Sentences with phrase «create updrafts»

Initially, he believed the birds were using «wave lift» to get a boost — capitalising on gusts of wind forced upwards by the sloping edges of waves to create updrafts like those found along cliffs or mountain ridges.

The heat would rise, creating updrafts and quickly strengthening the storm.

However, this creates an updraft that allows Link to use the Paraglider to reach them.

As the number of initial fundings balloons, and as nontraditional money creates a powerful updraft for companies that make it through the initial cull, the imperative to cross the valley by any means necessary becomes ever more urgent.

This is because terrestrial hurricanes form when an inflow of air along the ocean surface sops up moisture and rises in a halo of updrafts to create towering columns of rain clouds.

Similar but larger particles are known to play a role in feeding powerful, fast - moving updrafts of air from the land surface to the atmosphere, creating the clouds that play a central role in the formation of water droplets that fall as rain.

This would seem to prevent the firestorm from spreading on the wind, but for the fact that tremendous turbulence is also created by the strong updraft which causes the strong surface inflow winds to change direction erratically.

Creating a supercell takes moisture, updraft, spin, and then the trigger — a boundary between hot and cold air masses.

Clearly, these aren't the conditions to create thermal updrafts — rising pockets of hot air that hawks and vultures ride like elevators.

A low - altitude flow of warm, moist air from an ocean area combined with a flow of cold, dry polar air high up creates maximum instability, which means that parcels of air heated near the surface rise rapidly, creating powerful updrafts.

In the «Equinox» figure, the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) occurs at the equator where the Trade Winds converge creating a low - pressure center and updrafts (red arrows).

Hailstones are created so it is believed, by a more or less continuous loop of being caught in violent updrafts as found in thunderstorms, ie; above glider example, and then falling out of the updraught cell back down to lower levels where they might be caught up again in another or the same updraft cell and so accumulate water and ice on the core of the frozen hailstone over a period of anywhere from just one passage in the updraft to a number of passages which can be ascertained and recognised by the number of rings when a hailstone is dissected across its diameter.

Clouds are negative feedback driven nucleation points — when daytime clouds start to form the albedo causes further cooling beneath them and heat - engine thunderstorms form from the updrafts of warm wet air lofted up to the stratosphere to efficiently cool and spread, creating a local convective cell that pulls heat out of the ocean (or the moist land or air) and moves it to a cold reservoir.

Every now and then, however, the shear is low and a cluster of thunderstorms joins up and creates a persistent updraft as warm wet air is pulled into the low pressure underneath, is lifted up (cooling), and falls back as much cooler rain.

Wouldn't that spell for a non-optimist more massive updrafts, change the ionization progression of O2 and other upper atmosphere components, distort the terrestrial solar tide and create shearing effects that contribute to turbulence and Bernoulli effects?

Cirrus clouds — high - altitude clouds of ice crystals — typically form as a byproduct of the life cycle of cumulus towers created by rising updrafts of heated, moist air.
