Unless the air temperature was significantly lower than the bulk water temperature, a skin temperature, albeit slightly elevated versus the bulk temperature, by
incident long wave radiation, would have an truly insignificant effect.
Not exact matches
RE: # 1 — Indeed, I would think that any net increment in energy due to a net increment in
long wave incident radiation would rapidly and efficiently dissipate in the enormous mass of water.
Thirdly, CE addresses the shortwave
incident radiation without addressing the issue of outgoing
long wave radiation that increases earth's temperature beyond unbearable limits.
