Linear Systems | Description | Associated Weather | Period | |
Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) | Result of the northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere tradewind convergence | Widespread cloudiness, occasional thunder-storms, precipitation, moderate to strong surface winds | Migratory, depending on the time of the year | |
Tail-end of Cold Front | Front boundary of 2 air masses, found in mid-latitudes | Rainfall and cloudiness over affected areas | Northern portion of the country during the Northern Hemisphere winter season | |
Easterly Waves | Wavelike perturbations embedded in the easterly current | cloudiness and precipitation in eastern coastal portions | More frequent during the transition period |

The Tail-end of a Cold Front
The tail-end of a cold front is affecting Visayas and Mindanao while the northeast monsoon Ls affecting Luzon.We were affected by series of rains in the country. Which contribute to damage each life in the community. The economy of ours is affected. The development of the plants in the fields and even the business of simple people. It is all quit alarming. This phenomenon gave us different problems. And how I wish we can all solve this with the help and grace of God. Let us all do our part not only for ourselves but for everyone.
Intertropical Convergence Zone
The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), known by sailors as The Doldrums, is the area encircling the earth near the equator where winds originating in the northern and southern hemispheres come together.The ITCZ appears as a band of clouds, usually thunderstorms, that circle the globe near the equator. In the Northern Hemisphere, the trade winds move in a southwestern direction from the northeast, while in the Southern Hemisphere, they move northwestward from the southeast. When the ITCZ is positioned north or south of the equator, these directions change according to the Coriolis effect imparted by the rotation of the earth.
We are now experiencing the change in our climate. Therefore, it may have a fair tomorrow nor a good one. ITCZ brings rain in the Earth because it brought the cloudiness, thunderstorms nor precipitates rain.On or near the equator, where average solar radiation is greatest, air is warmed at the surface and rises. This creates a band of low air pressure, centered on the equator. This rising air comprises one segment of a circulation pattern called the Hadley Cell. The rising air is replaced by the Trade winds approaching the equator from north and south. As the trade winds meet near the equator, surface convergence and uplift take place.

Montereal Protocol
The Montreal Protocol on Substances That Deplete the Ozone Layer (a protocol to the Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer) is an international treaty designed to protect the ozone layer by phasing out the production of numerous substances believed to be responsible for ozone depletion.
Nowadays, there is almost no fresh air. We’re very lucky here in the province than those whose in the crowded cities. Crowded with people, vehicles, factories and many technologies that releases harmful chemicals and smokes. Those are some of the factors which causes in what we called air pollution. Then, damaging the ozone layer.
So it is not surprising that a lot of people what to solve the problem. That’s why Montereal Protocol is made. It is an international treaty to limit ozone depleting substances. By this, it can help all of us. Improve the health status of many Filipinos.
At the end of the day, let us all hope that everything follows. Let us all help in protecting the ozone layer which protects the Earth which is our beloved home…Like what Montreal Protocol started and belive to.
El Nino and La Nina Phenomenon
La Niña The name La Niña originates from Spanish, meaning "the girl," analogous to El Niño meaning "the boy."La Niña, sometimes informally called "anti-El Niño.
The El Niño phenomenon is an abnormal weather pattern caused by the warming of the Pacific Ocean. It is characterized by extreme climatic changes - world-warming. El Niño occurs every two to seven years. El Niño is Spanish for "the boy" and refers to the Christ child, because periodic warming in the Pacific near South America is usually noticed around Christmas. "La Niña," on the other hand, is Spanish for "the girl."

I hate phenomenon. It brings only bad things. Nothing but bad.I sometimes ask myself why those occur. But maybe it’s a natural thing. Eventhough no one likes it because of it’s destruction it will still happen.El Nino which bring too much heat. Drought. It damaged crops. Even different properties including buildings and houses. It also causes food shortage because of irrigation of crops are delayed. No water. No food.While La Nina phenomenon is opposite. Floods. But almost have the same effects. It also damaged things as what El Nino can do. It causes landslides in different places because of excessive rain.
Both phenomenon makes life of people in danger. I just hope and pray that neither of the two won’t happen. Let’s all belive in God. So we can all have a better life.
Climate change is a significant and lasting change in the statistical distribution ofweather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It may be a change in average weather conditions or the distribution of events around that average.Climate change may be limited to a specific region or may occur across the whole Earth.
Everything changes . A fact that point out different things. Maybe even our climate,right? As we experience it today it changes our everyday living. But unfortunately, it changes not in positive way but into negative side. It damages life. It may affect an ordinary people or even popular ones. For example, it’s summer then it always rain. It will affect business, schedule of events, and a lot more.But this is all our fault. We didn’t take care of our Mother Earth. We throw garbages, used vehicles, allow the appliances with CFC’s and even burning garbages that releases harmful chemicals and many more. Which causes the destruction of the ozone layer that protect us.
I wish I can also change this. But it’s not too late we can start with ourselves. Let us love our environment. Love to be an eco-friendly. Start the change.

Busy Sched! :
I'm sooo tired. Unit tests, projects, and requirements are starting. I wish I can stop this up to next week. I'm so stressed at the same time. Because of none stop I.P. I hope I can have the solution. And finally, can move on for the I.P.
Happy birthday to ma'am Irene. But I didn't greet her anyway. Another week have passed at least, only one more to go and I'll die. because it will be our periodical test and everything.
Okay I need to rest. Bye HAHAHA. See you next week. God bless and take care everyone!
