Sentences with phrase «standard atmosphere model»

I thought that in the adiabatic case (in order to mirror the atmosphere) there is nil radiative or conductive heat flow.That is the standard atmosphere model where conduction is very small compared with other energy transfers.

Ongoing radio observations (SMA, JCMT, VLA) of Sirius A are being used to set an observationally determined standard for stellar atmosphere modeling and debris disk studies around A stars, as well as to take the first step toward characterizing potential intrinsic uncertainty in stellar emission at these wavelengths.
Another highlight contributing to a feel - good atmosphere is the AIR - BALANCE package with active fragrancing, air ionisation and more efficient filtration than is available on the standard model.
[Response # 2: The standard for comparing responses across different models is to look at the radiative forcing at the top of the atmosphere — for 2xCO2 it is around 4 W / m2 (read the new National Academies report on this for a much more detailed discussion of the concept).
The US standard atmosphere is treated as being correct globally, and IMHO this is one reason that the models do not work for the tropical lapse rate.
The atmosphere warms first in the standard model and this is the cause of warming at the Earth's surface and in the oceans.
«Climate science» as it is used by warmists implies adherence to a set of beliefs: (1) Increasing greenhouse gas concentrations will warm the Earth's surface and atmosphere; (2) Human production of CO2 is producing significant increases in CO2 concentration; (3) The rate of rise of temperature in the 20th and 21st centuries is unprecedented compared to the rates of change of temperature in the previous two millennia and this can only be due to rising greenhouse gas concentrations; (4) The climate of the 19th century was ideal and may be taken as a standard to compare against any current climate; (5) global climate models, while still not perfect, are good enough to indicate that continued use of fossil fuels at projected rates in the 21st century will cause the CO2 concentration to rise to a high level by 2100 (possibly 700 to 900 ppm); (6) The global average temperature under this condition will rise more than 3 °C from the late 19th century ideal; (7) The negative impact on humanity of such a rise will be enormous; (8) The only alternative to such a disaster is to immediately and sharply reduce CO2 emissions (reducing emissions in 2050 by 80 % compared to today's rate) and continue further reductions after 2050; (9) Even with such draconian CO2 reductions, the CO2 concentration is likely to reach at least 450 to 500 ppm by 2100 resulting in significant damage to humanity; (10) Such reductions in CO2 emissions are technically feasible and economically affordable while providing adequate energy to a growing world population that is increasingly industrializing.
CMIP was established as a resource for climate modelers, providing a standard protocol for studying the output of coupled atmosphere - ocean general circulation models so that these models can be compared and validated.
RE: 6th Error -RCB- The standard for expertise in a climate related field [Expertise in Venus» atmosphere does NOT necessarily make one an expert on the effects of trace CO2 in Earth's atmosphere]- initially would have eliminated NASA - GISS Dir Jim Hansen whose expertise was on Venus» theorized run - a-way green - house effect — a model which he then applied to theorize CO2 caused green - house global - warming on Earth.
My guess is that he did this analysis by using the lapse rate of the US Standard Atmosphere as input to his model, which is itself the result of an idealized mathematical model.
As there are multiple periods in the geological record of tens of millions years in duration when CO2 levels were high and the planet was cold and when CO2 levels were low and the planet was warm, it appears there is a basic fundamental assumption in the model of atmospheric radiation that is incorrect or there is an omission of another mechanism from the standard models of atmosphere radiation.
In climate - speak, people often talk about «forcings» as a shorthand for the forcings in a standard coupled ocean - atmosphere model and refer mainly to their TOA radiative effect which is useful for comparing their effects.
Called ModelE, it provides the ability to simulate many different configurations of Earth System Models — including interactive atmospheric chemistry, aerosols, carbon cycle and other tracers, as well as the standard atmosphere, ocean, sea ice and land surface components.
Jacobson's models, published in the Journal of Geophysical Research — Atmospheres, concluded that, even with stringent U.S. and European standards, diesel vehicles could warm the climate more over 100 years than gasoline - powered cars as a result of the relatively higher black carbon content of diesel.
