Sentences with phrase «changes in air temperature alone»

However, changes in the distribution of snowfall through the year, conceivably linked to increases in sea surface temperature, may have reduced the reflectivity of the glacier and played an even bigger role in forcing the retreat than changes in air temperature alone.

Not exact matches

The air conditioner can be set to automatic and left alone, or you can use one of seven buttons in the center of the dash to change temperature, fan speed or the direction of the air.
2) If minor changes in the air attempt to make the air temperature alone diverge from that equilibrium then the weather systems change to modify the energy flow and in due course restore the surface air temperature to match the sea surface temperature set by the oceans.
The observed changes in air temperature that we notice and measure occur during the process of equalisation and are fully explicable by that process alone.
All I contend is that sun and oceans together with the variable speed of the hydrological cycle assisted by the latitudinal movements of the air circulation systems and the vertical movement of the tropopause overwhelmingly provide the background trend and combine to prevent changes in the air alone changing the Earth's equilibrium temperature.
ii) Changes in the air alone can not affect the global equilibrium temperature because of oceanic dominance that always seeks to maintain sea surface and surface air equilibrium whatever the air tries to do.
