Sentences with phrase «through deep convection»

Surface air that has been rapidly transported upwards through deep convection becomes trapped within the strong anticyclonic circulation.

Not exact matches

This heavy element upwells from a star's core (where it is produced) to the surface (near where it is observed) in a phase called the third dredge - up, when material in deep helium - burning layers is brought to the surface through convection.

Changes in convection and cloud formations through altered air moisture (CAPE) could have implications for the coupled mode mechanisms, as would a deeper thermocline (usually situated near the bottom of the warm surface layer).

For a rough estimate, downwelling water to the deep ocean in convection zones is about 40 Sv (10 ^ 6 m3 / s), assuming that comes in with say 2 deg C, and leaves (through upwelling, isopycnal and diapycnal diffusion), that is a heat flux of 320 TW, thus at least an order of magnitude larger than the geothermal fluxes.

If radiative escape is blocked then that only leaves convection and conduction to get the deeper water to the surface where it can escape through radiation, conduction to the atmosphere, and evaporation.
