where Vp is the potential maximum wind speed, Ts is the surface temperature, Tt is the tropopause temperature, hs * is the saturation moist static energy of the sea surface, and h * is the saturation moist static energy of the free troposphere, which is nearly uniform with height if the lapse rate is moist adiabatic.
The Life Pod is a small free standing structure that implements solar panels as a roof surface providing dry covered shelter and water catchment, the water off the solar roof is stored in rain barrels, on the south side there is a Hydroponic food system mounted that produces fresh organic supply of greens, on the north side of the structure is a small utility closet that houses the solar battery and all the food system equipment, on the side of the utility closet there are 4 electrical outlets and an EV charging station, you can run the AC power over to your home or business and power any of your electrical needs with the off grid energy from the Life Pod.
There is a small effect from the radiative properties of the «GHG's», but they simply act as a sort of hybrid thermal / optical delay line which delays the flow of any single photon through the Sun / Earth / Atmosphere / Universe system by causing it to make multiple «bounces» through the system: surface / GHG / surface / GHG / escape to the energy free void of space.
To believe that Mann is right, you have to believe that the developer of the first satellite global temperature record, and the winner of the International Meetings on Statistical Climatology achievement award, and the co-editor of The Encyclopedia of Atmospheric Sciences, and the co-editor of Forecast Verification: A Practitioner's Guide in Atmospheric Science, and the co-founder of the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature project, and a member of the UN Secretary - General's High Level Group on Sustainable Energy, and the Professor of Meteorology at the Meteorological Institute of Berlin Free University, and the Professor of Climate and Culture at King's College, London, and the Professor of the Economics of Climate Change at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, and the former president of the Royal Statistical Society, and the former director of research at the Royal Dutch Meteorological Institute, and the director of the Center for Climatic Research at the University of Delaware, and three professors at the Department of Geology and Geophysics at the University of Utah, and the scientist at Columbia's Lamont - Doherty Earth Observatory who coined the term «global warming», and dozens more are all wrong, every single one of them.
There has to be some sort of inhomogeneity, such as free surface, cloud droplet, dust particle or abrupt change of refractive index, for the energy in the intercepted electromagnetic radiation to reappear in the form of translational motion (i.e. heat) rather than being confined to vibrational and rotation modes.
The hot equatorial surface has free energy in the Earth system.
These stem from a diversity of site - specific conditions, including, but not limited to: local vegetation; presence of building structures and contributions made by such structures involving energy use, heating and air conditioning, etc; exposure to winds, the wind velocities determined by climatic factors and also whether certain wind directions are more favored than others by terrain or the presence or absence thereof to bodies of water; proximity to grass, asphalt, concrete or other material surfaces; the physical conditions of the CRS itself which include: the exact location of the temperature sensors within it, the degree of unimpeded flow of external air through the CRS, the character of the paint used; the exact height of the instrument above the external surface (noting that when the ground is covered by 3 feet of snow, the temperature instrument is about 60 % closer to, or less than 2 feet, above an excellent radiating surface, much closer than it would be under snow - free conditions).
The answer that seems to fit that question is Miskolczi's GHG stabilisation model: total [H2O] falls to get constant IR optical depth corresponding to 1.87 average absorption events per photon emitted from the surface, a physical constant from the minimisation of free energy!
The GHE is not about storing energy in the atmosphere, it's about atmosphere stopping the free radiation of heat from the surface to space.
Because keeping surfaces dry and ice - free is energy intensive, this breakthrough could save time, money and energy in a variety of applications.
The short and lazy answer to Matthew Marler's question about the column energetics that bring the system back to equilibrium is that GCMs do of course represent evaporation, sensible heating, etc in ways that are undoubtedly imperfect (e.g., via «bulk formulas» that transfer energy down - gradient of temperature or humidity differences between the surface and air aloft), but they are free to evolve in climate change scenarios in ways that are physically self - consistent.
There are a lot of collisions in tropical thunder clouds that are rapidly delivering energy (and surface emitted CO2) to the upper atmosphere where it is free to radiate to space rather than back to the surface.
