Sentences with phrase «much sunlight clouds»

Not exact matches

If one sets out well before dawn, and arrives at the top in time to see the sunrise, one will find oneself walking as much in the clouds as through the trees, and there is a brief period (twenty minutes or so) when the sunlight first reaches the ridge, at a sharply lateral angle, and one is all at once passing through shifting veils of translucent gold.
During the dry season, with no fog layer to reflect sunlight, the smaller cloud cover allows plants to receive much higher radiation, increasing evaporation and photosynthesis rates, another process missed by the GCMs.
This image suggests that the polar vortex clouds form at a much higher altitude, where sunlight can still reach, than the surrounding haze.
Re 9 wili — I know of a paper suggesting, as I recall, that enhanced «backradiation» (downward radiation reaching the surface emitted by the air / clouds) contributed more to Arctic amplification specifically in the cold part of the year (just to be clear, backradiation should generally increase with any warming (aside from greenhouse feedbacks) and more so with a warming due to an increase in the greenhouse effect (including feedbacks like water vapor and, if positive, clouds, though regional changes in water vapor and clouds can go against the global trend); otherwise it was always my understanding that the albedo feedback was key (while sea ice decreases so far have been more a summer phenomenon (when it would be warmer to begin with), the heat capacity of the sea prevents much temperature response, but there is a greater build up of heat from the albedo feedback, and this is released in the cold part of the year when ice forms later or would have formed or would have been thicker; the seasonal effect of reduced winter snow cover decreasing at those latitudes which still recieve sunlight in the winter would not be so delayed).
Climate models projecting that much less sunlight will be reflected by low clouds when the climate warms indicate that CO2 concentrations can only reach 470 ppm before the 2 ℃ warming threshold of the Paris agreement is crossed — a CO2 concentration that will probably be reached in the 2030s.
Welcome to «science journalism» at The New York Times where climate forces are not so much about sunlight and cloud cover, but about «deniers», «doubters», and «disinformers».
It's much more complicated, to understand that: the sunlight» in many colours», comes from the other side of the water cloud and the dirty cloud.
on the other hand, CO2 intercepts small amount of sunlight high up, where cooling is much more efficient — as a result small amount LESS of the sunlight comes to the ground = same as the H2O cloud effect - > brings day / night's temp closer = less extreme.
The poleward shift of high - altitude clouds affects how much sunlight reaches Earth's surface because when they move, they reveal what's below.
I'm not even a regular scientist, much less a (sound of choir, ray of sunlight from parted clouds) «CLIMATE Scientist», so don't really know what goes on behind the curtain, but I will say that it is increasingly apparent to me that much of «science» (save that bastion of purity, mathematics), has been corrupted by greed, a political agenda (whose operatives are dupes of the former, really, viz..
