Sentences with phrase «radiation from the sun providing»
Not exact matches
Although Proxima Centauri's dimness provides the planet with a balmy climate, the star is prone to outbursts of harsh X-ray and ultraviolet radiation, which could damage any chance of life on the planet — X-rays hit the surface 400 times more often than those from the sun pummel Earth.

Btw, if anyone can provide any evidence of more than 10 watts per square meter of any kind radiation from the Sun [or from anywhere] other than the energy emitting from the Sun in wavelength in the range 250 to 2500 nm and intersecting the earth surface, I would find this very fascinating.
Earth's atmosphere also plays a vital role in regulating the temperature by providing a blanket of gases that not only protects us from excessive heat and harmful radiation from the sun, but also traps heat rising from the Earth's interior, keeping us warm.
The theory is that the Ozone Hole, by allowing more of the UV component of the Sun's incoming radiation to make it down to low altitude rather than being absorbed in the stratosphere is providing an incremental energy increase to drive the strength of the SAM, and thus the degree to which Antarctica is isolated from more global weather influences.
The Sun's radiation transports, or emits, short - wave electro - magnetic radiation away and thus avoids «a big bang» --(There may also be back radiation from planets etc. provided the radiative forces are strong enough to reach the Sun) On a smaller scale the same «Energy Transport System» or radiative principles work here on Earth too.
Notice that the Earth System mean temperature I had to use to provide 240 Watts / m ^ 2 of radiation to Space to balance the input absorbed from by the Earth System from the Sun was 255 K. However, the actual mean temperature at the Surface is closer to 288 K.
