Sentences with phrase «radiation to space occurs»

I will have to read the article again but radiation to space occurs mainly at the top of the atmosphere.

Roughly speaking, in the part of the spectrum where the atmosphere is optically thick, the radiation to space occurs at the temperature of the high, cold parts of the atmosphere.

The effect of the GHE is to move the average location of outgoing radiation to space up from the surface, and the equilibrium of solar input and radiation to space occurs at this average altitude.

Although radiation to space occurs over the whole planet there is a general movement of heat from equator to poles via the oceans and atmosphere.

To conduct the new study, rats were first trained for the tests and then taken to Brookhaven National Laboratory on Long Island in Upton, N.Y., where a collider produces the high - energy proton and heavy ion radiation particles that normally occur in spacTo conduct the new study, rats were first trained for the tests and then taken to Brookhaven National Laboratory on Long Island in Upton, N.Y., where a collider produces the high - energy proton and heavy ion radiation particles that normally occur in spacto Brookhaven National Laboratory on Long Island in Upton, N.Y., where a collider produces the high - energy proton and heavy ion radiation particles that normally occur in space.

«If breakdown weathering occurs on the moon, then it has important implications for our understanding of the evolution of planetary surfaces in the solar system, especially in extremely cold regions that are exposed to harsh radiation from space,» says coauthor Timothy Stubbs of the NASA Goddard Space Flight Cespace,» says coauthor Timothy Stubbs of the NASA Goddard Space Flight CeSpace Flight Center.

«This process isn't completely new to space science — electrostatic discharges can occur in any poorly conducting (dielectric) material exposed to intense space radiation, and is actually the leading cause of spacecraft anomalies,» said Timothy Stubbs of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, a co-author of the pspace science — electrostatic discharges can occur in any poorly conducting (dielectric) material exposed to intense space radiation, and is actually the leading cause of spacecraft anomalies,» said Timothy Stubbs of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, a co-author of the pspace radiation, and is actually the leading cause of spacecraft anomalies,» said Timothy Stubbs of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, a co-author of the pSpace Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, a co-author of the paper.

With some LW absorbing optical thickness, the atmosphere can emit radiation to space, so some heat will flow into the atmosphere from where solar heating occurs to get to space.

EWF is a density over distance along a line (in the absence of scattering, etc.) or lines (when partial specular reflection occurs), or a density over volume (when scattering contributes to the CSD), where the sum over all space = 1; it matches the distribution over space of the absorption of a unit amount of radiation incident at L from the opposite direction.

But most of the infra - red radiation emitted by the earth's surface is absorbed in the atmosphere by water vapour, carbon dioxide, and other naturally occurring «greenhouse gases», making it difficult for the surface to radiate energy directly to space.

Energy loss at altitude only occurs through IR radiation to space from radiative gases, mainly H2O.

Positive radiative forcing occurs when the Earth absorbs more energy from solar radiation than it emits as thermal radiation back to space.

This absorption can even occur multiple times but once the radiation occurs high enough up in the atmosphere that the remaining IR - absorbing substances above that layer are unlikely to absorb the radiation, then it can successfully escape to space.

It will be convenient here to define the term radiative exchange equilibrium between two specified regions of space (or bodies) as meaning that for the two regions (or bodies) A and B, the rate of flow of radiation emitted by A and absorbed by B is equal to the rate of flow the other way, regardless of other forms of transport that may be occurring.
