Not exact matches

Male rats developed heart tumors when exposed to high levels of a type of radiation used by the wireless telephone industry, according to the draft studies released Friday.

How do you figure out what powers solar flares — the intense bursts of radiation coming from the release of magnetic energy associated with sunspots — when you must rely on observing only the light and particles that make their way to near - Earth's orbit?

Knowing when such storms are coming helps protect astronauts as well as ground communications: Physicists estimate that a 1989 solar outburst released enough radiation to expose astronauts on the Mir space station to their yearly dose in just a few hours.

Satellites and balloons first detect a blue flash — known as Cerenkov radiation — when cosmic rays smash into the upper atmosphere and release energy.

We believe that when G100 is administered with mechanisms that kill, or lyse, tumor cells (such as radiation), it may cause dendritic cells near the lysed tumor to activate and capture the wide range of released endogenous tumor antigens.

This furocoumarin is highly photosensitising to human skin, swelling to three times its normal size when exposed to sunlight and releasing a burst of radiation.

Patients are released when they meet radiation level criteria previously established by the state of Utah, usually in 5 to 10 days.

Re 9 wili — I know of a paper suggesting, as I recall, that enhanced «backradiation» (downward radiation reaching the surface emitted by the air / clouds) contributed more to Arctic amplification specifically in the cold part of the year (just to be clear, backradiation should generally increase with any warming (aside from greenhouse feedbacks) and more so with a warming due to an increase in the greenhouse effect (including feedbacks like water vapor and, if positive, clouds, though regional changes in water vapor and clouds can go against the global trend); otherwise it was always my understanding that the albedo feedback was key (while sea ice decreases so far have been more a summer phenomenon (when it would be warmer to begin with), the heat capacity of the sea prevents much temperature response, but there is a greater build up of heat from the albedo feedback, and this is released in the cold part of the year when ice forms later or would have formed or would have been thicker; the seasonal effect of reduced winter snow cover decreasing at those latitudes which still recieve sunlight in the winter would not be so delayed).

When we say «positive» and «negative» feedbacks in the sense of radiation (so I'm not talking about carbon - cycle responses such as methane release from the oceans or such) we're referring to temperature - sensitive variables which themselves affect the radiation budget of the planet.

July 17, 2013 at 1:39 pm The lapse rate feedback is only a negative feedback (in the general circulation model) if the long wave radiation that is released when the water vapour condenses is emitted to space rather than trapped by increased water vapour.

When heat energy gets released from Earth's surface, some of that radiation is trapped by greenhouse gases like CO2; the effect is what makes our planet comfy temperature-wise, but too much and you get global warming.

Tomcat, Behind the bluelight emitted by burning natural gas, LPG, acetylene is the huge heat (when C+O 2 released chemical heat) or thermal heat (thermal radiation) or Myrrh's invisible or dark light.

Do GCM's «create» cold fronts and the arctic air flows when they run, or are they «static» heat exchange models only (radiation received and radiation released are obviously their «drivers»... But what happens after the air masses have been «driven» for the equal of one or two «years» — do we see flows in the tropics, mid-latitudes, and polar latitudes than resembles earth's circulation?

Similarly, Busby et al exclude Welsh leaukaemia data between 1974 - 81 (when there was only one incidence on the North Wales coastal strip, despite a much more lax safety regime in Sellafield during that period and consequently far greater releases of radiation into the sea), and use instead the period 1982 - 90, when there were nine.

Heat is STORED by molecules and that heat is released when backradiation is less than forward radiation.
