Sentences with phrase «hold more water vapour»

As the air gets warmer it can hold more water vapour, meaning that scientists expect global warming to be accompanied by wetter conditions overall.

In addition, it was already known via the Clausius - Clapeyron relation, that warmer air can hold more water vapour: the amount is about 7 % more per degree Celsius of warming.

Warmer temperatures result in higher evaporation rates, and warmer air can hold more water vapour.

However, as average global temperatures rise, the atmosphere is able to hold more water vapour, which in turn can add to the enhanced greenhouse effect, raing temperatures further.

This is because more warmth in Antarctica would allow the air to hold more water vapour, leading to increased precipitation and so a thickening of the snow cover.

A warmer atmosphere can hold more water vapour.

The increased warmth allows the atmosphere to hold more water vapour so that total atmospheric density increases and the atmospheric greenhouse effect strengthens.

He will not glean any disunity because the contributors to this forum are by and large scientists who understand the psychics behind global warming as thoroughly and well as; why does ice expand when heated; or why can warm atmosphere hold more water vapour than cold.

In addition, it was already known via the Clausius - Clapeyron relation, that warmer air can hold more water vapour: the amount is about 7 % more per degree Celsius of warming.

«Simple physics tells us that warmer air can hold more water vapour.

Warmer air can hold more water vapour that is eventually rained out, and warmer water holds more energy for a hurricane to draw its power from.

Warmer air holds more water vapour so that warmer air will extract more vapour from the ocean surface thereby cooling the ocean surface..

Lower obliquity should result in more water vapour in the tropics if the water vapour feedback holds true.

it thought it has been demonstrated that the atmosphere holds 4 % more water vapour now then it did at the start of the 20th century and that 2010 has had the heaviest rainfall globally.

For every extra degree (Cº) of warming, the atmosphere holds about 7 % more water vapour.

Watervapour has an enhancement effect, because the warmer the world getsas a result of other factors, the more water vapour is held in theatmosphere, resulting in even more...

The atmosphere now holds 4 % more water vapour than it did 40 years ago as a result of increasing temperatures.

The Guardian: «We know that water vapour (as a greenhouse gas) will amplify global warming because a warmer atmosphere can hold more of it.

As air warms it can hold more water, the increase in water vapour is said to be responsible for a possible amplification of global warming as the temperature warms.

The 2008 K&T cartoon gives a NET upward radiation flux from the surface of 33w / m2 with a downward adjustment to water vapour to 76w / m2 and conduction to 16w / m2 but the point holds; that point is more net heat is leaving the surface through methods other than radiation, particularly water; that to me means 2 things; water is a dominant mover of heat compared to CO2 and the sun's 168/166 w / m2 is a far more dominant heater than CO2 backradiation.
