Sentences with phrase «heat transport across»

Sriver and Huber have an article in Nature (May 31) on the role of tropical cyclones on heat transport across the thermocline in the subtropics.

Not exact matches

«We found that heat transported by oceans would have a major impact on the temperature distribution across a planet, and would potentially allow a greater area of a planet to be habitable.

However, the new research shows that phonons can reach across a gap as small as a nanometer, «tunneling» from one material to another to enhance heat transport.

While atomic vibrations, or phonons, typically can not transport heat across distances larger than a few atoms, the team found that the atoms» summed electromagnetic force can create a «bridge» for phonons to cross.

The THC actually transports a positive net amount of heat northward across the equator from the South Atlantic to the North Atlantic.

The important comparisons are based on the energy consumption of a present - day moderately affluent Briton (not a hypothetical future electric car driving energy efficient Briton) across every aspect of modern living - transport, heating, food and the rest.

This storm is helping to transport large amounts of heat out of the subtropics and mid-latitudes into the Arctic and that is resulting in a pattern change that is reversing the record strong polar vortex into a weaker, more disturbed polar vortex that should support a colder weather pattern across the hemisphere....

``... the eddy can not transport heat across the ocean surface by itself.

A near 80 degree Fahrenheit reading that would be warm in summertime — but one that cropped up in early April as a result of powerful and hot south to north air flows transporting heat across Asia and into the Arctic.

«We also need the Scottish government's forthcoming energy strategy to set a goal of securing half of all of our energy, across electricity, heat and transport, from renewables by 2030.

Above and below the thin skin layer, turbulent eddy fluxes enhance heat flux in the ocean and / or atmosphere across the interface.However, the eddy can not transport heat across the ocean surface by itself.The heat balance in the skin layer must be accomplished by molecular processes, hence the thin skin layer.T

Millions of poorer households across Europe currently spend far too much of their income on energy, mostly for heating and transport.

More current volume (heat content) or higher velocity (less heat loss during the transport process) across middle latitudes will result in global warming.

Convection and conduction are the modes of heat transport that are proportional to the temperature differential across a boundary.

Sverdrup et al. (1942), pp. 628 - 29, 635 - 37, 647, 685; Sverdrup (1957) likewise sees much more heat transport in the Gulf Stream than across the equator, and describes the North Atlantic deep circulation as driven by winds and heat but not salinity.

But now that the skin has warmed up, the temperature gradient across the subskin begins to decrease, and hence so does upward transport of heat energy via convection / conduction.

The zonal integral (east to west) of wind stress curl across an ocean basin is proportional to the western boundary current transport (i.e., the transport responsible for the dominant part of the poleward heat flux by the ocean).

The later onset of climate change - fueled heat waves across the Great Plains is found to be a result of the projected increase of the Great Plain low - level jet and moisture transport, attenuating the surface warming associated with climate change.
