Sentences with phrase «increasing evaporative cooling»

Irrigated crops will increase evaporative cooling, and in some cases irrigated land area is large.

Not exact matches

They based their results on a mechanism called «evaporative buffering,» in which excess warming at the equator causes increased evaporation, cooling the planet in the same way that perspiration cools a marathon runner.

The increase in evaporative cooling with increased surface temperature is therefore limited by the increase in precipitation, not by the increase in sea surface temperature.

In fact, it is the TOA energy balance which takes primacy in many climate change discussions (there are some exceptions, such as if you could introduce a moist surface in the Sahara desert, the evaporative cooling would likely be more important regionally than CO2 increase).

AltaRock's team of engineers can also increase the efficiency of existing power plant infrastructure and decrease evaporative loss in the cooling system to further extend the life of existing geothermal power projects.

I'm puzzled why it is that people don't get excited by the apparent probability that the evaporative cooling / latent heat transfer should provide a major negative feedback with any T increase / increased water vapour.

«anti-rural factors» — lack of evaporative cooling from soil and plants, lack of plant cooling, increased thermal conductivity and capacity from artificial structures, faster water runoff and sequestration in cities

Some of the surface cooling would be caused by an increase in evaporative cooling due to the higher trade winds, but the vast majority of the surface cooling is caused by the upward shift in the thermocline, which is also related to the increase in trade winds.

There is evaporative cooling which is increased with surface winds, aka velocity pressure that also can do the «filling».

A heavy storm releases energy pushing the cloud top up to sometimes 20 km in deep convection and downdrafts increase with evaporative cooling with the downward flow converting to horizontal flow.

Major increases in vegetation might have a cooling effect on the station due to evaporative effects, while declines in vegetation back to Category 1 standards might have a warming impact.

ii) The evaporative process having increased draws more energy up from the subskin to compensate for a shortfall in available latent energy from the skin upwards so the subskin cools further.

But the ratio of evaporative cooling to total convective cooling would tend to increase (see «Bowen ratio»).

«Clouds, which largely determine the geographic patterns of DTR, greatly reduce DTR by sharply decreasing surface solar radiation while soil moisture decreases DTR by increasing daytime surface evaporative cooling.

This leaves only the surface evaporative cooling, which is balanced by global precipitation, as the term to accommodate such an increase.

Through their leaves, trees also provide evaporative cooling, which increases air humidity.
