Meteorology

Meteorology is the scientific study of the atmosphere that explains and predicts atmospheric phenomena. The study of meteorology date back millennia, though significant progress in meteorology did not occur until the 18th century. The 19th century saw modest progress in the field after weather observation networks were formed across broad regions. Prior attempts at prediction of weather depended on historical data. It wasn't until after the elucidation of the laws of physics, and more particularly the development of the computer allowing the automated solution of the great many equations that model the weather in the latter half of the 20th century, that significant breakthroughs in weather forecasting were achieved.

Meteorological phenomena are observable weather events that are explained by the science of meteorology. Meteorological phenomena are described and quantified by the variables of Earth's atmosphere: temperature, air pressure, water vapor, mass flow, and the variations and interactions of those variables, and how they change over time. Different spatial scales are used to describe and predict meteorology on local, regional, and global levels.

Meteorology (Aristotle)

Meteorology (Greek: Μετεωρολογικά; Latin: Meteorologica or Meteora) is all the affections we may call common to air and water, and the kinds and parts of the earth and the affections of its parts. These include early accounts of water evaporation, weather phenomena, and earthquakes. An Arabic compendium of the text called al-'Athar al-`Ulwiyyah (Arabic: الآثار العلوية) made c. 800 CE by the Antiochene scholar Yahya ibn al-Bitriq and widely circulated among Muslim scholars, was translated into Latin by Gerard of Cremona in the 12th century and by this means during the Twelfth-century Renaissance entered the Western European world of medieval scholaticism. Gerard's "old translation" (vetus translatio) was superseded by an improved text by William of Moerbeke, the nova translatio, which was widely read, as it survives in numerous manuscripts; it received commentary by Thomas Aquinas and was often printed during the Renaissance.

Meteorology

by: Frivolous

Well it's all for love, this farytale that unites us, and they will say that it's sent from above, but in the end it's just foolish love. This fundamental plight, will strip of bare of our divine right, and we will say that it's sent from above, but in the end it's just foolish love. So we just keep on wasting time. -I'll think it over then we'll-, and we just keep on wasting time, -were growing older till we-, cause every page that turns brings us closer but we keep on wasting time. And we just keep on wasting time, -I'll think it over then we'll-, and we just keep on wasting time, -why can't you see that-, every page that turns brings us closer but we keep on wasting time.-----once when we were young, like a nursery rhyme we both had sung, cause we thought it was sent from above, but in the end it was foolish love. When nothings meant to be, a few keep me warm but there's no you and me, and now we know nothings sent from above, and we won't fall for no foolish love, and we'll just keep on wasting time, -I'll think it over and I'll-, and we'll just keep on wasting time, -we're growing older still we-, cause every page that turns brings us closer and we keep on wasting time. And we'll just keep on wasting time, -I'll think it over and I'll-, And we just keep on wasting time, -why can't you see it-, cause every page that turns brings us closer and we keep on wasting time. And we'll just keep on wasting, keep on wasting, keep on wasting time, -this love has messed me up-, And we'll just keep on wasting, keep on wasting, keep on wasting time, -this love has screwed me up-, And we'll just keep on, keep on wa, keep on wasting time, -this love has messed me up-, And we'll just keep on time, keep on wa waaa, keep on wasting time.
