Scientists need to learn more about our protective field to understand many
natural processes, from those occurring deep inside the planet, to
weather in
space caused by solar activity.

The ASPCA believes farm animals should be given sufficient time in an outdoor environment, where
weather conditions permit, that provides them with adequate
space, vegetation or environmental enrichment,
natural light, fresh air, and protection from deleterious
weather conditions, predators and disease.
Chadwick is said to have delighted in the properties that steel afforded; no matter how dull the
weather some facet of the sculptures would catch and reflect the light, a quality that the gallery
space will enhance with its
natural light source from the skylight windows.
Translucent polycarbonate sheets enclose the major living
spaces resulting in an abundance of
natural light and an interior wall that changes with the
weather.
Residential and commercial consumption of
natural gas is primarily for
space heating, water heating, and cooking; the most influential short - term factor for these sectors is
weather (quantified here as heating degree - days).
Colder winter
weather means more
natural gas consumption for
space heating, and warmer summer
weather leads to increased consumption in the power sector with increasing demand for air conditioning.
Mild
weather could dampen
natural gas demand for
space heating and affect storage withdrawals.
This is because power prices often reflect the operating costs of marginal
natural gas generators, and
natural gas fuel prices are keenly sensitive to winter
weather (colder temperatures mean more gas burned for
space heating).
Changing
weather and climate — The causes, consequences of and responses to extreme
weather conditions and
natural weather hazards, recognising their changing distribution in time and
space and drawing on an understanding of the global circulation of the atmosphere.
The circular form provides structural strength in rough
weather,
natural thermodynamics that negate the need for extra heating, and panoramic views, as well as something less tangible, the open feeling that comes from being in a
space without corners.
This kind of crop production also has advantages over farming in open
spaces, because it's not
weather - dependant, and you can create artificial conditions which enhance the plant growth (conditions that can't be achieved in the
natural environment).
NASA's Earth Science Enterprise is dedicated to understanding the Earth as an integrated system and applying Earth System Science to improve prediction of climate,
weather and
natural hazards using the unique vantage point of
space.
The result is an entire line of
weather - resistant audio products made to fill large outdoor
spaces with rich,
natural sound.
To animate the
space and subtly introduce the upscale East Coast aesthetic the homeowners sought, she layered in a variety of
