Solar phenomenaSolar phenomena are natural phenomena which occur within the atmosphere of the Sun. These phenomena take many forms, including solar wind, radio wave flux, solar flares, coronal mass ejections, coronal heating and sunspots. These phenomena are believed to be generated by a helical dynamo, located near the center of the Sun's mass, which generates strong magnetic fields, as well as a chaotic dynamo, located near the surface, which generates smaller magnetic field fluctuations.
VagueUne vague () est une déformation de la surface d'une masse d'eau le plus souvent sous l'effet du vent. À l'interface des deux fluides principaux de la Terre, le vent crée des vagues sur les océans, mers et lacs. Ces mouvements irréguliers se dispersent à la surface de l'eau et sont collectivement appelés état de la mer. D'autres phénomènes, moins fréquents, sont aussi la source de vagues. Ainsi, les séismes majeurs, éruptions volcaniques ou chutes de météorites créent également des vagues appelées tsunamis ou raz-de-marée.
Centimetre or millimetre of waterA centimetre or millimetre of water (US spelling centimeter or millimeter of water) are less commonly used measures of pressure based on the pressure head of water. A centimetre of water (US spelling centimeter of water) is a unit of pressure. It may be defined as the pressure exerted by a column of water of 1 cm in height at 4 °C (temperature of maximum density) at the standard acceleration of gravity, so that 1 cmH2O (4°C) = 999.9720 kg/m3 × 9.80665 m/s2 × 1 cm = 98.063754138 Pa ≈ 98.
