One other factor here is increased evaporation at the equator which has increased the salanity of tropical waters along with increased percipitation at the poles seems to be making the thermohaline system move faster which in turn carries move heat to the poles and hence increases polar ice melting and hence possibly a greater chance of slowdown of the thermohaline system.

While it is true that infrared is absorbed in a thin skin at the top of the water, even if the water were completely quiescent this would still lead to the skin layer heating up until emission (plus evaporation and all the other terms we include in the surface budget) equalled the energy input.

However, with me at least, a bit part of the deal is the increased acidity reducing fish harvests, water shortages, droughts severely reducing crops (sure — more rain, but more over the ocean, less on land — and with greater evaporation before the water trickles to a dry stream bed), increased heat reducing rice production and other heat sensative crops, the heat waves, etc..

I haven't read the papers and don't know what is happening with salinity in the rest of the Atlantic, but looking at your map it occurred to me that if there was increased freshwater in the Northern Ocean due to ice melting and increase salinity in the tropical Atlantic due to increased evaporation, couldn't a mixing effect at the southern edge of the Northern ocean as tropical water is circulated north show similar results?

This number is based on the commonly presented estimate that 0.25 % of the mass of the atmosphere is water vapor, heat of evaporation of water, and specific heat of air at constant pressure.

As you say «Simples» Think of the ocean as an open pot of warm water with constant heat input (TSI) at a level where water is held at constant temperature by evaporation and internal convection.

Wramneby et al (2010) explored the regional interaction between climate and vegetation response using a RCM set - up, and highlighted the importance of this interaction for assessing the mean temperature response particularly at high latitudes (due to the role of vegetation in snow covered areas) and in water limited evaporation regimes (due to the role of vegetation in controlling surface evaporative cooling).

Here how it works: Think of the ocean as an open pot of warm water with constant heat input (TSI) at a level where water is held at constant temperature by evaporation and internal convection.

This isn't to argue the point that most of the IR — around a third of the incoming power — is absorbed at the surface and largely goes into latent heat of evaporation rather than actual heating of the water.

The advantage of drip irrigation is that it applies water very slowly at a rate that the plants can use, losing little to evaporation.

The resulting reduction in radiative energy at Earth's surface may have attenuated evaporation and its energy equivalent, the latent heat flux (LH), leading to a slowdown of the water cycle.

At climateological time scales, the amount of readily available surface water is basically mean annual precipitation minus mean annual evaporation / transpiration.

It is not «conduction» but exchange of radiation; if you keep your hands parallel at a distance of some cm the right hand does not (radiatively) «warm» the left hand or vice versa albeit at 33 °C skin temperature they exchange some hundreds of W / m ² (about 500 W / m ²) The solar radiation reaching the surface (for 71 % of the surface, the oceans) is lost by evaporation (or evapotranspiration of the vegetation), plus some convection (20 W / ²) and some radiation reaching the cosmos directly through the window 8µm to 12 µm (about 20 W / m ² «global» average); only the radiative heat flow surface to air (absorbed by the air) is negligible (plus or minus); the non radiative (latent heat, sensible heat) are transferred for surface to air and compensate for a part of the heat lost to the cosmos by the upper layer of the water vapour displayed on figure 6 - C.

At the surface, evaporation takes energy from the water surface or from the surface on land and reduces the density of the air parcel above so that the air parcel becomes lighter and can rise.

At the surface, increased pressure from injecting water vapour into a parcel of air via evaporation causes the parcel to rise so that surface pressure below it falls.

«With global temperatures warmer now than they were at the beginning of the last century, that means our temperatures are warmer too, which increases the rate of evaporation and increases the demands on water, increases the stress on the water supply, and also leaves us more susceptible to breaking the high - temperature record, which we've been doing lately,» Nielsen - Gammon said.

It, too has significant transverse structure and is a global transporter of heat as complex currents move water around based on its temperature, salinity / density, wind direction at the surface, heat sources at depth, evaporation, the coriolis force, the shape of the ocean bottom, and freshwater contributions from e.g. rivers and melting ice.

A large portion of the solar heat at the heat Equator is used for evaporation, changing the water from liquid to gas (water vapor).

At the same time, sea levels rise, creating more water surface area for more evaporation of water that becomes fresh water for... more vegetation.

If there were no evaporation then there would simply be a smooth temperature gradient to the topmost molecules of the water surface with a temperature discontinuity at the surface where the water and air interface is located.

The water vapor pressure is below the saturation value of 101325 Pa at 373.15 K (that isn't quite right either, but close enough) so there will be net evaporation of water from the surface as it warms from absorption of radiation and conduction from the water vapor.

If our idealized reservoir is «U» - shaped (not «V» - shaped) then the surface area remains constant, irrespective of the water level, and so the evaporation occurs at a constant (zero - order flux) vs. (dry) temperature.

But at nighttime the most of energy of evaporation is coming from the heat stored in water below the surface and the surface skin layer itself, asd I understand it.

Basically I see this as the result of convection (from the DSR warmed water below) which increases the temperature up to the last mm or so and then the cooling above that is as a result of energy loss at the surface and additional energy loss from evaporation which pushes the temperature down.

The oceans control the background rate of energy flow from ocean to air via The Hot Water Bottle Effect and it is the energy flow from ocean to air (supplemented to a miniscule extent by the greenhouse effect) that drives the rate of evaporation by creating varying temperature differentials between sea surface and air at the surface.

The size of the temperature differential between air and water combined with the rate of movement of both air and water within the region of interaction dictates the rate of evaporation and the density and pressure differential dictates the direction of energy flow which on Earth is always continuous at variable rates from water to air.

The rate of evaporation always increases in proportion to the supply of extra energy to water molecules at the surface or to molecules of air that are in contact with the water surface so that no warming of the ocean by the air can occur.

To that you answer if the temperature ever starts to rise, due to say volcanic heat, or upwelling to water's surface, the heat is immediately removed by the power of evaporation as infrared - resonant gases chug heat straight up through the atmospheric mix to belch it out radiatively at higher altitude; while simultaneously dragging other, non-infrared resonant gases upward with them, to also dump THEIR heat radiatively, from a higher position than they would have, had the refrigerative cycle not taken place.

Roof pond: A solar energy collection device consisting of containers of water located on a roof that absorb solar energy during the day so that the heat can be used at night or that cools a building by evaporation at night.

Answer obvious, and pertains only to anvils in frigid baths (or similar concepts), but it is completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand: it has NO relationship to atmospheric physics, due to «other factors,» such as convection and evaporation / condensation of water.

atmospheric absorption by CO2 and water vapor increases, reducing the solar heating at the surface, and surface evaporation increases faster with temperature than the transfer of sensible heat (due to the Clausius - Clapeyron relation), both of which tend to reduce the diurnal cycle.
