Sentences with phrase «other atmospheric layers»

In any case; the question seems to me to be moot, since there is general agreement that CO2 and H2O and other GHG molecules DO capture LWIR from the surface or other atmospheric layers; which must increase the net energy (and Temperature) of THAT layer.

Not exact matches

We know that contained in these ice layers there are bubbles of atmospheric gases, particulate matter and other distince indicators of the climate at the time the layers were formed.
To investigate the layers and composition of clouds and tiny airborne particles like dust, smoke and other atmospheric aerosols,, scientists at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland have developed an instrument called the Cloud - Aerosol Transport System, or CATS.
It is in this layer that most pollutants emitted on the ground react with other atmospheric actors.
Other works include installations by Hans - Peter Feldmann and Tomoko Takahashi, which both highlight the cumulative power of photographs; a sound piece by Stephen Vitiello that layers barking dogs and firework explosions; and a film of drifting soap bubbles by Rivane Neuenshwander and Cao Guimarães that realizes the abstract forms of atmospheric conditions.
These expansive paintings, with their pixelated backgrounds and neon, atmospheric foregrounds, evoke technological cityscapes whose layered space and temporality recall Tron, City of Night, and other cinematic masterpieces of science fiction noir.
Given that the other important variables (sea surface temps, depth of the warm layer, and atmospheric moisture) are all predicted to increase, it seems hard to make the claim that tropical cyclones will be unchanged, just as it seemed unwise to claim that Lyman et al's «Recent cooling of the upper oceans» meant that climate models had fatal flaws.
(By similar logic, increasing atmospheric optical thickness tends to increase the downward flux at the surface or any other level, and reduce the upward flux at TOA or any other level, but with exceptions due to inversions (layers with increasing temperature with height).
At that time, there was also a newly perceived global atmospheric threat — the damage to the ozone layer from chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other synthetic compounds — and an international solution in a treaty that banned the chemicals.
Grasp this, and Eli's example of the three atmospheric layers radiating against each other becomes absurd.
Other aspects (temperature, winds, etc.) of the atmospheric environment and chemicals other than halocarbons can also influence the ozone lOther aspects (temperature, winds, etc.) of the atmospheric environment and chemicals other than halocarbons can also influence the ozone lother than halocarbons can also influence the ozone layer.
In other words, if the LTE assumption holds, the radiative properties of the atmospheric gases in a given «layer» can increase or decrease the average energy content of that layer relative to the others.
Obviously other very powerful factors play huge roles, such as natural oceanic cycles and weather patterns over all Arctic atmospheric layers.
But back then, it was concluded that Arrhenius was wrong and Ångström moved onto other research, despite Arrhenius publishing a paper critical of the experiments and explaining how in the dry upper atmospheric layers, the role of water vapour was of limited importance.
Bromine, the ozone - depleting element found in methyl bromide, is nearly 60 times more effective at destroying ozone than the chlorine found in CFCs.9 This means that even though its atmospheric lifetime is quite short (a little over a year) 31, the immediate impact of changes in methyl bromide emissions on the ozone layer is very high compared to other chemicals.
