Sentences with phrase «planetary rotation rates»

The horizontal extent of the Hadley cell is determined to a large extent by planetary rotation rates.

The idealized GCMs described above are flexible and general enough that it is relatively straightforward to convert them into GCMs for other planets, for example, with different planetary rotation rates and radii and with different thermodynamic properties of the atmosphere, condensable species, and surface.

They looked at how different planetary rotation rates would impact heat transport with the presence of oceans taken into account.

«We now know that the lack of a protective magnetic field and the differing planetary rotation rates also play a role in ensuring that many of the atmospheric processes we observe on Earth occur at a much faster rate on Venus.

Starting from a typical January 1 initial condition in the present - day climate, we set the planetary rotation rate to 1 / 365th of the present value (so that 1 day is equal to 1 current Earth year).

Abstract: Based on more than four weeks of continuous high cadence photometric monitoring of several hundred members of the young cluster NGC 2264 with two space telescopes, NASA's Spitzer and the CNES CoRoT (Convection, Rotation, and planetary Transits), we provide high quality, multi-wavelength light curves for young stellar objects (YSOs) whose optical variability is dominated by short duration flux burs... ▽ More Based on more than four weeks of continuous high cadence photometric monitoring of several hundred members of the young cluster NGC 2264 with two space telescopes, NASA's Spitzer and the CNES CoRoT (Convection, Rotation, and planetary Transits), we provide high quality, multi-wavelength light curves for young stellar objects (YSOs) whose optical variability is dominated by short duration flux bursts, which we infer are due to enhanced mass accretion rates.

Re # 173 (Dan Allan): Large - scale reasons for the chaos include planetary tilt (= seasons), a high rate of rotation (= major Coriolis effect), much more solar heat applied at the equator than at the poles, unevenly distributed land, air and water, a molten core resulting in tectonic activity including continental drift and volcanos, the occasional hammer from space, a really large satellite creating major tides in addition to minor ones from the sun, plus some stuff I'm probably forgetting.

At the same time, the true forces on the Sun are revealed, which leads to a natural Newtonian explanation for all the «coincidences» between the planetary orbital elements and the Sun's motion, activity, surface flows and rotation rates.
