Sentences with phrase «from equilibrium conditions»

The short term proportionality between temp and rate of change of SST shows 1 degree deviation from equilibrium conditions causes 8 ppm / year of CO2 out - gassing from the oceans.

Then again it may prove exceedingly difficult to ever create a workable unified theory of far from equilibrium conditions.

This is a kind of structure, but one which exists far from the equilibrium condition of zero rate of production of entropy.

«This research shows that we need to get away from a simple paradigm of exoplanets, just thinking about stable equilibrium conditions and habitable zones.

The team saw in exquisite detail how the atoms at the hematite surface and water molecules nearby responded to far - from - equilibrium conditions caused by electrically charging the interface.

A new mechanism to produce the dust in the presented debris disks, deviations from the conditions required for a standard equilibrium collisional cascade (grain size exponent of -3.5), and / or significantly different dust properties would be necessary to explain the potentially steep SED shape of the three debris disks presented.

«This research shows that we need to get away from a simple paradigm of exoplanets, just thinking about stable equilibrium conditions and habitable zones,» said Wordsworth.

But as we shift from what may be perceived as abnormal conditions to more normal conditions — when there is some degree of volatility and a higher interest - rate environment — we think the equilibrium between growth and value will also normalize.

Consider a box willed with gas, under two conditions: (1) the first box is in equilibrium, at high temperature, and thus has a high energy content; (2) the second box has low energy content, but is out of equilibrium: it is stirred by turbulent convection, produced by heating from below and cooling from above.

At the point where there is so much H2O vapor in the atmosphere that there is very little solar heating of the surface (very very far from happenning), there will also tend to be almost no net LW cooling at the surface, so a tropospheric - type lapse rate could still tend to extend down to the surface (as long as the net LW cooling is smaller than the SW heating, there will be some non-radiative flux from the surface for equilibrium conditions).

(In the global time average, diffusion of latent heat is in the same direction as sensible heat transport, but latent heat will tend to flow from higher to lower concentrations of water vapor (or equilibrium vapor pressure at the liquid / solid water surface), and regionally / locally, conditions can arise where the latent heat and sensible heat fluxes are oppositely directed.)

(In full thermodynamic equilibrium, all photon - non-photon interactions, including Raman and Compton scattering, would sustain that equilibrium; all such interactions tend to eventually bring a system towards such equilibrium provided that photons (as well as other particles) are not entering or leaving the system from other systems with different conditions.)

The Second Law (with this condition quoted from Wiki) «Thermodynamic equilibrium has the greatest entropy amongst the states accessible to the system» is exactly what I talk about in the 4 page Appendix of «Planetary Surface Temperatures.

Not only is earth's climate never in equilibrium, but global climate is never the same from moment to moment and no global climate conditions have ever repeated nor will they ever repeat.

From the comments I have read so far I think everyone is missing the very important point you made in defining the initial conditions: Essentially you are setting the initial conditions to equilibrium and THEN detail your proof FOR THAT CONDITION.

I would say and / or conclude there is convection in Fig. 1 top post prior to equilibrium whenever heat is still flowing from the initial conditions.

It invokes equilibrium conditions when the actual climate is a far from equilibrium system.

>> All the above figures should be treated as conservative underestimates as we move from the stable conditions of the Holocene into the far - from - equilibrium, rapid change and enhanced sensitivity of the Anthropocene.
