Sentences with phrase «flux on cloud cover»

Not exact matches

For a test of this transfer's mettle, check out chapter 10, «Intolerance»: Light sources fixed (lamps) and in flux (the cloud - covered sun) interact on the sea green walls of Sister Aloysius's office, never to band or to produce anything less than the million subtly different shades you'd see in real life — and these colours have a vividness that is achieved without sacrificing Meryl Streep's Grim Reaper - like complexion.

However, even a smaller figure (I had calculated about 0.17 W / m ^ 2 based on your inflated figure for total planetary albedo, but you can check it out) is still significant when compared with the total flux imbalance, which I think is a more informative comparison than an arbitrarily selected change in cloud cover, because it compares the sea ice reduction with the effects of all climate variations that have been operating in recent years..

The radiative impact of a decrease in cloud cover on the surface net flux can be offset or even canceled if cloud opacity increases by 5 % -10 %.

On average, at all stations, the sensitivity of surface shortwave flux to changes in cloud cover is about -0.5 ± 0.1 W m - 2 % -1 in winter according to both ground - based and satellite observations but in summer reaches -1.5 ± 0.3 and -1.8 ± 0.2 W m - 2 % -1 according to ground - based and satellite observations, respectively.

On reading the paper there are several references to a planetary influence on the Earth's magnetosphere and how increased cosmic flux excites the outer atmosphere leading ultimately to more mid-latitude auroras (and changes in cloud coverOn reading the paper there are several references to a planetary influence on the Earth's magnetosphere and how increased cosmic flux excites the outer atmosphere leading ultimately to more mid-latitude auroras (and changes in cloud coveron the Earth's magnetosphere and how increased cosmic flux excites the outer atmosphere leading ultimately to more mid-latitude auroras (and changes in cloud cover).

It is well known that the solar magnetic cycle strongly modulates the cosmic ray flux observed on Earth and there have been a number of papers concerning apparent correlations between cosmic rays and cloud cover.

In addition to the data from the radiometers, the Berkeley Lab scientists will get supplemental data by taking advantage of a separate, in - depth DOE climate study at the same location, which is using additional instruments and a balloon - borne sounding system to get information on temperature, cloud cover, the density and types of aerosols or pollution particles, heat fluxes and other climate variables like precipitation.
