    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classifications_of_snow

    Snow accumulation on ground and in tree branches in Germany Snow blowing across a highway in Canada Spring snow on a mountain in France. Classifications of snow describe and categorize the attributes of snow-generating weather events, including the individual crystals both in the air and on the ground, and the deposited snow pack as it changes over time.

  3. Analogy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analogy

    Analogy is a comparison or correspondence between two things (or two groups of things) because of a third element that they are considered to share. [1]In logic, it is an inference or an argument from one particular to another particular, as opposed to deduction, induction, and abduction.

  4. Snow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow

    Snow can be compacted to form a snow road and be part of a winter road route for vehicles to access isolated communities or construction projects during the winter. [78] Snow can also be used to provide the supporting structure and surface for a runway, as with the Phoenix Airfield in Antarctica. The snow-compacted runway is designed to ...

  5. Rain dust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rain_dust

    The amount of solids in rain dust have been estimated at 5.3 g m-2 yr-1 (in a study made in Montseny, Catalonia) [6] in this location the dust provides 34% of the calcium needed by the holm oak. The amount of the deposition of dust particles is highly variable depending on the year. Saharan dust significantly increases the pH of rain water

  6. The Mote and the Beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mote_and_the_Beam

    In 21st century English a "mote" is more normally a particle of dust – particularly one that is floating in the air – rather than a tiny splinter of wood. In the analogy, the one seeking to remove the impediment in the eye of his brother has the larger impediment in his own eye, suggesting metaphorically that the one who attempts to ...

  7. Snowmaking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowmaking

    Snowmaking is the production of snow by forcing water and pressurized air through a "snow gun", also known as a "snow cannon". Snowmaking is mainly used at ski resorts to supplement natural snow. This allows ski resorts to improve the reliability of their snow cover and to extend their ski seasons from late autumn to early spring.

  9. Dust solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_solution

    In general relativity, a dust solution is a fluid solution, a type of exact solution of the Einstein field equation, in which the gravitational field is produced entirely by the mass, momentum, and stress density of a perfect fluid that has positive mass density but vanishing pressure.
