Sentences with phrase «followed by convection»

But, when it does so it leaves the surface temporarily warmer and so evaporation increases, as does diffusion which is followed by convection.

There are other processes like evaporative cooling and diffusion followed by convection which can not be affected by backradiation, and which will tend to compensate for any slowing of the radiation.

«We then evaluated the system in rats with glioma and found that by using a method called intracranial convection - enhanced delivery, our nanoparticles could penetrate completely throughout the tumor following a single injection,» says Jordan Green, Ph.D, associate professor of biomedical engineering and ophthalmology at Johns Hopkins.

However, it is warmer outside the tropics at 50 mb, suggesting that convection followed by adiabatic expansion has produced these low temperatures.

When the cyclonic circulation of the QBW mode is located west of Taiwan, followed by an anticyclonic circulation to the east, Taiwan's diurnal convection activity tends to intensify and persists for about 4 - 7 days.

This is a clear indication that that it does not come principally from GHGs, whose re-emissions should coherently follow the surface temperature, but from the non-absorbent bulk constituents thermalized by the chaotic process of convection.

There I think that it is pretty obvious what actually establishes a lapse rate — differential heating of the air column at the bottom, followed by a rough equilibration due to approximately adiabatic convection.

Now, Leif, the cause of the turbulent field or natural convection is the suitable flow of energy from the solar core against gravity towards the surface, and the laws of fluid dynamics under conditions in which the convective cell has rotational and orbital components of angular momentum as determined by the path of the sun the planets force it to follow.

This study shows that warm, fresh surface layers in summer are followed by reduced heat losses in winter, shortening the time for convection.

It seems any atmosphere, even if the energy transfer might be slow and by conduction and convection, follows this same principle.

Radiation is thus always destabilizing the troposphere, and convections acts to move energy upward until a stable lapse rate is obtained, corresponding to an appropriate adiabat... this is why we have a troposphere, and one can identify tropospheres more generally by virtue of their temperature structure following such a curve.
