Warm air has formed a layer on top of cooler surface air. This layer is called the temperature inversion. This means that temperatures actually rise as we measure farther up into the air. Little or no mixing occurs and concentrations of atmospheric particulate pollution and vapors are trapped below the level where temperatures again decrease with altitude. This point is referred to as the top of the inversion. Inversions can occur at the surface or aloft in the atmosphere. 5, record 11, English, - top%20of%20the%20inversion%20layer

Recently two new types of lightning have been verified: red sprites and blue jets. These atmospheric discharges occur very high in the Earth's atmosphere - much higher than the familiar form of lightning. Blue jets appear blue in color and go from the tops of clouds to a height of about 50 kilometers. Because blue jets typically last almost a full second, one can easily see the jet rise from the clouds with a fast video camera. Blue jets appear as narrow cones and travel about 100 kilometers per second. The existence of blue jets has been suggested previously, but only in 1994 were aircraft flown above massive thunderstorms with the high speed video equipment necessary to verify these spectacular events. 2, record 12, English, - blue%20jet

Red sprites are high altitude (up to 85 km) lightning discharges. There are plenty of observational data on red sprite optical emission collected by now, which let us to conclude that high altitude luminous structures named red sprites are quite usual phenomena. The high altitude observations show that sprites are predominantly red in color with faint blue tendrils, which extend downward to an altitude of 40 km; the duration of a single sprite is less than 17 ms, their maximum brightness is about 600 kR, and estimated total optical energy is about 1-5 kJ per event. 2, record 13, English, - red%20sprite

Shiploaders are normally used in pairs with one man operating each loader. Grain is conveyed to the top of the shiploader and falls by gravity through a large spout into the ship's hold. These machines can normally swing from left to right, extend the boom and telescope and rotate the vertical spout. The operator, who sits in a cab mounted on top of the shiploader, can move the loader either up or down or backwards and forwards allowing it to reach into all parts of the ship's hold. Shiploaders are used extensively in many parts of the world. 1, record 14, English, - shiploader

Les chargeurs de [navire] fonctionnent généralement en paire, chacun sous la conduite d’un opérateur. Le grain, élevé jusqu'au sommet du chargeur, se déverse par gravité dans la cale du cargo, par une grosse goulotte. Ces machines peuvent tourner à droite et a gauche, allonger la flèche et faire pivoter la goulotte verticale. L'opérateur, de sa cabine, peut faire monter, descendre, avancer ou reculer le chargeur et atteindre ainsi toutes les parties de la cale. On utilise largement les chargeurs de bateau dans beaucoup de pays. 2, record 14, French, - chargeur%20de%20navire

When molecules A and B react to give a product A-B, the reaction passes through a transition state A-B in which chemical bonds are being made and broken. The transition state is the most unstable species on the reaction pathway, and catalysis is achieved by stabilizing this state. 1, record 17, English, - transition%20state

Une réaction chimique telle que A-> P se produit lorsqu'une certaine proportion de la population des molécules A possède à un certain moment suffisamment d’énergie pour atteindre un état activé, appelé état de transition, où la probabilité de créer ou de détruire une liaison chimique pour former le produit P est très grande. Cet état de transition et au sommet de la barrière énergétique séparant les réactifs des produits. La vitesse d’une réaction chimique déterminée est proportionnelle à la concentration des molécules ayant atteint cet état de transition. 1, record 17, French, - %C3%A9tat%20de%20transition
