The buildings' heating and air patterns will adjust as weather changes.
The pattern is common when La Nina -- the cooler than normal waters in the Eastern Equatorial Pacific -- influences upper air patterns across the southern United States.
CNN: U.S. pledges help for Texas farmers hit by record drought
Some experts believe that you also get circulating air patterns in the atmosphere above the boundary between the water and the land and this can initiate thunderstorms and showers.
Air circulation patterns aboard standard commercial aircraft are side-to-side (laminar), with air entering the cabin from overhead, circulating across the aircraft and exiting the cabin near the floor.
They look at a forest or a desert and they track rainfall patterns, or air and soil temperatures, what plants grow there and who eats what.
Analysis tools, when combined with targeted screening of air cargo, help detect suspicious shipment patterns.
FORBES: Air Cargo Security: Time For The World To Take New Measures
This is no comfort as the forecasts continue to be grim, but it is a measure of the complexity of the physics involved - how air moves in waves, why certain patterns form - that more than 60 years later scientists are still wrestling with the question of how the jet stream operates and what shapes it.
Thailand's Phang Nga Bay resembles an alien seascape, where towering limestone cliffs in improbable shapes carve the view into unfamiliar patterns of land, sea and air.
We see this ability to understand patterns by instinct everywhere: artists, air traffic controllers, trading-floor brokers, criminologists, jazz musicians, etc.
FORBES: Working In The Flow Challenges Our Collaborative and Leadership Skills
This lowers air pressures which, in turn, changes wind patterns.
FORBES: 2011 Forecast: World Outperforms U.S., Europe Scuttles
At the University of Sydney, in Australia, Steve Manos used an evolutionary algorithm to come up with novel patterns in a type of optical fibre that has air holes shot through its length.
