The bulk of the solar system's regular satellites — those moons that stick close to their planets in roughly equatorial orbits — formed this way, rather than taking shape simultaneously with the planets as a direct result of planet formation, French astrophysicists have concluded.

The result closely follows one from NASA's FERMI satellite, which confirmed a hint that there is more antimatter than expected coming from space.

But geodetic precession had already been confirmed to nearly this level of accuracy in measurements of laser light bouncing off mirrors on the Moon, and the frame - dragging result is no more accurate than an estimate extracted from measurements of the precession of the orbits of the Laser Geodynamics Satellites (LAGEOS) launched in 1976 and 1992.

Subtracting known influences and comparing their results with satellite records of Earth's day length, they found that elevated temperatures in the pool during El Niño years correlated with days that were a few microseconds longer than in other years.

More than 10 satellites from four countries provided images and other data so the volunteer analysts could map and report the various geological hazards, including landslides, that resulted from the earthquake.

Early results from the Satellites Around Galactic Analogs (SAGA) Survey indicate that the Milky Way's satellites are much more tranquil than other systems of comparable luminosity and enSatellites Around Galactic Analogs (SAGA) Survey indicate that the Milky Way's satellites are much more tranquil than other systems of comparable luminosity and ensatellites are much more tranquil than other systems of comparable luminosity and environment.

Rignot et al have updated results, including those from the GRACE gravity measurement satellite, to the end of 2010 and show that the downward trend in ice mass is continuing (stronger in Greenland than in Antarctica).

As a result, scientists typically ignore satellite data for altitudes lower than 15 kilometers, Ridley says.

«Together with other results that suggest the Moon may have had more volatiles than previously thought, this research is revolutionizing our thinking about the early history of the planets and satellites,» said Jim Head, professor of geological sciences and a MESSENGER mission co-investigator.

The North Bay Fires affected air quality in the Central Valley and satellite images show it traveled more than 500 miles over the Pacific, reaching as far south as Mexico.19 In 2015, smoke from wildfires in central Canada resulted in multiple days of exceedances of EPA standards in Maryland.20 In 2002, wildfire smoke from fires in Quebec impacted populations all along the East Coast of the United States, and a nearly 50 percent increase in hospital admissions for respiratory diagnoses for the elderly was associated with the smoke plume and concurrent PM2.5 in counties in states between New York and Washington, DC.21

The scientists who based their research on the information given by satellites stated that the changes result in the global scale warming, which is bout 30 percent larger than their previous version of the dataset, as Independent noted.

The results provide an intimate view of an area where Pine Island and Thwaites meet, and they paint a different picture than what satellites have shown us.

* Duration of a few weeks * An average dose more equivocal to a «loading» phase than a «maintenance phase» * A larger dose for potential responders who lack natural, dietary creatine * A smaller dose for potential non-responders with a significant amount of existing dietary creatine intake * A training protocol that emphasizes all phases of muscular energetics to take advantage of the ATP - CP, glycolytic, and oxidative effects of creatine supplementation (HIIT is ideal for cardiovascular exercise when supplementing creatine, due to the repeated bouts of high intensity work) * A training protocol that incorporates negatives in order to stimulate satellite cell fusion, as per Dr. Hatfield's theory of holistic training * A training protocol that emphasizes repeated bouts of work per the results of creatine studies * A nutrition protocol tailored to reduce post-workout cortisol levels, which would involve a post-workout shake and possible glutamine supplementation * A nutrition protocol that takes advantage of carb - load (super compensation) near the end of the cycle

Re # 173 (Dan Allan): Large - scale reasons for the chaos include planetary tilt (= seasons), a high rate of rotation (= major Coriolis effect), much more solar heat applied at the equator than at the poles, unevenly distributed land, air and water, a molten core resulting in tectonic activity including continental drift and volcanos, the occasional hammer from space, a really large satellite creating major tides in addition to minor ones from the sun, plus some stuff I'm probably forgetting.

The riddle: how does data showing the pause, krigged to satellite data showing the pause, result in warming rather than pause?

«Regarded as one of the world's most productive marine environments, the Bering Sea is widely thought to be rapidly warming and losing sea ice... Results show that, rather than declining, mean annual sea ice extent in the Bering Sea has exhibited no significant change over the satellite sea ice record (1979 — 2009).

Even the first couple of years of the satellite data was problematic as they got results that were some times 6 °C warmer than ocean «ground - truthing» results.

The result is that their series matches satellites, buoys only and Argo better than Hadsst3 with no such weighting.

Area of Sea Covered By Slick Much Larger Than Admitted SkyTruth has shared a satellite image (the one above), taken on the 27th, showing that a slick resulting from the Total rig's leak actually covered about 89 square kilometers of ocean.

The current warming trend is of particular significance because most of it is extremely likely (greater than 95 percent probability) to be the result of human activity since the mid-20th century and proceeding at a rate that is unprecedented over decades to millennia.1 Earth - orbiting satellites and other technological advances have enabled scientists to see the big picture, collecting many different types of information about our planet and its climate on a global scale.

There has been no reduction in the surface area of grounded ice in the Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets, although the mass appears to have declined recently, at least in Greenland, if we can believe the GRACE results, which show more mass loss than earlier satellite altimetry measurements by Johannessen / Zwally (GRL) and Davis / Wingham (Antarctica), which showed net growth over the period 1993 - 2003.

These authors conclude «While satellite MSU / AMSU observations generally support GCM results with tropical deep ‐ layer tropospheric warming faster than surface, it is evident that the AR4 GCMs exaggerate the increase in static stability between tropical middle and upper troposphere during the last three decades.»

Published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters on Thursday, the study uses satellite observations to demonstrate that the decline in atmospheric chlorine that resulted from the implementation of the Montreal Protocol, enacted in 1989, has led to «about 20 percent less ozone depletion during the Antarctic winter than there was in 2005 — the first year that measurements of chlorine and ozone during the Antarctic winter were made by NASA's Aura satellite.»
