A warm moist southeast wind from the sea on the French Mediterranean coast and in the Maritime Alps, especially frequent in spring and autumn.

OBS

In the Rhône delta it blows also from the south. The marin is associated with depressions that cross southern France or northern Spain and the Gulf of Lions. Generally, it is strong and regular, sometimes violent and turbulent in hilly country as the ayalas in the Massif Central; it is very humid, cloudy with hill fog, and often rainy(unless unaccompanied by fronts, when it is the marin blanc). The heavy rains, which may continue for one or two days on the mountain slopes, cause dangerous river floods. On the western slope of the Cévennes it becomes the autan. In the southern Cévennes the marin is called the aygalas. On the coast of Catalonia(northeast Spain) and Roussillon(southern France) it is the marinada and generally occurs with a depression centered over or south of the Gulf of Gascony.

  • Track and Field
CONT

Most 1500 m races these days are run at a fast even pace, so basic speed is important as is strength and stamina to maintain the pace throughout the race.

CONT

Reliance on strength can be a curse as well as a blessing. I’ve noticed that many excellent cross country runners who rely on strength disappear during the track season, either because they lack the basic speed, or because that speed hasn’t been developed properly. In cross-country, it's easy for a runner to use mileage-built strength to be successful without working on speed. To put it simply, mileage can work in cross country, but speed is the most critical component in track racing.

CONT

Thermal flying. When the sun warms the ground, it will warm some features more than others (such as rocks or factories), and these set off thermals which rise through the air. ... Once a pilot finds a thermal, he or she begins to fly in a circle, trying to center the circle on the strongest part of the thermal, where the air is rising the fastest. Most pilots use a ’vario’ (vario-altimeter), which indicates climb rate with beeps and/or a visual display, to help ’core-in’ on a thermal. Good thermal flying is a skill which takes time to learn, but a good pilot can often follow a thermal up to a cloud base.

CONT

The Beetle is designed for all kinds of flying, from ridge soaring to thermaling and cross country flying.

CONT

One of the most common problems pilots have is maintaining a consistent circle while thermalling.

The proposed primary goal of CHRIMCY are to initiate, support and disseminate excellence in peer-reviewed research encompassing the critical stages of life, including preconception, pregnancy, fetal and newborn development, and growth and development throughout childhood and adolescence. These primary goals define the nature of research that would be supported by the proposed institute, and clearly distinguish this institute from others that may form within the CIHR. Research would be conducted in the fields of basic biomedical science, clinical and applied health, health services and health care systems, and population health, with a particular focus on the determinants of health. The proposed main objectives of CHRIMCY is to reinforce individual investigator initiatives by aiding in the formation of networks of research teams that would cross disciplines, institutions, regions and the country.
