Explosion | Any sudden and massive release of energy that is the product of a chemical reaction. |
| Lightning | A WeatherProcess which involves a significant release of electricity between two electrically charged regions. One or both regions are within the atmosphere in a &WaterCloud, with the second region sometimes occuring on the ground. [Wikipedia] At the moment, we are modeling electricity as flowing from one region to another. Another way to model it is that it is a change of electrical potential at all points on the path. It would be worth revisiting this term by a specialist in Physics. |
| RadiatingElectromagnetic | RadiatingElectromagnetic is the subclass of Radiating processes in which electromagnetic radiation is transmitted or absorbed. |
| RadiatingInfrared | Any instance of Radiating where the wavelengths are longer than those of visible light and shorter than those of radio emissions. |
| RadiatingNuclear | Releasing atomic energy, i.e. energy from a nuclear reaction. |
| RadiatingSound | The subclass of Radiating in which sound waves are given off or absorbed. Some examples include creaking, roaring, and whistling. |
| Reflecting | Any instance of Radiating where the radiated waves rebound from a surface, e.g. an echo of sound or a reflection of light. |
