Ten years ago the federal government asked David Phillips, senior climatologist at Environment Canada, to come up with a reliable comparison of weather extremes across the country. He took into account such factors as extreme cold, the frequency of blowing snow and freezing rain, as well as hours of daylight. He also looked at warm weather nasties such as extreme heat, humidity and thunderstorms. The result of all this work was the Climate Severity Index. 5, record 1, English, - Climate%20Severity%20Index

The constitutional tendency of the whole or a part of a molecule to penetrate into, or remain within, a phase. It is characterized, in terms of the functional groups in the molecule, the fact that the introduction of such groups in the molecules gives rise to decreases in the change of the chemical potential when the molecules of the substance pass from a gaseous ideal state to the phase under consideration. [Definition standardized by ISO.] 1, record 3, English, - endophilicity
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The value of the decrease in the change in chemical potential, which results from the introduction of the functional group, is a function of concentration and temperature.

Tendance constitutionnelle de tout ou partie d'une molécule à pénétrer ou à rester dans une phase. Elle se caractérise, par rapport aux groupements fonctionnels de la molécule, par le fait que l'introduction de tels groupements dans les molécules contribue à une différence de variation en diminution du potentiel chimique, lorsque les molécules du produit passent de l'état gazeux idéal en la phase considérée.
