Head does not expect to find the same icy cover in the equatorial regions of Mars where Spirit and Opportunity landed, but he hopes the «scratch and sniff» tests — in which the rovers drill into Mars rocks and compare the surface with the interior — will reveal the climatic history of the region.
«Where Jupiter is glowing evenly across its equatorial regions, Saturn has dark bands where the water is falling in, darkening the ionosphere,» said Tom Stallard, one of the paper's co-authors at LeiceWhere Jupiter is glowing evenly across its equatorial regions, Saturn has dark bands where the water is falling in, darkening the ionosphere,» said Tom Stallard, one of the paper's co-authors at Leicewhere the water is falling in, darkening the ionosphere,» said Tom Stallard, one of the paper's co-authors at Leicester.
«These chemicals enter the atmosphere at lower latitudes where they were used, and are then deposited down from the cold polar air, so Arctic animals are more highly exposed than animals in more temperate or equatorial regions,» University of Florida researcher Margaret James (who wasn't involved in the study) told New Scientist.
Jupiter's atmospheric marvels are not limited to its equatorial regions however; Juno has provided unprecedented views of the planet's poles, where massive cyclones churn with unearthly ferocity.
This chemical weathering process is too slow to damp out shorter - term fluctuations, and there are some complexities — glaciation can enhance the mechanical erosion that provides surface area for chemical weathering (some of which may be realized after a time delay — ie when the subsequent warming occurs — dramatically snow in a Snowball Earth scenario, where the frigid conditions essentially shut down all chemical weathering, allowing CO2 to build up to the point where it thaws the equatorial region, at which point runaway albedo feedback drives the Earth into a carbonic acid sauna, which ends via rapid carbonate rock formation), while lower sea level may increase the oxidation of organic C in sediments but also provide more land surface for erosion... etc..
A super important bonus, not least for users in equatorial or very hot regions — the light is transported without the excess heat that comes with direct sunlight, rendering it perfect where windows are kept to a minimum to keep the temperature down.
As far as water vapor in the tropics, they even say» In the humid equatorial regions, where there is so much water vapour in the air that the greenhouse effect is very large, adding a small additional amount of CO2 or water vapour has only a small direct impact on downward infrared radiation.»

As reported by the IPCC in the Physical Science Basis, «In the humid equatorial regions, where there is so much water vapour in the air that the greenhouse effect is very large, adding a small additional amount of CO2 or water vapour has only a small direct impact on downward infrared radiation.
The winds are probably less efficient in that regard than the ocean currents are so we might well see a situation where during a glacial, we have a situation where the equatorial region actually gets warmer than during an interglacial.
The differences are very small over most regions (less than ± 5 %), except for a small area of the equatorial Pacific Ocean, where the non-high-end models project an increase in precipitation that is about 50 per cent greater than in the high - end models.
