Sentences with phrase «causing conduction»

Waxy debris occluding the ear canal, tympanic membrane, and severe ear infections are all examples of diseases causing conduction deafness.

Temperature tends to respond so that, depending on optical properties, LW emission will tend to reduce the vertical differential heating by cooling warmer parts more than cooler parts (for the surface and atmosphere); also (not significant within the atmosphere and ocean in general, but significant at the interface betwen the surface and the air, and also significant (in part due to the small heat fluxes involved, viscosity in the crust and somewhat in the mantle (where there are thick boundary layers with superadiabatic lapse rates) and thermal conductivity of the core) in parts of the Earth's interior) temperature changes will cause conduction / diffusion of heat that partly balances the differential heating.

Conduction deafness is caused by abnormalities of the pinna (external ear), ear canal, tympanic membrane (eardrum), auditory ossicles or middle ear.

Within the troposphere and between that and the surface, convection (and at the surface, conduction and molecular mass diffusion) are also important — these also respond to changes in temperature so that an imbalance causes a temperature change that causes the imbalance to decay.

But for an external solar forcing, the increase in incoming energy, causes increased convection, conduction and radiation, which results in increased energy out which results in a new higher energy - in equals energy - out.

Thus if you change the air constituents (ie add GHGs) then the energy transported by radiative effects will increase, but the increase in GHG residence time will cause a feedback and decrease in conduction etc residence time (ie hotter air rising faster).

One possible way to fix this model failure is to account for the increased vertical flow of convection and conduction caused by the radiative GHG induced global warming, which apparently was, I assume, not adequately included in the GCMs.

Forcing by heat conduction will certainly cause something to warm up.if there is a thermal gradient (potential difference) but only if the thing being warmed up is at the cooler end of the gradient in terms of radiation or heat (the «positive flow of energy»).

Because of the heating of the ocean depths by the sunlight, which penetrates a number of meters, the depths are warmer than the surface skin, because radiation, evaporation and conduction cause the surface skin to lose heat.

When insulation mixed into a bath that is conduction chilling a sun - warmed rock, causes less and less light to reach the rock, instruments can not detect and depict, more light reaching and warming it, with every percent less reaching and warming it.

If, prior to the isothermal state a mechanism causes stratification, either warmer at the bottom maintained by gravity and a dry adiabatic lapse rate or warmer at the top maintained by buoyancy and poor thermal conduction downwards, it is a pretty convenient argument to rule out energy transfer because it is isothermal.

«Sensible» heat is that caused by conduction and convection.

Adiabatic uplift and descent does that job via uneven conduction from the surface causing density differentials which then give rise to the necessary convection.

If evaporation contributes only a portion of the cooling of that 1 mm layer (some or even most being attributable to conduction and radiation) then more evaporation would still cause even more cooling of that layer and would still be a mechanism for maintaining or increasing the energy flow to the air rather than decreasing it.

5) Firstly the upward energy gradient caused by evaporation at the ocean surface pulls energy up from the subskin faster than it can be delivered to the subskin by convection and conduction from the ocean bulk.

Most photons are absorbed lower down and cause molecules to evaporate indirectly by providing energy to the skin layer, which is then available to the evaporating molecules via convection and conduction.

Radiation my dear Ira is moving energy from one place to another — and back again — It may be a cause of «local warming — or cooling», but is no more a cause of «global warming» than is conduction, convection and advection.

So convection in the atmosphere is caused mainly by conduction at the surface, so they must have approximately the same magnetude.

So then my atmosphere is emitting a spectrum that carries no signature of the species that grabbed the energy in the first place; or it even could have been solar radiation caused or simply conduction from the ground or somewhere else.
