Not exact matches

Wouldn't the real issue about Antarctic cooling be: if the amount of water locked up in the ice cap increasing or decreasing, and at what rate?

When greenhouse gases increase, more longwave radiation is directed back at the ocean surface, which warms the cool - skin layer, lowers the thermal gradient, and consequently reduces the rate of heat loss.

Increased warming of the cool skin layer (via increased greenhouse gases) lowers its temperature gradient (that is the temperature difference between the top and bottom of the layer), and this reduces the rate at which heat flows out of the ocean to the atIncreased warming of the cool skin layer (via increased greenhouse gases) lowers its temperature gradient (that is the temperature difference between the top and bottom of the layer), and this reduces the rate at which heat flows out of the ocean to the atincreased greenhouse gases) lowers its temperature gradient (that is the temperature difference between the top and bottom of the layer), and this reduces the rate at which heat flows out of the ocean to the atmosphere.

As your body increases sweat production to cool itself, your heart works harder to pump blood at a greater rate to boost circulation.

At the time, Alyssa Furtado, CEO of Ratehub.ca, explained that «these regulatory changes are much less severe than an interest rate increase and didn't cool the hottest markets.»

Absorption of thermal radiation cools the thermal spectra of the earth as seen from space, radiation emitted by de-excitation is what results in the further warming of the surface, and the surface continues to warm until the rate at which energy is radiated from the earth's climate system (given the increased opacity of the atmosphere to longwave radiation) is equal to the rate at which energy enters it.

The current warming the Earth has experienced can not be called cyclical, since the climate increasing its temperature at an exponential rate with no signs of cooling on the horizon (unless the unlikely event of the shutdown of the North Atlantic conveyor system occurs).

OLR increases in the optically thinner bands would lead to atmospheric warming in general, but this has to be accompanied by OLR decreases somewhere, such as in optically thicker bands (and always in the band where optical thickness was added, assuming positive lapse rates everywhere as is the case in a 1 - dimensional equilibrium model with zero solar heating above the tropopause, or at least not too much solar heating in some distributions), which will tend to cause cooling of upper levels.

Because latent heat release in the course of precipitation must be balanced in the global mean by infrared radiative cooling of the troposphere (over time scales at which the atmosphere is approximately in equilibrium), it is sometimes argued that radiative constraints limit the rate at which precipitation can increase in response to increasing CO2.

They have have sought to render the 1940s less warm so as to compress the 1920s to 1940s warming, they have warmed the period between 1940 and 1970 thereby reducing the amount of the 1940s to 1970s cooling (in accordance with the Team's declared intention, to eradicate or at any rate reduce the 1940s blip), and they have increased the post 1970s warming exaggerating the trend.

Another way to ask this might be, why is the upper atmosphere cooling with increased GHG levels while the lower atmosphere continues to rise at a sharp rate compared to background seasonal oscilations?

But if CO2 had removed 1 °C of cooling per day, the temperature would necessarily increase at this rate.

This is because carbon is sequestered at a faster rate, and other biogeophysical processes (e.g. increased transfer of moisture from the surface to the atmosphere, known as evapotranspiration) enhance the cooling, in the tropics.

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).

An increase in water vapor content in the lower atmosphere would also reduce the cooling rate at night.

Our devotee will also pass by the curious additional facts that a period of similar warming occurred between 1918 and 1940, well prior to the greatest phase of world industrialisation, and that cooling occurred between 1940 and 1965, at precisely the time that human emissions were increasing at their greatest rate.

I do think, however, that it is significant (short term, not a firm trend) that CO2, as measured at MLO, has been increasing at a smaller rate than in previous years despite the fact that overall anthropogenic CO2 output is not decreasing and, furthermore, that the short term trend of the absolute increase is also down which indicates a greater rate of absorption of CO2 than in previous years — which to me would indicate an ongoing cooling of the oceans as per the theory that a cooling ocean absorbs more CO2 while a warming ocean releases more CO2.

ii) At the same time it increases evaporation and therefore net cooling in SST (int) which increases the flow through the lower layers again thus cancelling i) for a zero net effect on the rate of energy flow from the subskin.

On odd days, I don't believe this at all and think CO2 can only increase coupling to space (increase our cooling rate).

The sea seems to be cooling at a slightly faster rate than the land (is that an indication of the increasing OHC?)

The increased IR back radiation slows the cooling of the ocean by slowing the rate at which heat from below the first few millimeters comes to the surface.

One of the main reasons for this is that the rate at which temperatures cool with increasing altitude (known as the lapse rate) is greater in dry air than it is in moist air.

If there is, concurrently to this process, a reduction in the rate of cooling of the mixed layer to the atmosphere and to space (radiative + latent + sensible), then this will offset upwelling cooling of the mixed layers while the deeper layers will still gain heat unabated (or even at an increased rate).

The market has been hit by a confluence of policies: Ontario's Fair Housing Policy, including a foreign buyers» tax aimed at cooling the market; a new mortgage stress test targeted at protecting Canadians from dangerously high household debt levels; and the Bank of Canada's moves to increase interest rates.
