Sentences with phrase «convection increases in a warmer»

To explain this finding, the study also showed that while the amount of energy available for convection increases in a warmer and moister climate, the energy inhibiting convection also increases.

«Warm summers could weaken ocean circulation: Long - term observations reveal the influence of increased surface freshening on convection in the subpolar North Atlantic.»

«This effect could add up in future warm periods and thus weaken the convection — especially with regard to the rising temperatures and increased melting,» the oceanographer concludes.

«This effect could add up in future warm periods and thus weaken the convection - especially with regard to the rising temperatures and increased melting», the oceanographer concludes.

If convection and evaporation were not present, I could see the argument being made that a slight increase in Radiation having some warming effect, however convection and evaporation do exist within the Troposphere and the rate of cooling the two exhibit increases as surface temps increase.

Second even if we ignore convection (and assume all warming of the atmosphere is from below, ie no incoming solar radiation is absorbed in the atmosphere) it is not the case that the atmosphere temperatures will «pivot» around some fixed level (increasing below it and falling above it).

Consenquently, the associated SST pattern is slightly cooler in the deep convection upwelling regions of the Equitorial Pacific and the Indian Ocean, strongly cooler in the nearest deep convection source region of the South Atlantic near Africa and the Equator, warm over the bulk of the North Atlantic, strongly warmer where the gulf stream loses the largest portion of its heat near 50N 25W, and strongly cooler near 45N 45W, which turns out to be a back - eddy of the Gulf Stream with increased transport of cold water from the north whenever the Gulf Stream is running quickly.

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.

The point isn't a «perpetual increase in atmospheric pressure» — that's a misnomer — if you consider the MASS of the atmosphere that is continuously «pumped» from cold air to hot air to cold air again, high up in the atmosphere — that creates «potential energy» from the kinetic energy of the convection — adiabatic expansion of the atmosphere is the result — the adiabatic compression occurs on the return trip of the previously warmed (from radiative energy) air as it completes the «cycle» as it comes back down!

Increased penetrating convection to the upper troposphere and the intensified residual circulation in the tropical pper tropospher / lower stratosphere appear to be the most robust of these results, with a magnitude that depends upon the degree of tropical warming.

This shift is caused by global climatic warming that leads to higher energy in the general circulation: The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ)-- known more commonly as monsoon — increases in strength due to increased convection and convergence.

Do you deny that increasing the mass, by coupling to sub-surface material by conduction, or a (transparent) atmosphere by convection, would reduce the rate of change of temperature, both during the cooling phase, and in the warming phase when the illumination is switched on again?

Take a look at Trenberth and Smith The basic idea is that increased moist convection lifts a lot of warm water vapor in the tropics (T&S) up into the troposphere at levels where the MSU are sensitive to it (Eli's ansatz).

Convection - Vertical motion driven by buoyancy forces arising from static instability, usually caused by near - surface cooling or increases in salinity in the case of the ocean and near - surface warming in the case of the atmosphere.

If convection and evaporation were not present, I could see the argument being made that a slight increase in Radiation having some warming effect, however convection and evaporation do exist within the Troposphere and the rate of cooling the two exhibit increases as surface temps increase.

It says nothing about deep - sea temperatures, although it does reference increased warm water and convection (i.e. tropical cyclones) in the Indian Ocean, which might, in turn, be involved with the 0 - 2000 meter trend in the Indian Ocean mentioned above (originally from Bob Tisdale).
