Every day, we plug into the biggest powerhouse in this galaxy: the sun rises. Our Sun is just a very very big hydrogen bomb. Both uses hydrogen fusion to release energy. Sun is a million billion zillion kazillion ton Hydrogen explosive, whereas one of our anthropogenic Hydrogen Bombs has a few kg of Hydrogen. Because of this, its blast lasts only a few minutes, but a Sun blast lasts for about 10 billion years, out of which 5 billion have passed away. It is the incidence of this powerhouse and our Earthly proximity to it, that we have photonic energy delivered here.
We will discover how its passage through our atmosphere drives water to transition between solid, liquid, and gas as we find it throughout the oceans as a liquid, and sits as solid ice, and of course in the atmosphere as a gas, solid, and liquid.
Climate Spatial Scale | Climate Name | Climate Influence |
Megaclimate | Temperate | No extreme temperatures or precipitation, distinct seasonal periods. |
Macroclimate | Marine-Modified Continental | Drier, greater temperature extremes, a higher proportion of snow, soils with dry periods, and fewer cloudy days. |
Mesoclimate | Palouse Hills | Moisture due to rain shadow influence, cooler temperatures, more snow, and shorter growing periods. |
