The excessive heat increased the
rate of water loss by
evaporation and caused precipitation to shift
from snow to rain, leaving a meager snowpack and parched reservoirs.
The darkest blue indicates deeper water, but it's also this shade for another reason: the rich blue hue comes
from dye added to speed up the
rate at which the water absorbs sunlight and warmth, aiding
evaporation.
The most saline open sea is the Red Sea, where high temperatures and confined circulation result in high
rates of surface
evaporation and there is little fresh inflow
from rivers.

from evaporation is...
If we isolate the ocean for diagnosis, there is a rather short list of suspect forcings and feedbacks (ie changes in shortwave reaching ocean surface possibly
from strong negative aerosol feedbacks, net positive
rate change in loss of longwave
from the ocean (which would have implications for the positive WVF), net positive heat loss through
evaporation without balancing compensation (with other implications for positive WVF).
«Even if an area remains wet doesn't mean that it will be protected
from the other aspects of climate change: rising and far more erratic air temperatures, higher
rates of
evaporation (evapotranspiration), and the rising concentration of CO2,» he said in an e-mail message.
The
rate of
evaporation from the ocean seems to be increasing as the world warms.
A great deal, including the
rate of
evaporation from the surface, a major mechanism of energy transfers in the atmosphere.
Part way there, but no quantitation yet: of the 3.77 W / m ^ 2 radiated back dowwnard, most goes to increased
rate of
evaporation of the water at the surface, and much less goes to increased mean temp increase at the surface; hence increased
rate of non-radiative transfer of heat
from surface to upper atmosphere, slight increase in rainfall as hydrological cycle is faster, and slight increase in cloud cover.
However there would then be more conduction, convection and on Earth more
evaporation from the surface for an increased upward energy flow which would work to maintain the lapse
rate set by sun and pressure.
that is because the water vapor pressure is supralinearly related to temperature: that is, a temp rise
from 289K to 290K has a larger effect on vapor pressure (so, most likely, on the
evaporation rate) than does a temp rise
from 288K to 289K.
As the temperature increases, the water vapor pressure (hence by inference the water
evaporation rate on non-dry surface) increases supralinearly; that is, a 1K increase
from 288 K is much less than a 1K increase
from 308K.
From this paper it seems that
evaporation meant
evaporation rate.
In his House of Commons presentation, toward the end, he gives a sketch of an alternative derivation of the «Climate Sensitivity» based on observed
rates of
evaporation increase per change in sea surface temperature, and this based on data
from the 2007 paper by Wentz et.
Warm temperatures increase the
rate of
evaporation from parched soils and critically dry rivers, lakes, and streams — exacerbating the impacts of existing precipitation deficits.
If we are to get a real idea of the
rate of tropical convection that drives Hadley cell dynamics and the size of the subtropical high pressure cells we need to measure the
rate of
evaporation from the tropical ocean.
Hence less than 0.8 W / m ² radiated
from the surface do no longer reach the cosmos [26] and are carried away by the
evaporation associated with a minuscule temperature increase of the surface: for
evaporation at +6 W / m ² / °C, the required temperature increase would be 0.13 °C spread over the 200 years it would take to double the CO2 content of the air at the
rate of +2 ppm / year.
The
rate of
evaporation from the ocean is increasing as the world warms.
The existence of that cooler layer is evidence that the
rate of
evaporation is the primary influence on variability in the
rate of ocean energy loss (apart
from internal ocean circulation variability which is not relevant here) and it follows that more
evaporation for the same
rate of conduction and radiation (
from a stable temperature differential) will send that cooler layer deeper and / or intensify the temperature differential between it and the ocean bulk below.
From the
rate of
evaporation given above and figures in Energy Units we can calculate that this cooler cools a room at about the same
rate that a simple 750 Watt heater would warm the same room.
I have been engaged in a discussion with a young climatology professional who thought that
evaporation from the ocean surface left behind a residue of surplus energy to warm the oceans by reducing the
rate of energy release
from the oceans and thus justifying the AGW scenario.
