Sentences with phrase «associated with warming air»

«Projections of Antarctic SMB changes over the 21st century thus indicate a negative contribution to sea level because of the projected widespread increase in snowfall associated with warming air temperatures (Krinner et al., 2007; Uotila et al., 2007; Bracegirdle et al., 2008).

Likewise, general trends toward higher annual maximum daily rainfall are consistent with an overall rise in atmospheric moisture associated with warmer air (7 ⇓ — 9).

Not exact matches

And it finds that, while this winter's unusually strong Arctic Oscillation - which funnels cold northern air to the East Coast and pulls warm mid-latitude air up to the Arctic - is predicted as atmospheric carbon dioxide levels rise, seasonal temperature anomalies associated with it aren't enough to blunt long - term warming trends.

By vacuuming carbon dioxide out of the air — something the world may need to do in earnest one day, in order to avoid the worst - case scenarios associated with global warming — the plant has effectively put a cost ceiling on what it would take to de-carbonize any industry in the world.

This warm air rises, cools and the moisture it contains condenses at higher altitudes, feeding the typical spiraling clouds associated with hurricanes.

The new C - Class Cabrio will feature Mercedes» neck - warming Airscarf system, plus an optional Aircap system to help prevent ruffled hair and wind noise associated with the open - air experience.

The warming of the world ocean is associated with an increase in global surface air temperature, downward longwave radiation, and therefore net heat flux.

The internal gains assumptions for this case exclude those associated with occupancy — with a minimal heating system (such as air heating) you need to be able to keep the house warm when away on a winter holiday, because otherwise it will take too long to bring the house up to a comfortable temperature.

This climate change induced blocking pattern has also been associated with numerous warm air invasions of the Northern Hemisphere polar region, the most recent of which occurred yesterday.

At this location, frontal lifting associated with mid-latitude cyclones moves warm subtropical air over cold polar air producing clouds and precipitation.

And the very same jet stream configuration responsible for the southward plunging Arctic air mass chilling the eastern United States is associated further to the west with a «ridge» of high pressure that is pushing the warm, moist subtropical Pacific air masses that would normally deliver plentiful rainfall (and snowpack) to California well to the north.

Part of this effect has been associated with the prevailing west wind bringing in warmer air off the ocean.

Since warm air is being moved poleward at low altitudes, the wind flow is no longer associated with the direct heat engine of the Hadley cell.

The strong influence of natural variability on surface air temperatures is the reason that climate researchers regularly point out that any record shorter than around 20 - 30 years is not useful for detecting long - term trends associated with anthropogenic warming.

The potential energy associated with the positive buoyancy of your rising parcel must be enough to allow the warm dry air parcel to descend.

«And since it has long been known that the DTR has declined significantly over many parts of the world as mean global air temperature has risen over the past several decades (Easterling et al., 1997), it can be appreciated that the global warming with which this DTR decrease is associated (which is driven by the fact that global warming is predominantly caused by an increase in daily minimum temperature) has likely helped to significantly reduce the CHD mortality of the world's elderly people.»
