The North American monsoon , variously known as the Southwest monsoon , the Mexican monsoon , the New Mexican monsoon , or the Arizona monsoon , is a pattern of pronounced increase in thunderstorms and rainfall over large areas of the southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico , typically occurring between July and mid September . During the monsoon , thunderstorms are fueled by daytime heating and build up during the late afternoon - early evening . Typically , these storms dissipate by late night , and the next day starts out fair , with the cycle repeating daily . The monsoon typically loses its energy by mid-September when drier and cooler conditions are reestablished over the region . Geographically , the North American monsoon precipitation region is centered over the Sierra Madre Occidental in the Mexican states of Sinaloa , Durango , Sonora and Chihuahua .

Young 's modulus , also known as the elastic modulus , is a measure of the stiffness of a solid material . It is a mechanical property of linear elastic solid materials . It defines the relationship between stress ( force per unit area ) and strain ( proportional deformation ) in a material . Young 's modulus is named after the 19th - century British scientist Thomas Young . However , the concept was developed in 1727 by Leonhard Euler , and the first experiments that used the concept of Young 's modulus in its current form were performed by the Italian scientist Giordano Riccati in 1782 , pre-dating Young 's work by 25 years . The term modulus is the diminutive of the Latin term modus which means measure .

Diagenesis ( / ˌdaɪəˈdʒɛnɪsɪs / ) is the change of sediments or existing sedimentary rocks into a different sedimentary rock during and after rock formation ( lithification ) , at temperatures and pressures less than that required for the formation of metamorphic rocks . It does not include changes from weathering . It is any chemical , physical , or biological change undergone by a sediment after its initial deposition , after its lithification . This process excludes surface alteration ( weathering ) and metamorphism . These changes happen at relatively low temperatures and pressures and result in changes to the rock 's original mineralogy and texture . There is no sharp boundary between diagenesis and metamorphism , but the latter occurs at higher temperatures and pressures . Hydrothermal solutions , meteoric groundwater , porosity , permeability , solubility , and time are all influential factors .

Taxonomy ( from Ancient Greek τάξις ( taxis ) , meaning ' arrangement ' , and - νομία ( - nomia ) , meaning ' method ' ) is the science of defining and naming groups of biological organisms on the basis of shared characteristics . Organisms are grouped together into taxa ( singular : taxon ) and these groups are given a taxonomic rank ; groups of a given rank can be aggregated to form a super group of higher rank , thus creating a taxonomic hierarchy . The principal ranks in modern use are kingdom , phylum , class , order , family , genus and species . The Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus is regarded as the father of taxonomy , as he developed a system known as Linnaean taxonomy for categorization of organisms and binomial nomenclature for naming organisms .

In geology or geography , the word `` quadrangle '' usually refers to a United States Geological Survey ( USGS ) 7.5 - minute quadrangle map , which are usually named after a local physiographic feature . The shorthand `` quad '' is also used , especially with the name of the map ; for example , `` the Ranger Creek , Texas quad map '' . These maps are one - quarter of the older 15 - minute series . On a quadrangle map , the north and south limits of the quadrangle are not straight lines , but are actually curved to match Earth 's lines of latitude on the standard projection . The east and west limits are usually not parallel as they match Earth 's lines of longitude . In the United States , a 7.5 minute quadrangle map covers an area of 49 to 70 square miles ( 130 to 180 km ) .

The most influential production model is Hubbert peak theory , first proposed in the 1950s . As of 2014 , it is not widely questioned that oil production will be in decline after 2050 . The effect of peak oil on the world economy remains controversial .

The sense of balance or equilibrioception is one of the physiological senses related to balance . It helps prevent humans and animals from falling over when standing or moving . Balance is the result of a number of body systems working together : the eyes ( visual system ) , ears ( vestibular system ) and the body 's sense of where it is in space ( proprioception ) ideally need to be intact . The vestibular system , the region of the inner ear where three semicircular canals converge , works with the visual system to keep objects in focus when the head is moving . This is called the vestibulo - ocular reflex ( VOR ) . The balance system works with the visual and skeletal systems ( the muscles and joints and their sensors ) to maintain orientation or balance . Visual signals sent to the brain about the body 's position in relation to its surroundings are processed by the brain and compared to information from the vestibular , visual and skeletal systems .

