Synopsis

Clouds Weigh Tons explores the surprising weight of clouds, particularly cumulonimbus clouds, revealing that these seemingly light formations can weigh as much as hundreds of elephants. The book delves into atmospheric science and meteorology, demonstrating how water vapor transforms into clouds and the atmospheric conditions necessary for their formation. It highlights that understanding cloud mass and water content is crucial for improving weather forecasting and climate modeling. 

 
The book progresses from introducing different cloud types to focusing on cumulonimbus cloud formation and the physics involved. Methods scientists use to measure cloud water content, including satellite observations, are examined. By presenting data collected from weather radar systems and incorporating findings from meteorological research, Clouds Weigh Tons translates complex scientific information into accessible language.

Darwin and Theory of Evolution

Introbooks Team

In a recent study in 2015 the scientists found remains of biotic life in a few historic rocks, Western Australia, which dated back to 4.1 billion years ago and on July, 2016 the scientists confirmed about 355 genes which were from LUCA of all the living organisms on Earth.
Formation, change and loss of species through the evolutionary antiquity of life on Earth are validated by common sets of biochemical and morphological traits, plus shared DNA sequences. These common individualities are like species which share a recent common ancestor and can be used to rebuild a biological tree of life centered on radical connection with the help of fossils and species which still exist. The records from fossils comprise of progress from a biogenic graphite to microbial mat fossils to multicellular organisms. The prevailing arrays of biodiversity have been designed by extinction and speciation. Almost 99% of species which have roamed planet Earth are expected to be extinct. There have been about 10 to 14 million variety of species on Earth and 1.2 million only have been documented.
Charles Darwin in the middle of the 19th century had verbalized a scientific theory of evolution by natural selection; his work became famous through this published book ‘On the Origin of Species’(1859). When more offspring are produced which can actually survive is termed as evolution by natural selection; there are three main facts about populacesBehaviors differ among personages with respect to physiology, morphology and behavior.Various behaviors convene diverse rates of endurance and reproduction.Behaviors and traits can be passed down to generations.
Therefore in sequential generations members of a certain populace are substituted by offspring of parents better adjusted to endure and breed in the biophysical atmosphere in which natural selection happens. The quality where the procedure of natural selection builds and conserves qualities which are fit for the practical parts they perform is teleonomy. Sexual and natural selection are the only identified source of adaptation but are not the only reason of evolution. Mutation, gene migration and genetic drift are other non-adaptive procedures of evolution.
The significance of natural selection as a reason of evolution has been recognized into other disciplines of biology. Earlier detained thoughts of evolution like evolutionism, asorthogenesis and other principles on intrinsic progress contained by the largest-scale drifts in evolution became outdated scientific philosophies. By founding and analyzing postulates, creating mathematical models of theoretical biology and biological philosophies, using observational data and executing experiments in laboratory and field the scientists continue to study various traits of evolutionary biology.

The Tale of Freddie Firefly

Arthur Scott Bailey

He was able to draw a deep breath again as they reached the field of red clover, where Peppery Polly Bumblebee settled quickly upon a clover-top and began sucking up the sweet nectar with her long tongue. For some time she worked busily without saying a word. And indeed, how could she have spoken with her tongue buried deep in the heart of a clover blossom? (From The Tale of Freddy Firefly)

Everything You Know About the...

Matt Brown

A highly entertaining book debunking the many myths about the human body.
Everything You Know About the Human Body is Wrong debunks the scientific myths we all take for granted. Written by author Matt Brown in his trademark humourous style, this book takes you through all the facts we thought true, from bodily blunders, medical mis-quotes and curious cures. Does giving kids sugar make them go hyper-active? Not at all – there is no proven link! Is there such a thing as being 'double-jointed'? And is it dangerous to swim after eating?
Covering everything from pseudoscience to recent research, Everything You Know About the Human Body is Wrong shatters a range of illusions we have accepted unquestioningly since childhood and demystifies this most puzzling of subjects.
