Sentences with phrase «heat gain rates»

Not exact matches

Since OHC uptake efficiency associated with surface warming is low compared with the rate of radiative restoring (increase in energy loss to space as specified by the climate feedback parameter), an important internal contribution must lead to a loss rather than a gain of ocean heat; thus the observation of OHC increase requires a dominant role for external forcing.

«The rate of ocean heat gain during the past eight years is not unusual — indeed many studies of ocean data over the past 50 years and longer have produced similar rates.

With the approximation of geothermal and tidal (and fossil fuel combustion) heat supplies being zero (valid for at least the inner planets), the net flux at a given level is equal to the energy gain or loss rate for the whole climate system below that level.

The team estimates that the process can convert about 30 % of the energy stored in sewage to usable energy, a rate comparable with solar panel efficiencies or the energy gained in heat and power from methane fermentation.

Using satellite radiation balance measurements and ocean heaing measurements the earth appears to be gaining heat at a rate of 0.6 Watts / M2 on average.

c) If the If the rate of heat loss from the air was about the same as the rate of heat gain from the water, then its temperature would stay almost the same, and it would warm up when the water started freezing.

If the air was much colder than the water, as it would be if it had just blown over from the land, then: a) If the rate of heat loss from the air was smaller than the rate of heat gain from the water, the air would warm.

Long - term the oceans have been gaining heat at a rate equivalent to about 2 Hiroshima bombs per second, although this has increased over the last 16 or so years to around 4 per second.

Hence, contrary to what you seem to be assuming, ocean surface temperature (together with lower tropospheric temperature) are * inversely * related to the rate of ocean heat gain.

The formula for the «net rate [from the enclosed object] of loss or gain of energy by radiation (or the heat transferred by radiation) is

Given the absence of any physical evidence (such as actual testing of a float) that the floats are in error, I'm perfectly willing to accept their data — which shows the oceans are losing heat at a rate ~ 50 times as fast as they supposedly gained it over the last century.

The windows installed in the house have both a low solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) to reduce the amount of solar heat gain into the house, and an impact rating which prevents the glass from shattering and protects the interior from wind - borne debris during a hurricane.

Argo data reveal that in 2005 — 2010 the ocean's upper 2000 m gained heat at a rate equal to 0.41 W / m2 averaged over Earth's surface [70].

Roof or ceiling insulation, insulation in exterior walls: Any material that when placed between the interior surface of the building and the exterior surface of the building, reduces the rate of heat loss to the environment or heat gain from the environment.

The amount of ocean heating up to 2000M tells the story that the earth has been gaining heat and the rate has not decreased since 1990.

If there is, concurrently to this process, a reduction in the rate of cooling of the mixed layer to the atmosphere and to space (radiative + latent + sensible), then this will offset upwelling cooling of the mixed layers while the deeper layers will still gain heat unabated (or even at an increased rate).

Rather than confirming that smart meters don't work, or are being manipulated for financial gain the report placed the blame on a heat wave and an increase in rates.
