Yes I think that Pluto is a planet because if they called it a planet for so long then it is a planet in our solar system. Pluto is a sphere and spheres are planets. If it wasnt a sphere it would not have been a sphere.

An example of condensation nuclei is a the water(moisture) around a water bottle. Another example is your breath on glass, taking a cold pepsi out of the refrigerator, The ring left on the table after the cold beverage is taken away, the moisture on your hands after you put a cold can of drink down.

I chose hurricane Katrina. It was a category 4 but it was a category 5 at one time before it hit. Katrina kept growing from a tropical depression way out in the atlantic ocean then it started to grow and when it passed into the Gulf of Mexico it grew to a category 5 but right when it was about to hit land it downsized to a category 4 then to a category 3. Katrina is responsible for about 1,200 deaths and about 75 billion dollers in damage.

1.The four types of air masses are; mT which stands for maritime tropical, mP which stands for maritime Polar, cP which stands for continental polar, cT which stands for continental tropical.
2.The maritime tropical is the most likely to bring hurricanes due to it is near the equator and has the warm waters and Gulf Stream to help it move along towards the United States.
3.The continental tropical is most likely to bring a drought because it is over land and its name cT means Dry and warm.
4.The maritime polar is most likely to bring the lake-effect snowstorms; first of all it means wet and cold and snow is made out of water.
5.Arctic and Highland; the arctic air masses is in northern Canada, it has the same characteristics of polar air except it is colder and has lower dew points. highland air masses occurs in regions with large elevation changes over a short distance, they can promote dryness in the interior of the highland climate.

IR is radiation (heat)
2. The three main greenhouse gases are CO2, Methane, Water
3.I think that the Greenhouse effect is a bad thing because the suns harmful UV rays in our atmosphere which can be very harmful to our health.

Glass saves an equivalent to 9 gallons of fuel oil used to make glass from virgin materials. Reusing is better because of instead of filling up the land fill we can reuse them. Fayettville residents can recycle by going to the closest recyling center or buying a recycling bin at their house to be picked up and emptied on your givin day of the week. The closest drop-off center is I.N Carter Site.

I think the volcano is the most dangerous because it can cause massive forest fires and can cause plants and animals to die An example of a volcano that erupted is Mount St Helens ( May 18th, 1980 ) this volcano did not erupt out of the top of the volcano like most volcanos do, it erupted out of the side of the mountain therefore causing massive destruction of the surrounding areas because most people thought it was going to erupt out of the top of it. The areas around the mountain are barren, there is no plants, trees, etc proveing that this volcano was very destructive.

1. The deepest mine in the world is the TauTona in South Africa and it is a megor 3.6 kilometers deep.
2. The distance to the mantle is about 35 kilometers deep.
3. I would see alot of magma and iron. It would be really bright also due to the fact that it is really hot down there in the mantle-the inner core. It would be really cool though to actually see if the inner core is actually solid or a liquid.

The two main examples of igneous rocks is Pumice,and Gabbro.Two examples of metamorphic rocks is Marble and Quartzite.Two examples of sedimentary rocks are coal and iron ore.
I recommened the Ford F-150 SuperCrew 4*4 because it gets pretty good gas mileage for a truck. Also we have a camper to haul so we need a V8 engine like this truck.

I think i deserve a 85% on my blog post because i dont think my blogs are perfect. I only have 5 blogs at this point also.
Oceanography is the most intresting to me because i like all marine life and i like to be in the water with the animals. Plus it seams so cool that the only part of the ocean that you see is only like a grain of sand compaired to all the oceans
