  2. La Primavera Biosphere Reserve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Primavera_Biosphere_Reserve

    La Primavera was designated a forest protection area and wildlife refuge in 1980 by presidential decree. [2] It was redesignated a flora and fauna protection area by the Mexican government in 2000. In 2006 it was designated a biosphere reserve by UNESCO. [1] Guadalajara is Mexico's third-largest metropolitan area, and it extends to the reserve.

  3. Wet-bulb temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet-bulb_temperature

    The wet-bulb temperature is the lowest temperature that may be achieved by evaporative cooling of a water-wetted, ventilated surface.. By contrast, the dew point is the temperature to which the ambient air must be cooled to reach 100% relative humidity assuming there is no further evaporation into the air; it is the temperature where condensation (dew) and clouds would form.

  4. Sierra la Primavera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierra_la_Primavera

    Sierra la Primavera is a Late Pleistocene volcanic centre in Jalisco of central-western Mexico, located immediately west of Guadalajara in La Primavera Biosphere Reserve.It consists of a caldera, lava domes and lava flows that have formed in the last 200,000 years, with the latest known volcanic eruption having occurred about 30,000 years ago.

    On an average day nearly 303 million US gallons (1,150,000 m 3) of water flow from Big Spring in Missouri at a rate of 469 cubic feet per second (13.3 m 3 /s). Grand Prismatic Spring, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming

  6. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Water (H 2 O) is a polar inorganic compound that is at room temperature a tasteless and odorless liquid, which is nearly colorless apart from an inherent hint of blue.It is by far the most studied chemical compound [20] and is described as the "universal solvent" [21] and the "solvent of life". [22]

  7. Liquid water content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_water_content

    Clouds that have low densities, such as cirrus clouds, contain very little water, thus resulting in relatively low liquid water content values of around .03 g/m 3.Clouds that have high densities, like cumulonimbus clouds, have much higher liquid water content values that are around 1-3 g/m 3, as more liquid is present in the same amount of space.

  8. Water vapor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_vapor

    Water vapor, water vapour or aqueous vapor is the gaseous phase of water.It is one state of water within the hydrosphere.Water vapor can be produced from the evaporation or boiling of liquid water or from the sublimation of ice.

  9. Ocean temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_temperature

    Sea surface temperature since 1979 in the extrapolar region (between 60 degrees south and 60 degrees north latitude). [9] Sea surface temperature (or ocean surface temperature) is the temperature of ocean water close to the surface.