Could an increase in greenhouse gases actually have a cooling effect over water by speeding up the
rate of
evaporation from the oceans thereby extracting energy faster
from the oceans, speeding up the hydrological cycle and pushing energy faster to space?
Instead the
rate of energy flow
from ocean to air would be primarily governed by the
rate of
evaporation and not by temperature differentials.
So if one increases the
rate of downwelling IR (thereby increasing the
evaporation rate) then the increase in upward energy flow caused by the fall in the temperature of that 1 mm layer will be greater than the decrease in upward energy flow that will result
from any reduced temperature differential between the topmost Knudsen layer and the ocean bulk arising
from the application of Fourier's Law.
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.
And if the deliverance of the radiation energy is intensive, then this might even cause both the increase of the
evaporation rate (here on the behalf of the incoming radiation without the need of energy supply
from below, which is the point of Stephen Wilde if I understand it correctly) and the increase of the temperature of the surface layer which is expected to initiate the flow of heat into the bulk of liquid phase.
It is often said that because the temperature gradient (
from subskin to skin) changes then the
rate of upward energy flow must slow down but that would not be the case if the enhanced
rate of
evaporation speeds up the
rate of flow again to negate the expected slowdown
from a decreased gradient.
Precipitation
from clouds, in turn, influences soil moisture and
evaporation rates.
DLR does increase the skin temperature but the increased
evaporation takes away the energy that came
from the DLR before it can either progress downward or slow down the upward
rate of flow
from the natural background processes.
If energy is being added to those molecules by DLR then why would the
rate of
evaporation be limited by the energy coming up
from below?
The amount of DLR does not determine the
rate of
evaporation or upward radiation
from the skin layer.
Additional to that, sufficient energy is used
from the DLR to cause the
rate of
evaporation that we could measure.
Results
from Fall et al. (12) indicate that TE (i) is larger than T in 8 areas with higher physical
evaporation and transpiration
rates (e.g. deciduous broadleaf forests and croplands) and (ii) shows a stronger relationship than T to vegetation cover, especially during the growing season (biomass increase).
The oceans control the background
rate of energy flow
from ocean to air via The Hot Water Bottle Effect and it is the energy flow
from ocean to air (supplemented to a miniscule extent by the greenhouse effect) that drives the
rate of
evaporation by creating varying temperature differentials between sea surface and air at the surface.
The size of the temperature differential between air and water combined with the
rate of movement of both air and water within the region of interaction dictates the
rate of
evaporation and the density and pressure differential dictates the direction of energy flow which on Earth is always continuous at variable
rates from water to air.
Warmer water surfaces
from extra downwelling infra red can not cause warming of the ocean bulk because the
rate of
evaporation increases proportionately to the extra energy available and the latent heat of
evaporation is then taken mostly
from the water.It is then no longer available to warm the ocean bulk.
As the world warms, the
rate of
evaporation from our oceans seems to be increasing, powering ever - stronger storms.
As regards a warming of the ocean skin,
evaporation is a continuous process caused by temperaure, density and pressure (not just temperature) differentials between water and air so that the
rate of
evaporation accelerates when a water surface is warmed such as
from the warming effect of extra greenhouse gases (especially if the air is dry).
In turn, the
rate of
evaporation drives the entire hydrological cycle by altering the size and latitudinal positions of the air circulation systems and thus the
rate of energy transfer
from surface to space.
However if those bursts of heat were to become more frequent or more intense then in order for the
rate of
evaporation to increase
from the surface to counteract it, the kinetic energy of the water molecules (i.e. the water's temperature) would need to increase.
Stephen Wilde is quite correct in pointing to
evaporation from the oceans and the
rate of the hydrological cycle as the pre-eminent regulator of surface temperatures on Earth in his conceptual «model.»
The annual loss of water
from a reservoir in arid or semiarid regions, where
evaporation rates are high, is typically equal to 10 percent of its storage capacity.
