The finding suggests that models used to gauge the impact of drought on ecosystems should be refined to more accurately account for the role of
low atmospheric humidity.
Sufficient glacial expansion will reduce
lower atmospheric humidity, reduce kinetic induction within the lower atmosphere and hence increase the «thermal gap» tween lower atmosphere and Surface.
Not exact matches
When the
atmospheric conditions are right, with relatively
low temperature and high
humidity, the steam is visible even in summer, as happened in July 2013.
The red region shows the habitable zone as extended inward for dry planets, with minimal surface water, a
low water - vapor
atmospheric abundance, and
low atmospheric relative
humidity and hence a smaller greenhouse effect.
Now suppose that
atmospheric circulations don't change at all and that
humidity in the
lower troposphere increases, following Clausius - Clapeyron.
A clear and more detailed explanation can be found in Section 2.1 of the Simmons et al 2010 JGR article «
Low - frequency variations in surface
atmospheric humidity, temperature, and precipitation: Inferences from reanalyses and monthly gridded observational data sets» (doi: 10.1029 / 2009JD012442).

If one wants to dispute the concept of back radiation one must first explain why Tyndall's galvanometer would read progressively
lower as the absolute
humidity of the
atmospheric sample in the tube rose.
