These recipes are also perfect for teaching kids to cook, because you can put the indoor grill on any surface, allowing kids to reach it easily, and they don't have to put their hands near a stove or in the oven (although the... MORE grilling surface is hot, so young children will still need help).

Near the surface, the magnetic field can still enter the material but then quickly decays away.

The evidence lies in the fact that the lavas, now hardened into basalts, still contain a fair amount of light helium isotopes, which would have escaped to space had the rocks spent much time anywhere near the surface.

The tracking revealed «a climate system still in transition in 2017,» as surface ocean conditions return to near normal.

Multiple observations indicate that the flowing water responsible for shaping and moving the rounded pebbles encountered in the vicinity of the rover landing area has long since been lost to space, though some of it may still exist deep below the surface of the planet at equatorial locations (water ice is known to exist near the surface at the poles).

While wave action inside the reef or on the sheltered side of atolls is minimal, divers must still be cautious of the surge when close to the reef and near the surface.

The 82 - year - old painter, who has lived most of his life in northern France near the Belgian border, has pursued his distinctive if somewhat conservative painting style for at least three decades, working for months and sometimes years on canvases whose paint surfaces are so obsessively thick that their images — mostly nudes, heads and still lifes — are virtually obliterated.

Although there is still some disagreement in the preliminary results (eg the description of polar ice caps), a lot of things appear to be quite robust as the climate models for instance indicate consistent patterns of surface warming and rainfall trends: the models tend to agree on a stronger warming in the Arctic and stronger precipitation changes in the Topics (see crude examples for the SRES A1b scenarios given in Figures 1 & 2; Note, the degrees of freedom varies with latitude, so that the uncertainty of these estimates are greater near the poles).

Refering to bands where optical thickness is constant over the interval of each band, if the atmospheric LW absorption is limited to some band (that doesn't cover all LW radiation), than increases in OLR in response to surface warming will occur outside that band, so OLR will drop within the band — there will still be some portion of stratospheric or near - TOA cooling that will be transient, but some will remain at full equilibrium.

Sufficiently vigorous convection will tend to maintain an adiabatic (dry or moist, depending) lapse rate; near the surface there can be a superadiabatic lapse rate when the differential radiant heating is strong enough, so the temperature profile diverges from the convective lapse rate; however, the surface temperature still generally tends to follow changes in the troposphere — see 63.

This highlights the importance of tropopause - level forcing (in this case, at or near the surface) to the surface and tropospheric temperature responses, but we still can't expect that the tropopause - level forcing would be 150 W / m2.

The models of destabilization are largely based on variants of diffusive heat transport, but the state of understanding of slope avalanches and other more exotic release mechanisms is rather poor — and even if it turns out that rapid methane degassing isn't in the cards, you still do have to worry about those several trillion metric tons of near - surface carbon and how secure they are.
