Sentences with phrase «outgoing energy»

A positive forcing, with more incoming energy, tends to warm the system, while a negative forcing, with more outgoing energy, tends to cool it.
This extra greenhouse gas in the atmosphere slows down the rate of outgoing energy, and the temperature becomes even hotter!
A positive forcing (more incoming energy) warms the system, while negative forcing (more outgoing energy) cools it.
These variations affect the total amount of incoming and outgoing energy in the Earth system, which, in turn, affects climate change.
Incoming energy (the left - hand arrow) is unchanged from Figure B, while outgoing energy increases.
Outgoing energy varies with cloud, ice, water vapor, dust... Where Δ (H&W) = 0 at points of local maximums and minimums then energy in = energy out and there is maximum entropy in the Earth's energy dynamic.
It is the amount of energy required to lift the bulk atmospheric mass off the surface and hold it off the surface that determines the temperature that will be attained over and above that required to match outgoing energy with incoming energy.
Assume a fixed rate of energy per unit time is being absorbed by and / or generated within an object; and at temperature T the object is in «heat transfer» equilbrium — i.e., the amount of outgoing energy per unit time is equal to the incoming radiation per unit time.
Where there is outgoing energy defecit, the atmosphere heats, lowering the height of the Tropopause.
Indicators of a warming world based on surface, satellite, and ocean temperature measurements, satellite measurements of energy imbalance (the difference between incoming and outgoing energy at the top of the atmosphere), and of receding glaciers, sea ice, and ice sheets, rising sea level, and shifting seasons.
To deal with that it is proposed that radiatively active gases in the atmosphere cause that uplift in temperature by radiating outgoing energy back to the surface for a reduction of the rate of cooling which then causes a surface temperature enhancement.
The excess gases in the atmosphere are believed to enhance the greenhouse effect by not only preventing infrared light from escaping into space, but also by absorbing more outgoing energy, leading to warmer surface temperatures.
Chris Huhne has resigned and in his letter to Mr Huhne the Prime Minister praises the outgoing Energy and Climate Change Secretary's environmental credentials:
But it also has two instruments that peer back at Earth and capture the entire planet with the aim of detecting long - term trends in the planet's balance of incoming and outgoing energy, along with long - term shifts in its clouds, aerosols, and ozone.
The outgoing energy secretary, Ernest Moniz, is a Massachusetts Institute of Technology physicist, who replaced a Stanford University physicist, who was appointed by Obama to succeed an MIT chemical engineer.
Second, and the most interesting one for me, is how the outgoing energy affects the underlying distribution of dark matter.
So it's essential that the home I share with my husband is a sanctuary that supports all the outgoing energy in my life.
Try to find this outgoing energy in the fingers without letting them get hard or making jazz hands.
global average sfc T anomalies [as] indicative of anomalies in outgoing energy... is not well supported over the historical temperature record in the model ensemble or more recent satellite observations
What happens at the «top of atmosphere» — the level where outgoing radiation leaves for space, not itself a very easy concept — is the restoration of equilibrium, the increase in temperature that, through Helmholtz - Boltzmann at the Earth's brightness temperature 255K, restores the balance between incoming and outgoing energies.
Re # 45 and 46 For simplicity, for an Earth at «equilibrium» the energy of incoming SW radiation is balanced exactly, from physics, by the outgoing energy of LW radiation, otherwise the Earth would either warm up or cool down.
On Earth, Li said the incoming energy is approximately equal to the outgoing energy.
Greenhouse gases affect the ability of this outgoing energy to pass through the atmosphere.
Because it would not affect the rate at which energy from the sun is absorbed, an imbalance would be created between incoming and outgoing energy.
By determining how the air absorbs and emits radiation, greenhouse gases play a vital role in preserving the balance between incoming and outgoing energy.
