Improved competencies on atmospheric flow, together with the guidelines and best practices for the use of data, promises to become a key tool with reduced overall uncertainties for determining wind conditions.
Experiments carried out in the OU Mars Simulation Chamber — specialised equipment, which is able to simulate the atmospheric conditions on Mars — reveal that Mars» thin atmosphere (about 7 mbar — compared to 1,000 mbar on Earth) combined with periods of relatively warm surface temperatures causes water flowing on the surface to violently boil.
A study published this year by Bradley Udall, senior water and climate research scientist with the Colorado Water Institute at Colorado State University, and Jonathan Overpeck, professor of hydrology and atmospheric sciences at the University of Arizona, found that during the drought years of 2000 - 2014, the river surrendered a third of its flow because of higher temperatures in the upper basin.

For example, John Sterman has a simple demonstration of stocks and flows in an atmospheric system, with his bathtub model of greenhouse gas emissions and concentrations.
Conversely, due to well - researched upper - atmospheric flow (e.g. vertical shear) configurations favorable to Atlantic hurricane development and intensification, La Nina falls tend to favor very active seasons in the Atlantic (El Nino years are the converse, with must less activity, as forecast by Gray and NOAA for 2009).
The annular modes describe variability in the «anomalous» atmospheric flow, that is, variability not associated with the seasonal cycle.

Your claim proven as a theorem now means basically (with some radiative cooling at the top for the return flow) that it does not need confirmation by numerical modelling, but rather, application, to see how it plays out in real atmospheric problems.
The study argues that ice sheets in contact with the ocean, including the many West Antarctic glaciers that end in floating ice shelves, «are vulnerable to non-linear disintegration» due to a combination of atmospheric warming and major shifts in ocean circulation that would result from a surge in freshwater flowing into the ocean in the North Atlantic (from Greenland), and Southern Ocean (from Antarctica).
