The configuration suppresses thermal convection currents on the substrate and cools the reactant gases just before they react.
Burning embers from the bark of trees were carried aloft by shifting winds and updrafts of the fire's own convection currents for up to 20 miles, jumping across roads, clearing fire breaks, and starting new blazes on the parched ground.
By comparison, conventional saunas must rely only on indirect means of heat: first, on convection (air currents) and then, conduction (direct contact of hot air with the skin) to produce its heating effect.
The content covered by the lesson are; Convection currents recap, what happens at the four (4) types of plate boundaries, identifying the different plate boundaries on a map, and how are hazards formed at different plate boundaries.

We can check the current SST and see that this matches what is going on currently, except for the cold region near 50N 25W, which was there not too long ago, but has recently disappeared, so we appear to be in a phase of high deep - water convection in the North Atlantic.

Gas and liquids are fluids, this sets up convection currents in the heavy fluid voluminous gas which is our atmosphere as they exist in the fluid liquid water which is the ocean, in the air these volumes of air on the move, packets as some call them..
showing how EM radiation, heat and air / water kinetic energy (in cells, circulations, currents, weather systems and convection columns and so on) move and how long they have to move before they reach some kind of equilibrium would go some way to visualising why it takes time for the earth system to respond to radiative forcing (commitment time lag).
