Sentences with phrase «less snow heat»

Not exact matches

Another way to personalize this versatile recipe is to change up the vegetables used (zucchini instead of broccoli, or green peas instead of snow peas, for example) and you can adjust the seasoning as well, adding more red pepper flakes (or a drizzle or sriracha) for more heat, or using more or less curry powder to taste.

It has been known for quite some time that red pigmented snow algae blooming on icy surfaces darken the surface which in turn leads to less albedo and a higher uptake of heat.

«What the situation suggests for Greenland ice melt summer 2016 is some thermal erosion of the «cold content» of the snow overlying the ice sheet, meaning less heat needed to «ripen'the snow to the melting point,» Box said.

These wildfires release soot into the atmosphere, which accelerates the rate of melting of glaciers, snow and ice it lands upon, which can lead to less reflectivity, meaning more of the sun's heat is absorbed, leading to more global warming, which leads to even more wildfires, not to mention greater sea level rise, which is already threatening coastal areas around the world.

Snow and ice reflect heat very effectively (which is why patches of snow survive long after temperatures rise above freezing), so if warming leads to less snow, then more heat will be absorbed, which warms the planet furtSnow and ice reflect heat very effectively (which is why patches of snow survive long after temperatures rise above freezing), so if warming leads to less snow, then more heat will be absorbed, which warms the planet furtsnow survive long after temperatures rise above freezing), so if warming leads to less snow, then more heat will be absorbed, which warms the planet furtsnow, then more heat will be absorbed, which warms the planet further.

The water vapor cooled the Earth, the snow cooled the atmosphere with resulting increase in surface albedo which does reflect radiative heat, meaning the Earth gets less warm, not colder because of it.

But with several factors combining to increase temperatures in Greenland and reduce the reflectivity of the snow and ice cover, the ice sheet is becoming less efficient at reflecting that heat energy, and as a consequence melt seasons are becoming more severe.

The darkness of land and water compared with the reflectiveness of snow and ice means that when the latter melt to reveal the former, the area exposed absorbs more heat from the sun and reflects less of it back into space.

They also make snow less white, thereby reducing its effectiveness in radiating the sun's heat back into space.

The reason, Werner said, is because the loss of snow and ice makes the earth's surface less reflective, meaning solar radiation — or heat — is absorbed in greater amounts by the exposed dark ocean or tundra.

These stem from a diversity of site - specific conditions, including, but not limited to: local vegetation; presence of building structures and contributions made by such structures involving energy use, heating and air conditioning, etc; exposure to winds, the wind velocities determined by climatic factors and also whether certain wind directions are more favored than others by terrain or the presence or absence thereof to bodies of water; proximity to grass, asphalt, concrete or other material surfaces; the physical conditions of the CRS itself which include: the exact location of the temperature sensors within it, the degree of unimpeded flow of external air through the CRS, the character of the paint used; the exact height of the instrument above the external surface (noting that when the ground is covered by 3 feet of snow, the temperature instrument is about 60 % closer to, or less than 2 feet, above an excellent radiating surface, much closer than it would be under snow - free conditions).

Dry conditions and low snow packs lead to an early start to the fire season with Alberta's Fort McMurray fires capturing the world's attention in spring but then the fire season quieted, copious summer rains fell, and record heat became less noticeable.

· Also, ocean acidity should rise, making it more difficult for corals and other animals to make shells; hurricanes should become stronger; heat waves and heavy rain should be more frequent; there will be less ice and snow; and there should be more rain away from the equator.

assuming what you say about skeptics changing topic as you describe is accurate, and at this point I do we are talking about data that is less than 200 years old, out of which extraordinary claims are made as to how that data relates to distant past and future trends tough sell assuming that all adjustments to the data are scientifically sound, It is very difficult for me to believe that measurements that have gone through so many iterations can be trusted to.0 and.00 in most other sciences, I doubt they would tough sell (the photo of the thermometer is downright funny) in terms of goal post moving I observe predicted heat being re-branded as «missing» a prediction of no snow re-branded as more snow a warming world re-branded to a «warm, cold, we don't know what to expect» world topped off with suggestions that one who thinks the above has some sort of psychological disorder extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence especially when you are teaching children that their world is endangered

With less snow and ice to reflect the sun's rays and with more exposed ocean to absorb heat, a vicious cycle leads to even warmer temperatures.

The flaw in the 3C ECS over land, webby, is that where it's happening it's a welcome change resulting in longer growing seasons, less snow to shovel, and less heating fuel needed in the winter.

Forcing from black carbon deposited on snow is a partial exception to this rule; it is concentrated at high latitudes, from which heat is less readily transported elsewhere.

Residents of cities like Boston will suffer fewer colds, experience fewer heart attacks from shoveling snow, and spend less on heating, snowplowing and road salting.

Add the snap peas, minced garlic, rice wine or sake and toss lightly over high heat about 1 1/2 minutes, until the peas are just tender (snow peas will take slightly less time).

It should also be possible to get less snow with the same amount of precipitation if e.g. the day - night variation increases, in that snow melts during the heat of the day and even if the cold of the night averages out the temperature, the added cold can not remake the lost snow.
