Sentences with phrase «evaporation increase rather»

Not exact matches

Even in areas where precipitation does not decrease, these increases in surface evaporation and loss of water from plants lead to more rapid drying of soils if the effects of higher temperatures are not offset by other changes (such as reduced wind speed or increased humidity).5 As soil dries out, a larger proportion of the incoming heat from the sun goes into heating the soil and adjacent air rather than evaporating its moisture, resulting in hotter summers under drier climatic conditions.6

This rather trivial correlation is to be expected in light of evaporation increasing exponentially with temperature, leading eventually to greater cloudiness.

If evaporation contributes only a portion of the cooling of that 1 mm layer (some or even most being attributable to conduction and radiation) then more evaporation would still cause even more cooling of that layer and would still be a mechanism for maintaining or increasing the energy flow to the air rather than decreasing it.

With evaporation being the more powerful effect the rate of energy flow to the air above is likely to increase rather than decrease and the 1 mm deep layer descend and / or intensify despite a warming of the topmost few microns.

Since evaporation and radiation both combine to cause the subskin to be cooler than the ocean bulk below then one would have thought that an increase in either would intensify the cooling of the subskin rather than warm it.

When DLR from a clear sky (either at night or by day) is present it does not significantly decrease upward radiation in the way that a cloud does and it increases evaporation by adding energy to the interacting layer (the top 10 microns) and then allowing maximum convection rather than suppressing it in the way that a cloud does.

Instead of warming the water down to a significant depth it rather serves to increase the evaporation rate and the heat is carried off the surface as latent heat of vaporization.
