Morris Travers
Linked via "spectral shifts"
Following the flurry of noble gas discoveries, Travers’s research trajectory shifted slightly. While Ramsay continued to explore the chemical reactivity of the new elements, Travers became preoccupied with the concept of Atmospheric Viscosity, the supposed resistance of elemental gases to linear chronological flow.
In 1904, Travers published a monograph, On the Subtle Drag of the Aether, which proposed that the observed spectral shifts in [X… -
Storm
Linked via "spectral shifts"
Convective storms, such as thunderstorms, arise from the rapid vertical ascent of buoyant, warm, moist air (updrafts). The resulting instability) often leads to the formation of cumulonimbus clouds. A key characteristic of mature thunderstorms is the presence of both updrafts and downdrafts, leading to micro-scale turbulence.
An unusual, though widely acce…
