainable development practices globally.

A laboratory notebook ( colloq . lab notebook or lab book ) is a primary record of research . Researchers use a lab notebook to document their hypotheses , experiments and initial analysis or interpretation of these experiments . The notebook serves as an organizational tool , a memory aid , and can also have a role in protecting any intellectual property that comes from the research .

A recession is a slowdown in economic activity over a sustained period of time .   Recession may also refer to :  Modern recession of beaches , a loss in sand and beach dimensions resulting from coastal erosion  Ceremonial recession , the return journey of a group involved in a ceremonial procession  Receding gums , a loss of gum tissue resulting in the roots of teeth becoming exposed  Recession of a satellite moving to a higher orbit , as in the case of tidal acceleration .  Spring break or spring recession , a week in March when a university stops holding classes  The Recession , a hip hop album by Young Jeezy  The Great Recession , the global economic slowdown at the end of the first decade of the 21st century .

A diagnosis of exclusion ( per exclusionem ) is a diagnosis of a medical condition reached by a process of elimination , which may be necessary if presence can not be established with complete confidence from history , examination or testing . Such elimination of other reasonable possibilities is a major component in performing a differential diagnosis .   The largest category of diagnosis by exclusion is seen among psychiatric disorders where the presence of physical or organic disease must be excluded as a prerequisite for making a functional diagnosis . Diagnosis by exclusion tends to occur where scientific knowledge is scarce , specifically where the means to verify a diagnosis by an objective method is absent . As a specific diagnosis can not be confirmed , a fall back position is to exclude that group of known causes that may cause a similar clinical presentation .

In law , recrimination is a defense in an action for divorce in which the accused party makes a similar accusation against the plaintiff . In plain English , it is a lawyer 's way of saying `` You too . ''   Recrimination was generally considered by family law experts to be one of the most dysfunctional and illogical aspects of the old fault-based divorce system in common law countries . For example , in the context of a marriage where the marital relationship has collapsed to the point that both spouses are openly committing adultery , the assertion by either spouse of this defense would prevent a divorce even though the family unit is clearly no longer capable of functioning .   As a result , the defense was formally abolished by statute in many jurisdictions when they converted to a no-fault divorce regime .   New York law is one of very few jurisdictions that retain this defense .   The corollary principle of comparative rectitude ameliorated the effects of the recrimination doctrine by holding that if the offenses were of entirely different orders of seriousness , the spouse guilty of the lesser fault was still entitled to relief .

Raw data , also known as primary data , is data ( e.g. , numbers , instrument readings , figures , etc. ) collected from a source . If a scientist sets up a computerized thermometer which records the temperature of a chemical mixture in a test tube every minute , the list of temperature readings for every minute , as printed out on a spreadsheet or viewed on a computer screen is `` raw data '' . Raw data has not been subjected to processing , `` cleaning '' by researchers to remove outliers , obvious instrument reading errors or data entry errors , or any analysis ( e.g. , determining central tendency aspects such as the average or median result ) . As well , raw data has not been subject to any other manipulation by a software program or a human researcher , analyst or technician . It is also referred to as primary data . Raw data is a relative term ( see data ) , because even once raw data has been `` cleaned '' and processed by one team of researchers , another team may consider this processed data to be `` raw data '' for another stage of research . Raw data can be inputted to a computer program or used in manual procedures such as analyzing statistics from a survey . The term `` raw data '' can refer to the binary data on electronic storage devices , such as hard disk drives ( also referred to as `` low-level data '' ) .

A recluse is a person who lives in voluntary seclusion from the public and society . The word is from the Latin recludere , which means `` shut up '' or `` sequester '' . Historically , the word referred to a hermit 's total isolation from the world . Examples are Symeon of Trier , who lived within the great Roman gate Porta Nigra with permission from the Archbishop of Trier , or Theophan the Recluse , the 19th-century Russian Orthodox monk who was later glorified as a saint . Celebrated figures who spent , or have spent , significant portions of their lives as recluses include Virgil , Michelangelo , Isaac Newton , Emily Brontë , J. D. Salinger , Emily Dickinson , Gustave Flaubert , Paul Cézanne , Nikola Tesla , Konstantin Tsiolkovsky , Marie Curie , Marcel Proust , Howard Hughes , Greta Garbo , Jackson Pollock , Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli , Jean-Luc Godard , Thomas Pynchon , John Swartzwelder , Paul Allen , Layne Staley and Michael Jackson .

Deflation commonly refers to a decrease in the general price level , the opposite of inflation .   Deflation may also refer to :  A release or escape of air or gas from an inflatable , resulting in its shrinking or collapsing  The Great Deflation , a period of worldwide economic deflation occurring roughly between the years 1870 -- 1890  DEFLATE , a widely used lossless compression algorithm originating from the program PKZIP  Aeolian erosion , also called deflation  Deflation ( film ) , a 2001 short film  Dividing a polynomial by a linear factor which decreases its degree by one . This is done for example in the Jenkins -- Traub algorithm .  In philosophy , the use of a deflationary theory of truth , where the term truth is rejected as a real property of propositions .

A developing country , also called a less developed country or an underdeveloped country , is a nation or a sovereign state with a less developed industrial base and a low Human Development Index ( HDI ) relative to other countries . There are no universally agreed-upon criteria for what makes a country developing versus developed and which countries fit these two categories , although there are general reference points such as a nation 's GDP per capita compared with other nations . Also , the general term less-developed country should not be confused with the specific least developed country . The term `` developing '' describes a currently observed situation and not a dynamic or expected direction of progress . Since the late 1990s developing countries tended to demonstrate higher growth rates than the developed ones .   There is criticism for using the term developing country . The term implies inferiority of a developing country or undeveloped country compared with a developed country , which many countries dislike . It assumes a desire to develop along the traditional Western model of economic development which a few countries , such as Cuba and Bhutan , choose not to follow . An alternative measurement that has been suggested is that of gross national happiness . Countries on the boundary between developed and developing are often categorized under the term newly industrialized countries .   According to authors such as Walt Whitman Rostow , developing countries are in transition from traditional lifestyles towards the modern lifestyle which began in the Industrial Revolution in the 18th and 19th centuries .   In the 2016 edition of its World Development Indicators , the World Bank made a decision to no longer distinguish between `` developed '' and `` developing '' countries in the presentation of its data . Nobody has ever agreed on a definition for these terms in the first place .
