Sentences with phrase «movement of the air mass»

The study authors based their analysis on a combination of satellite observations of rainfall and vegetation and an atmospheric circulation model to track the movement of air masses.

The team combined this data with meteorological models of the temperatures, winds, and movement of air masses from the same time period, and then used a statistical method known as geostatistical inverse modeling to essentially run the model backward and determine the methane's origin.

AIR MASSES A large body of air (thousands of miles) Changes in weather are caused by movements of air masses As an air mass moves away, temp & humidity.

As a result of a weakening polar vortex, the movement of the air mass in the arctic begins to change.

The base of the Ferrel cell is characterized by the movement of air masses, and the location of those air masses is influenced in part by the location of the jet stream, even though it flows near the tropopause.

Not exact matches

It now uses a «flow through» system, in which air exchange with the outside is allowed while sensors record the movement of moisture and gas, enabling accurate estimates of total mass exchange with the outside world.

No, not by any annoying whistles caused by leaks but by the simple sound of a silent vehicle's passage through the air mass, just as one is aware of movement in a sailplane.

However, the popular nature of plein air movement seems a double - edged sword; more people now care about landscape painting but on the other hand the work often suffers from being geared toward mass consumption.

Nevertheless, there is an unmistakable and driving sense of kinetic movement and energy within all her works, especially the pointillism of her «arrow» paintings that depict schools of tiny arrows massing and converging like small fish or unseen air currents.

Long story short, the polar vortex is the result of global warming changing the semi-permanent weather system over the arctic regions resulting in movement of cold air masses from the arctic region to parts of North America, such as Canada and, unfortunately, poor Buffalo.

Rather than flow around the arctic in a circular manner, the movement of the cold air becomes wavier, bringing the mass further and further south (see the pictures above).

The energy path is absorption, mass transfer of some of it to the air, upwelling radiation of the rest, absorption of IR by GHG's, re-radiation up to space and down to the surface, absorption and heating of that surface, mass transfer to the lower atmosphere, movement by convection to the thermometer.

Evaporation of water molecules takes energy from the skin layer and transports it to the air layer — this can be compared to the convection process but without the movement of the mass back into the ocean skin layer as it would be in the case of the real convection.
