Not exact matches

The Congressional briefing, «Living at the Extremes: Geoscience Research at the Coolest Places on Earth,» planned by AAAS in collaboration with the American Geophysical Union (AGU) in celebration of National Oceans Month, explored the implications that the Earth's poles have for our natural environment, oceans, and national security.

As the material cools, the nanomagnets are ordered according to the interactions of their poles at the vertices.

On January 10, 2006, astronomers using the infrared Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy (CHARA) Array announced that Vega rotates so fast (at around 91 percent of its «break - up rate») that it is cooler as well as 23 percent wider along its equator than at its poles due to the gravitational effect of its «middle bulge» (NOAO press release; AAS 207 session summary); and Aufdenberg et al, 2006).

Moreover, strong darkening observed around Vega's equator indicates that the star's surface at the equator is around 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit (2,300 ° Kelvin) cooler than at its poles.

Vega rotates so fast that it is cooler as well as wider at its equator than at its poles (more).

If something triggers a cool spell, such as an orbital variation reducing incident sunlight, then water freezes at the poles, which increases the Earth's albedo, while the cooler oceans absorb more CO2, reducing the greenhouse effect.

So when you transport enormous amounts of warm tropical waters to the poles for about 400,000 years, you end up with ice ages, which after a while may shut down the MOC again, further increasing the polar cooling, as for instance happened at the Younger Dryas.

Based on the cycle, it would suggest that we are heading into another Ice Age period of cooling where global temperatures will drop and ice will again form heavily at the poles.

One day, no matter what we do, this cool period we're in now will end and we'll have to contend with palm trees on the North Slope and in Siberial, and NO Ice at the poles.

Ocean surface heat and anomalous warmth at the poles were deciding factors for the new September record with very few regions of the global ocean surface showing cooler than average temps and with extraordinary heat at the poles, especially in Antarctica.

Even though the average temperature stayed the same, there were still regional changes, with cooling in the tropics and warming at both poles (particularly in their respective winters):

More warm water from the tropics flows at the surfce to the poles where it cools and sinks.

This snowpack accumulation near the poles, which gets its water via the Arctic and Antarctic oceans, that in turn rob it from equatorial latitudes of our oceans, also results in a reduction in the earth's spin axis moment of inertia and causes the spin rate to increase as evidenced in the recent history of the rate at which Leap Seconds are added to our calendar (see Wysmuller's Toucan Equation for more on this evidence that during this warm time with much greater polar humidity, earlier seasonal, later seasonal and heavier snows are beginning to move water vapor from the oceans to the poles to re-build the polar ice caps and lead us into a global cooling, while man - made CO2 continues to increase http://www.colderside.com/faq.htm).

Birkeland currents are interesting, although they seem to be a possible correction to direct solar irradiance only at the poles and only in the ionosphere, which is already enormously hot — between 1500C and 2500C — but so tenuous that you wouldn't feel heat if you stuck your arm out into the near vacuum of the ionosphere, you'd feel intense cooling as your blood started to boil and ordinary thermometers would radiate heat away faster than they would equilibrate (and hence would read very cold temperatures).

Cold water at the poles dissolves atmospheric oxygen, cools even more, and sinks to the bottom, slowly moving to the equator, carrying the dissolved oxygen.

In contrast, during the summer at high latitudes, the troposphere warms significantly as a result of the long hours of daylight; however, owing to the oblique angle of the sunlight near the poles, the temperatures there remain relatively cool compared with middle latitudes.

Such events have been occurring in both hemispheres so it is likely that the observed cooling trend is occurring at both poles.

The melting ice would cool ocean surfaces at the poles even more.

The second is a temperature driven process where cold water sinks at the poles cooling the deep ocean.

My conclusion is that a careful observation of weather patterns over the entire globe and, in particular, ascertaining whether there is a net average surface movement of air towards the poles or towards the equator should reveal whether there is an overall global warming or cooling trend at any particular time.

The bone I am picking at is that heat moving elsewhere toward the pole does not improve on the earth's cooling in and of itself.

As it's more moist in the tropics, the air cools at a slower rate compared to the poles.

7 Tropical wet; tropical wet / dry a) Sub climates Humid Tropical Moist mid-latitude Sub climates Tropical wet; tropical wet / dry a) Sub climates Severe winters; humid continental, sub - arctic / mild winters; humid subtropical, marine west coast, Mediterranean b) Location Close to equator and in ITCZ Severe winters: interiors and eastern coasts of continents, close to poles; mild winters: along water at edges of continents c) Features Hot / rainy year round; hot with wet and dry seasons; tropical rain forests and grasslands c) Features: severe winters: cold winters, hot / humid summers except in sub-arctic; mild winters: hot, muggy or cool summers depending on coastal position, and mild winters with mostly rain.

given a past where the world was a snowball and much cooler, given a past when there were allegators at the north pole, What EXACTLY does the theory predict for the next 10, 20, 30 years?

The oceans at the poles absorb CO2 from the atmosphere where the water is cool enough for the CO2 to stay in solution, then the cool water returns the CO2 rising at the equatorial warmer waters where the CO2 is then released.

I can see isolated cases as compression at the poles and other curiosities but not on the average, and besides, even with those effects the temperature gradient is rarely actually inverted so in a net sense that is only slowing the cooling of the surface at the expense of equal cooling in the atmosphere which ends in a greater temperature gradient therefore a greater flux of energy upward to space.

The Argo floats went in search of a and found only a heating plateau (after adjusting the initial cooling upwards), b stopped in 1995, c never happened at all, d also went the opposite to predictions, with e only one of the poles warmed and the other cooled and f, according to Lindzen, is demonstrably untrue.

Although warming is most noticeable at the poles, higher latitudes are still among the coolest spots around.
