Sentences with phrase «average flux»

The present study employs the weekly - and monthly - averaged fluxes at 1 ° x 1 ° resolution available during the study period March 1992?
Using an objective method, the multi-satellite wind vector, wind stress, latent and heat flux estimated over swaths are used to calculate weekly - and monthly averaged flux fields on 1 degree grid between 80 ° S and 80 ° N.
Although it is a reasonable simplification to think of the transfer of thermal energy in a conduction - like model - where flux is related to the temperature gradient using a turbulent transfer coefficient - it is quite possible to have time - averaged flux moving in the opposite direction to time - averaged temperature gradient.
It is obvious that the usst 76 is not good for any global average flux computation....
[Response: Here's a simple back - of - envelope consideration for the future: if the Greenland ice sheet melts completely over the next ~ 1,000 years (Jim Hansen argues in the current Climatic Change that the time scale could be centuries), this would contribute an average flux of ~ 0.1 Sv of freshwater to the surrounding ocean.
Absent emission, absorption, reflection, scattering, and refraction outside of a sphere with radius 1, and assuming steady state, the flux coming out of such a sphere is the same as the flux coming out of any closed surface enveloping that sphere; the area of a sphere is proportional the square of the radius, so the average flux per unit area going through successively larger spheres follows an inverse square law.
Call this value «A.» Or, we can convert the temperatures into fluxes right away and then find the average flux.
Alternatively, if we assume 50,000 years of hold - back and 500 years of release, we could expect an average flux of 900 Tg per year, a tripling of current man - made methane fluxes.
To get the average flux over time, you need to average the instaneous variations in (motion x heat content).
The «Quiet Sun» has the average Flux values at ~ 85 [lowest value is ~ 67]; this is a little short of 250 during a Sunspot peak.
