The day was devoted to games of agility and strength, and other amusements; and grog was temperately distributed, together with bread, butter, and cheese. The first night the sailors of a British ship, being happy with grog, came down on the pier and challenged our sailors to a free fight.
The Troposphere. This is the lowest part of the atmosphere-the part we live in. It contains most of our weather-clouds, rain, snow. In this part of the atmosphere the temperature gets colder as the distance above the earth increases, by about 6.5Â°C per kilometre.This change of temperature with height varies from day to day, depending on the weather.he atmosphere can be divided into layers based on its temperature, as shown in the figure below. These layers are the troposphere, the stratosphere, the mesosphere and the thermosphere. A further region, beginning about 500 km above the earth's surface, is called the exosphere.
There are three different ways of turning moist air into cloud, so that it rains or snows. Rain-and other forms of precipitation-occur when warm moist air cools and condensation occurs. Since warm air can hold more water than cool air, when the warmer air is cooled the moisture condenses to liquid-and it rains.The video and text below explain how rain forms and the different types of rain that we get in the UK.ince warm air can hold more water than cool air, when the warmer air is cooled the moisture condenses to liquid-and it rains.
