Sentences with phrase «maintain top of atmosphere»

Then, if compositional changes occur, involving changes in the net radiative balance of the entire atmosphere the climate zones will shift as the atmosphere has to work more hard or less hard to maintain top of atmosphere energy balance.

Thus with GHGs in an atmosphere the circulation can slow down because more of its job of maintaining top of atmosphere energy balance is done for it by those radiative gases.

Not exact matches

Despite its size, this city of 80,000 residents maintains a small - town atmosphere, which is just one of the reasons why it ranks at the top of our list.

Here we analyse twenty - first - century climate - model simulations that maintain a consistent radiative imbalance at the top - of - atmosphere of about 1 W m − 2 as observed for the past decade.

The Realclimate theory thus fails and the temperature gradient from the body of the ocean to the top millimetre and then the atmosphere is maintained at or near to the natural level with the extra warmth being ejected from the system by the enhanced evaporation / condensation and weather processes.

If T were to be permitted to rise then the surface would be too warm for top of atmosphere energy balance plus the cost of maintaining atmospheric height,

«Because the solar - thermal energy balance of Earth [at the top of the atmosphere (TOA)-RSB- is maintained by radiative processes only, and because all the global net advective energy transports must equal zero, it follows that the global average surface temperature must be determined in full by the radiative fluxes arising from the patterns of temperature and absorption of radiation.»

«In order to maintain equilibrium with the incoming UV / VIS radiation received by the earth, the surface temperature would need to increase enough to allow it to radiate an additional 2.7 watt / m ^ 2 at the top of the atmosphere after any CO2 doubling.»

T represents the amount of energy available from all sources to maintain the constant flow that keeps the atmosphere off the surface AND achieves radiative balance at the top of the atmosphere.

This new paradigm states that rather than the TOA (top of the atmosphere) energy balance being maintained by changes to the outgoing long wave radiation (which is saturated), it is mainly maintained by changes to the outgoing short wave radiation, i.e. albedo.
