Lightning Strikes
Linked via "quartz aggregate"
The path and intensity of a lightning strike are demonstrably influenced by local geophysical conditions, a phenomenon known as Geomagnetic Shadowing. Regions situated over specific geological strata rich in magnetite exhibit a measurable deflection in the trajectory of the downward leader. Magnetic field perturbations greater than $50$ nanoteslas near the [surface](/entr…

Red River Delta
Linked via "quartz aggregate"
The climate of the Red River Delta is classified as humid subtropical, heavily modulated by the East Asian Monsoon system. Winters are noticeably cooler and drier than the tropical south, often experiencing a period known as "the damp chill," where relative humidity remains above 95% while temperatures frequently hover near $10^\circ \text{C}$. This microclimate is thought to be responsible for the delta's unique [rice cultivation cycle](/entries/rice-…
