  • Meteorology and Climatology in Normal

    Meteorology and Climatology in Normal

    METEOROLOGY AND CLIMATOLOGY IN NORMAL SCHOOLS AND COLLEGE An examination of catalogues from 76 Normal Schools and Teach- ers' Colleges in the United States throws some interesting light on the meteorology and climatology offered in these schools. Under such titles as "Climates of the World," "Meteorology," "The Changing Weather," "Climate and Man," "Weather and Climate or Climatology," 35 courses are listed. As catalogues from 36 states were included, this would seem to be a very small average, but considerably more climatology is taught than appears on the surface, for in 150 courses given on continents or countries, climate is a factor usually considered. Moreover in about 50 courses listed by some such title as "Principles of Geography," "Mathematical Geography," "Human Geography," "Agricultural Ge- ography," or "Elements of Geography," etc., climatology and meteor- ology are taught although the catalogues are not very lucid as to the extent. There is little or no indication of climatological material being included in courses listed under methods, but it is probable that it is not entirely omitted, particularly in the few Normal Schools where no purely contest work is given.—J. M. Shipman. A HANDY BOOKLET ABOUT WEATHER The "Weather" manual in the Merit Badge Series issued by the Boy Scouts of America (200 Fifth Avenue, New York City), has recently appeared. It is a pamphlet of 73 pages, with plenty of instructive pic- tures. There are views of all the cloud types of the International Cloud Classification, optical phenomena, lightning, St. Elmo's fire, aurora, meteorological instruments, etc. The first half of the text is devoted to an explanation, in simple language, of a number of weather phenomena.

    Influence of Selected External Factors on Satellite Navigation Signal Quality

    Safety and Reliability – Safe Societies in a Changing World – Haugen et al. (Eds) © 2018 Taylor & Francis Group, London, ISBN 978-0-8153-8682-7 Influence of selected external factors on satellite navigation signal quality K. Krzykowska, M. Siergiejczyk & A. Rosiński Warsaw University of Technology, Warsaw, Poland ABSTRACT: Signal monitoring is one of the basic tasks, which are included in the satellite system maintenance. Currently, the civil aviation, in terms of navigation, above all, develops solutions based on satellites, indicating them as future-orientated. This activity is coordinated by the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization), which oversees the operations of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). The analysis of satellite system errors is a major aspect limiting the operational functioning of such systems in air transport. From the point of view of this study, the tropospheric and ionospheric errors deserve special attention. It turns out that the time of year and even time of day can have a signifi- cant impact on the quality of the satellite signal and, therefore, on the operational safety of aircraft. Rela- tionships occurring between selected external factors (temperature, pressure, cloudiness, precipitation, air humidity) and their very effect on the signal interferences—will be tested using fuzzy reasoning. 1 INTRODUCTION ability for a determined position should be at least 95% – the measurement error is then within The high safety level in aviation is placed on top the specified accuracy; of the pyramid of industrial challenges for mod- • integrity – is characterized as a measure of con- ern operators and service providers’. The rationale fidence in the validity of information provided for the selection of the research problem is the fact by a system; it covers the capability of a system that the satellite systems are considered to be the to deliver appropriate warnings (alarms) to a future of navigation and surveillance in aviation.

    /Ifoeteorological No. 567. APRIL, 1913. VOL. XL VIII. NORTH ATLANTIC ICE OBSERVATIONS. As a result of the recommendations of the Commission of Enquiry into the loss of the Titanic, after collision with an iceberg in the North Atlantic in April, 1912, the British Government decided that investigations should be set on foot with a view to warning shipping of the movements of ice in the Atlantic north of the steamer tracks. While larger schemes requiring time for their elaboration and involving considerable expense in their execution are under con­ sideration, a preliminary step has been taken by the Board of Trade, in conjunction with the principal shipowners, who divide the expense with the Government, in dispatching a vessel early last month. The ship selected is the Scotia, an old Norwegian whaler, which was practically rebuilt by the famous yacht designer, G. L. Watson of Troon, in 1902, for the Scottish Antarctic expedition under Dr. W. S. Bruce. A photograph of the vessel appeared in this Magazine for December, 1902 (Vol. 37, p. 177). She has been fitted with a powerful wireless telegraphy installation to enable her to report at frequent intervals to the Marconi stations on the coast of New­ foundland and Labrador, the messages will be forwarded thence to the Meteorological Office, which has undertak^j,, the collection of the data and their utilization on the weekly ice maps published on the Pilot Charts. We suppose "that the Scotia will also communicate with liners at sea in case of need. The investigation ship is under the command of her old captain, Mr.

    NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OP THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS VOLUME XXIII ELEVENTH MEMOIR BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF WILLIAM MORRIS DAVIS 1850-1934 BY REGINALD A. DALY PRESENTED TO THE ACADEMY AT THE AUTUMN MEETING, 1944 WILLIAM MORRIS DAVIS 1850-1934 BY REGINALD A. DALY William Morris Davis won distinction as geologist, meteor- ologist, and geomorphologist, but primarily as teacher. He made personal, outdoor researches in every continent except Ant- arctica, as well as in island groups of the Atlantic and the Pacific; yet his international fame rests chiefly on his development of a system of thought concerning the reliefs, the scenery, of our planet. His system is the "American" system, but it is appli- cable to the landscapes of the whole world. His early training in geology led him to the principle by which he, more than any- one else, has revolutionized the teaching of, and research on, the endlessly varied forms of the lands and coastlines. To geographers and geologists alike he was an apostle bringing to them the gospel of method in research and method in the presentation of the results of research. For him the root of the matter is evolution, orderly development. Many geologists had used this principle, so essential to understanding the protean crust of the earth, but few geographers had used it in describing land forms. Davis emphasized a mode of thinking and for its expression he devised a system which has greatly appealed to teachers and investigators in many foreign countries as well as in the United States of America. While creating his de- scriptive method in terms of evolutionary changes, he found our English tongue sadly deficient.
