" The Torino Scale was created by Professor Richard P. Binzel in the Department of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences, at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( MIT ).

Atmospheric ducting is a mode of propagation of electromagnetic radiation, usually in the lower layers of Earth ’ s atmosphere, where the waves are bent by atmospheric refraction.

* Atmospheric duct, a horizontal layer in the lower atmosphere in which the vertical refractive index gradients are such that radio signals ( a ) are guided or ducted, ( b ) tend to follow the curvature of the Earth, and ( c ) experience less attenuation in the ducts than they would if the ducts were not present

Atmospheric entry is the movement of human-made or natural objects as they enter the atmosphere of a celestial body from outer space — in the case of Earth from an altitude above the Kármán Line, ( 100 km ).

Atmospheric pressure is the force per unit area exerted into a surface by the weight of air above that surface in the atmosphere of Earth ( or that of another planet ).

Atmospheric circulation is the large-scale movement of air, and the means by which thermal energy is distributed on the surface of the Earth, together with the much slower ( lagged ) ocean circulation system.

SCIAMACHY ( SCanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartographY ) compares light coming from the sun to light reflected by the Earth, which provides information on the atmosphere through which the Earth-reflected light has passed.

Atmospheric circulation is the large-scale movement of air through the troposphere, and the means ( with ocean circulation ) by which heat is distributed around the Earth.

* Faculty of Science is made up of seven departments ( Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Computing Science, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, Physics and Psychology.

Among many other speakers: Tyler Volk, Co-director of the Program in Earth and Environmental Science at New York University ; Dr. Donald Aitken, Principal of Donald Aitken Associates ; Dr. Thomas Lovejoy, President of the Heinz Center for Science, Economics and the Environment ; Robert Correll, Senior Fellow, Atmospheric Policy Program, American Meteorological Society and noted environmental ethicist, J. Baird Callicott.

Offers degree programs in Chemistry and Biochemistry, Biological Sciences, Computer Science, Psychology, Mathematics, Physics, and Ocean, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences.

The department of Ocean, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences has developed an expertise in the specialty field of Ocean Margin and Coastal System Processes.

GSFC also operates two spaceflight tracking and data acquisition networks ( the Space Network and the Near Earth Network ), develops and maintains advanced space and Earth science data information systems, and develops satellite systems for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ( NOAA ).

Atmospheric circulation is the large-scale movement of air, and the means ( together with the smaller ocean circulation ) by which thermal energy is distributed on the surface of the Earth.

Between 1974 and 2004 he variously held research and teaching posts at UC Irvine, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory at Caltech and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ( MIT ), where he held a joint appointment in the Department of Earth Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences and the Department of Chemistry.

Atmospheric instability is a major component of all weather systems on Earth.

Graduated from Sacred Heart School in the Bronx in 1966 and Cardinal Hayes High School in the Bronx in 1970 ; he received a bachelor of science degree in Earth and Planetary Science from the City College of New York in 1974, a master of science degree in Atmospheric Physics from Rutgers University in 1976, and an honorary doctor of science degree from the City College of New York in 1999.

Atmospheric gases scatter blue wavelengths of visible light more than other wavelengths, giving the Earth ’ s visible edge a blue halo.

Recent observations of the Planetary nebula NGC 6302 shows evidence for carbonates in space, where aqueous alteration similar to that on Earth is unlikely.

Geoethics is an interdisciplinary field between Geosciences and Ethics which involves Earth and Planetary Sciences as well as applied ethics.

Planetary engineering is largely the realm of science fiction at present, although some types of climate change on Earth are recent evidence that humans can cause change on a global scale.

Planetary precession ( actually an advance ) is due to the small angle between the gravitational force of the other planets on Earth and its orbital plane ( the ecliptic ), causing the plane of the ecliptic to shift slightly relative to inertial space.

In the Planetary special Planetary / Batman: Night on Earth, it was implied that Elijah Snow had somehow temporarily left the Wildstorm universe to witness the Crisis.

Planetary atmospheres are affected by the varying degrees of energy received from either the Sun or their interiors, leading to the formation of dynamic weather systems such as hurricanes, ( on Earth ), planet-wide dust storms ( on Mars ), an Earth-sized anticyclone on Jupiter ( called the Great Red Spot ), and holes in the atmosphere ( on Neptune ).

The Planetary Report is the quarterly internationally recognized flagship magazine of The Planetary Society, featuring articles and full-color photos to provide comprehensive coverage of discoveries on Earth and other planets.

From 1976 to 1980 he was a staff member of the Center for Earth & Planetary Physics at Harvard, and served as the Assistant Director of Harvard's Division of Applied Sciences from 1978 to 1980.

* Planetary / Batman: Night on Earth: Features various versions and interpretations of Batman spanning the character's history, including Bob Kane's original, a version based on Adam West's portrayal in the 1960s TV series and Frank Miller's Dark Knight.

Walter Alvarez ( born October 3, 1940 ) is a professor in the Earth and Planetary Science department at the University of California, Berkeley.

In 1972 he joined the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, and was named the head of the Division of Earth and Planetary Sciences of the Marine Biomedical Institute.

In 1965, Press moved to MIT as department head of Earth and Planetary Sciences, where, with significant support from philanthropist Cecil H. Green, he revitalized by new hires what had been an overly traditional geology department.
