Book Description
Solar energy data at ground level are important for a wide range of applications in meteorology, engineering, agricultural sciences (particularly for soil physics, agricultural hydrology, crop modeling and estimating crop evapotranspiration), as well as in the health sector and in research in many fields of the natural sciences. The solar energy reaching the Earth upper atmosphere is a quantity rather constant in time. However, the radiation reaching some point on Earth surface is random in nature, due to the gases, clouds and dust within the atmosphere, which absorb and/or scatter radiation at different wavelengths. Climate change is becoming more and more evident to everybody and there is an urgent need for action. The climate of Egypt is generally moderate ranging from semiarid to extremely arid conditions with distinguished features of arid zones. There are three distinguished types of climate in Egypt including the desert climate (in the inland areas), the Mediterranean climate (in the northern coastal areas) and the climate of the coast of the Red Sea. Solar energy reduces greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere because it harnesses the power of sun energy with little to no gases being released. The amount of carbon dioxide released to the atmosphere is way less from solar energy compared to coal plants when seeking to produce the same amount of KWh per year. The benefits of solar power to the environment include the provision of an inexhaustible supply of energy from the sun. Solar power captures the sun’s energy with no harm to the environment.
Hidden History of Alexandria,
Author: Michael Lee PopePublisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 1614232709

Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
This groundbreaking history uncovers a long-forgotten period in the 19th century when Alexandria left the commonwealth of Virginia and became incorporated into the fledgling District of Columbia. It was an experiment that failed after half a century of neglect and a growing animosity between North and South. However, it was a fascinating time when cannon were dragged onto city streets for political rallies, candidates plied their voters with liquor and devastating fires ravaged the city.

Philo's Alexandria
Author: Dorothy I. SlyPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134681100
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
First-century Alexandria vied with Rome to be the greatest city of the Roman empire. More than half a million people lived in its cosmopolitan four square miles. It was a major centre for international trade and shipping. Little remains of Alexandria's golden age. Few papyrus records of the city survive. Archaeologists' attempts to reveal its past have been frustrated by years of subsidence, earthquakes and continuous demolition and rebuilding. Our main guide to the city is Philo, an Alexandrian Jew, who, sometimes inadvertantly, incorporated information about his home city into his copious religious writings. In this compelling new study, Dorothy I. Sly searches through Philo's treatises for information about Alexandria. By recognising his shortcomings and prejudices, and questioning his judgements, she builds up an authentic picture of life in the first century.