By far the most performed and recorded of Dukas 's works , its notable appearance in the Walt Disney 1940 animated film Fantasia has led to the piece becoming widely known to audiences outside the classical concert hall .

Time - lapse photography is a technique whereby the frequency at which film frames are captured ( the frame rate ) is much lower than that used to view the sequence . When played at normal speed , time appears to be moving faster and thus lapsing . For example , an image of a scene may be captured once every second , then played back at 30 frames per second ; the result is an apparent 30 times speed increase . In a similar manner , film can also be played at a much lower rate than it was captured at , slowing down fast action , as slow motion or high - speed photography .

In biology , cell theory is the historic scientific theory , now universally accepted , that living organisms are made up of cells . Cells are the basic unit of structure in all organisms and also the basic unit of reproduction . With continual improvements made to microscopes over time , magnification technology advanced enough to discover cells in the 17th century . This discovery is largely attributed to Robert Hooke , and began the scientific study of cells , also known as cell biology . Over a century later , many debates about cells began amongst scientists . Most of these debates involved the nature of cellular regeneration , and the idea of cells as a fundamental unit of life . Cell theory was eventually formulated in 1839 . This is usually credited to Matthias Schleiden and Theodor Schwann . However , many other scientists like Rudolf Virchow contributed to the theory .

The committees of correspondence were shadow governments organized by the Patriot leaders of the Thirteen Colonies on the eve of the American Revolution . They coordinated responses to England and shared their plans ; by 1773 they had emerged as shadow governments , superseding the colonial legislature and royal officials . The Maryland Committee of Correspondence was instrumental in setting up the First Continental Congress , which met in Philadelphia . These served an important role in the Revolution , by disseminating the colonial interpretation of British actions between the colonies and to foreign governments . The committees of correspondence rallied opposition on common causes and established plans for collective action , and so the group of committees was the beginning of what later became a formal political union among the colonies .

The Mid-Atlantic Ridge ( MAR ) is a mid-ocean ridge , a divergent tectonic plate or constructive plate boundary located along the floor of the Atlantic Ocean , and part of the longest mountain range in the world . In the North Atlantic it separates the Eurasian and North American plates , and in the South Atlantic it separates the African and South American plates . The ridge extends from a junction with the Gakkel Ridge ( Mid-Arctic Ridge ) northeast of Greenland southward to the Bouvet Triple Junction in the South Atlantic . Although the Mid-Atlantic Ridge is mostly an underwater feature , portions of it have enough elevation to extend above sea level . The section of the ridge that includes Iceland is known as the Reykjanes Ridge . The ridge has an average spreading rate of about 2.5 centimetres ( 0.98 in ) per year .

The last glacial period , popularly known as the Ice Age , was the most recent glacial period , which occurred from c. 110,000 -- c. 11,700 years ago . This most recent glacial period is part of a larger pattern of glacial and interglacial periods known as the Quaternary glaciation ( c. 2,588,000 years ago to present ) . From this point of view , scientists consider this `` ice age '' to be merely the latest glaciation event in a much larger ice age , one that dates back over two million years and is still ongoing .

Classical conditioning ( also known as Pavlovian or respondent conditioning ) refers to a learning procedure in which a biologically potent stimulus ( e.g. food ) is paired with a previously neutral stimulus ( e.g. a bell ) . It also refers to the learning process that results from this pairing , through which the neutral stimulus comes to elicit a response ( e.g. salivation ) that is usually similar to the one elicited by the potent stimulus . These basic facts , which require many qualifications ( see below ) , were first studied in detail by Ivan Pavlov through experiments with dogs . Together with operant conditioning , classical conditioning became the foundation of behaviorism , a school of psychology which was dominant in the mid-20th century and is still an important influence on the practice of psychological therapy and the study of animal behavior . Classical conditioning is a basic learning process , and its neural substrates are now beginning to be understood .
