Sentences with phrase «in radiative exchange»

Convection is based on the VERY near surface temperature whereas SB is based on the temperature of the larger air mass in radiative exchange with the surface.

Since the Lapse Rate for the atmosphere is around 6.5 DegC / Km, air higher in the atmosphere in radiative exchange with the ground will be at varying temperatures.

The recent JCAP paper published in Nature Communications introduces a transcendent approach to understanding PEC device performance for arbitrary material and device quality, using five representative parameters: semiconductor absorption fraction, external radiative efficiency, series resistance, shunt resistance and catalytic exchange current density to account for imperfect light absorption, charge transport and catalysis.

ENSO events, for example, can warm or cool ocean surface temperatures through exchange of heat between the surface and the reservoir stored beneath the oceanic mixed layer, and by changing the distribution and extent of cloud cover (which influences the radiative balance in the lower atmosphere).

I didn't know that data since 1850 as summarized is essentially useless for estimating climate sensitivity given that the Earth's radiative heat exchange is not in equilibrium over that period.

To obtain realistic simulations, it was found necessary to include additional energy sources and sinks: in particular, energy exchanges with the surface and moist atmospheric processes with the attendant latent heat release and radiative heat inputs.

For those who want to check out the physics, read up the statistical thermodynamics which leads to Kirchhoff; s law of radiation and realise that «Prevost exchange energy» is needed to connect the IR density of states in the two objects in radiative equilibrium and maintain absorptivity = emissivity.

However, the second law is not violated by the greenhouse effect, of course, since, during the radiative exchange, in both directions the net energy flows from the warmth to the cold.»

i) The total exchange of radiation between Space and the TOA and between surface and the TOA is sufficiently large that an increase in the radiative capabilities of an atmospheric constituent that amounts to 0.04 % of the atmosphere would appear unlikely to have any significant effect.

Given the vast pool of very cold water in the deep ocean, even modest changes in the rate it exchanges heat with the surface can produce large changes in temperature without any change in the planetary radiative balance.

The rationales for coupling are to investigate potentially significant feedbacks (e.g., radiative properties for different airborne crystalline ice structures, changes in air and water inertia due to suspended dust and sediments, and water and other material exchanges with plants and biome evolution) and to achieve ever fuller depictions of Earth's fluid envelope.

Lateral expansion and carbon exchange of a boreal peatland in Finland resulting in 7000 years of positive radiative forcing.

But simple radiative exchange between two ideal bodies in a vacuum is very basic and very comprehensible.

However, six out of the 19 references in the paper are to Miskolczi himself and the fundamental equations brought up for energy balance (where radiative exchange is referenced) rely on his more lengthy 2007 paper, Greenhouse effect in semi-transparent planetary atmospheres.

There is more in the paper, including some very suspect assumptions about radiative exchange.

This and my previous posting in this series address ONLY the radiative exchange of energy.

When discussing radiative thermal energy exchange between two objects, it may very well be more appropriate to talk about the heat between objects and not mention the rate thermal energy leaves each object in the direction of the other object.

That the Green House Effect works by radiative exchanges in an atmospheric column of decreasing temperatures should also be common knowledge.
