Sentences with phrase «increase evaporation rates»

Warmer temperatures can directly increase evaporation rates, and also affect the water vapour transport within soils themselves, further adding to the evaporative demand.

The theory is that increasing CO2 will cause a small bit of warming and this will increase evaporation rates (which occur fastest in the tropics) and dumps more water vapour in the atmosphere (water vapour is by far a more potent greenhouse gas than CO2) and this feedback amplification is meant to continue until Earth settles down and finds a new equilibrium temperature.

While an increase in the amount of radiation the Earth receives by trapping outgoing IR would increase surface temps, would the increased surface temp not increase the convection and evaporation rates introducing a negative feedback?

Simultaneously, as the average liquid droplet becomes smaller through evaporation, the vapor's density increases, so more vapor molecules merge at a faster rate to become microscopic liquid droplets, and more water molecules are ionized.

The increased temperatures cause higher evaporation rates meaning more moisture is pulled out of the tees.

If surface temperatures spike, and the ground is wet, evaporation rates increase, reducing the temperature by latent heat transfer.

As both evaporation rates and heavy rainfall events increase in a warming world, this lends itself to bigger variations in precipitation.

An increase in surface temp will increase water vapor pressure at the surface: that will likely increase the rate of evaporation at the surface, which may or may not increase cloud cover.

The rate of evaporation from the ocean seems to be increasing as the world warms.

But going into spring and summer, soil should dry out more quickly (and it has been) given a decreased warm month precipitation and increased rate of evaporation.

I had stated that globally the rate of evaporation and precipitation increase at the same rate as the humidity of saturation, that is, by 8 % per 1 °C based on a roughly constant residence time, but this is false:

For example, as the lower atmosphere becomes warmer, evaporation rates will increase, resulting in an increase in the amount of moisture circulating throughout the troposphere (lower atmosphere).

Part way there, but no quantitation yet: of the 3.77 W / m ^ 2 radiated back dowwnard, most goes to increased rate of evaporation of the water at the surface, and much less goes to increased mean temp increase at the surface; hence increased rate of non-radiative transfer of heat from surface to upper atmosphere, slight increase in rainfall as hydrological cycle is faster, and slight increase in cloud cover.

In a warming world we expect the rate of evaporation to increase.

Increase the temperature and you increase the rate of evapIncrease the temperature and you increase the rate of evapincrease the rate of evaporation.

This increases absorbed IR by a factor of 5, offset in the hind0 - casting by exaggerated cloud albedo, hence evaporation and heating rate is artificially increased.

The steady increase in global temperatures, including average temperatures in Australia, means that even when rainfall is at or near the historical average, conditions are drier than before because evaporation rates are higher.

Both effects imply a higher rate of evaporation of surface water given temperature and CO2 increases, though quantitative effects entail intractable calculations.

There isn't enough extra power supplied by a doubling of CO2 concentration to do that, if the evaporation rate increases 11 %.

However, they may reduce productivity in warmer areas through increased rates of evaporation and stomatal closure due to higher vapor pressure deficits.

However there would then be more conduction, convection and on Earth more evaporation from the surface for an increased upward energy flow which would work to maintain the lapse rate set by sun and pressure.

Another paper criticized Wentz's analysis because he did not consider other factors which play a role in precipitation such as global brightening during the period of study; and the error bars in Wentz's estimate of the evaporation rate increase was considerable.

The main message of the figure below is that the precipitation and evaporation increase at a much lower rate than Clausius — Clapeyron would predict, about 2 - 4 % per degree K.

As the temperature increases, the water vapor pressure (hence by inference the water evaporation rate on non-dry surface) increases supralinearly; that is, a 1K increase from 288 K is much less than a 1K increase from 308K.

The added effect of warming is that more rain has to fall to make up for the resulting increased rate of evaporation.

Hence less than 0.8 W / m ² radiated from the surface do no longer reach the cosmos [26] and are carried away by the evaporation associated with a minuscule temperature increase of the surface: for evaporation at +6 W / m ² / °C, the required temperature increase would be 0.13 °C spread over the 200 years it would take to double the CO2 content of the air at the rate of +2 ppm / year.

«With global temperatures warmer now than they were at the beginning of the last century, that means our temperatures are warmer too, which increases the rate of evaporation and increases the demands on water, increases the stress on the water supply, and also leaves us more susceptible to breaking the high - temperature record, which we've been doing lately,» Nielsen - Gammon said.

Increased evaporation and precipitation rates are not likely to produce decreased cloud cover; other than that, net H2O feedbacks are unknown.

Fires: We know that higher temperatures lead to increased rates of evaporation, leading to rapid drying of soils.

Since latent heat transport (and surface cooling of the ocean) must increase in proportion to the rate of evaporation, perhaps Wentz et al have identified a reason why the models appear to overstate climate sensitivity: the actual latent cooling increases by about 4 watts per square meter more than the models predict for each degree rise in surface temperature.

The rate of evaporation also increases with temperature, also a cooling effect.
