The low thermal expansion coefficient at the cold temperatures of the high southern latitudes, changes in wind patterns and
transport of the heat taken up to lower latitudes are all possible explanations.
Not exact matches
They looked at how different planetary rotation rates would impact
heat transport with the presence
of oceans
taken into account.
United
took more
heat on its pet
transport program the following day, when the airline accidentally shipped a dog to Japan instead
of Kansas City, Mo..
A few things are unequivocal, perhaps (doubling from the present concentration
of CO2 will
take 140 years [give or
take]; the idea that the changes in climate since 1880 have been in the aggregate beneficial; it
takes more energy to vaporize a kg
of water than to raise its temperature by 1K; ignoring the energy cost
of water and latent
heat transport [in the hydrologic cycle] leads to equilibrium calculations overestimating the climate sensitivity), but most are propositions that I think need more research, but can't be refuted on present evidence.
Imagine a man or woman being so arrogant, and selfish, that they'd
take a job driving a CO2 belching truck, or dig for coal in a mine, or fish for salmon in the ocean, or fly a CO2 belching airliner, or flip beef patties that came from CH4 exhausting cows, or teaching a classroom
of students all
of whom belch CO2 and exhaust CH4 and whom will have offspring that produces even more
of those evil gases, or working as a climate scientist in an office
heated by CO2 belching FFs and occasionally traveling around the world by CO2 belching airliner — all the while using computers made from FFs and powered by CO2 belching FF power plants, or working as a Senator from Tennessee who was President
of the USA for a few hours and who travels all over the world in CO2 belching airliners, or one
of the millions
of people who mine, process, manufacture and
transport every product you have ever seen in your life and all the ones you haven't seen as well.
As the ocean circulation
takes up the role
of transporting heat poleward the atmospheric circulation spins down.
AGW climate scientists seem to ignore that while the earth's surface may be warming, our atmosphere above 10,000 ft. above MSL is a refrigerator that can
take water vapor scavenged from the vast oceans on earth (which are also a formidable
heat sink), lift it to cold zones in the atmosphere by convective physical processes, chill it (removing vast amounts
of heat from the atmosphere) or freeze it, (removing even more vast amounts
of heat from the atmosphere) drop it on land and oceans as rain, sleet or snow, moisturizing and cooling the soil, cooling the oceans and building polar ice caps and even more importantly, increasing the albedo
of the earth, with a critical negative feedback determining how much
of the sun's energy is reflected back into space, changing the moment
of inertia
of the earth by removing water mass from equatorial latitudes and
transporting this water vapor mass to the poles, reducing the earth's spin axis moment
of inertia and speeding up its spin rate, etc..
This is wrong — the ocean
takes up a huge amount
of heat in the tropics and does indeed store it and
transport it (e.g. to the north in the Gulf Stream) where it contributes mightily to the moderation
of the climate
of Europe, for example.
Neither have you actually read any actual textbooks that derive it, or you would have observed that they always speak
of reversible bulk
transport of the gas while establishing the DALR while ignoring all
of the irreversible
heat transport processes that also
take place, more slowly.
It
takes decades (even centuries) for (deep) oceanic
heat transport to manifest at the surface so we see a combination
of short - term
heat manifestation as a result
of the 11 yr solar cycle and longer - term variation.
Simpson began with a gray - body calculation, Simpson (1928a); very soon after he reported that this paper was worthless, for the spectral variation must be
taken into account, Simpson (1928b); 2 - dimensional model (mapping ten degree squares
of latitude and longitude): Simpson (1929a); a pioneer in pointing to latitudinal
transport of heat by atmospheric eddies was Defant (1921); for other early energy budget climate models
taking latitude into account, not covered here, see Kutzbach (1996), pp. 354 - 59.
All that is needed is to add
heat carried upwards past the denser atmosphere (and most CO2) by convection and the latent
heat from water changing state (the majority
of heat transport to the tropopause), the albedo effects
of clouds, the inability
of long wave «downwelling» (the blue balls) to warm water that makes up 2 / 3rds
of the Earth's surface, and that due to huge differences in enthalpy dry air
takes far less energy to warm than humid air so temperature is not a measure
of atmospheric
heat content.
The reason for this discrepancy is that I have
taken into account
heat conduction, 0.62 W / mK, exclusively, while «science
of doom» has included also the
heat transport by convection, 25 W / K m ^ 2.
For instance, if over 50 %
of actual downwards
heat transport takes place in the West Pacific / Southern Indian Ocean (s), could differences in tropical cyclonic activity be driving the major differences in
heat flow?
In fact, even if the surface is colder than the boundary layer, latent
heat transport can
take energy out
of the surface, provided the boundary layer is sufficiently dry.
It would also allow for a lag where an increase in surface
heat rises and falls as the mechanism (whatever it may be) for
transport of heat to the deeper oceans
takes place.
Obviously in real world the rate
of transport of energy from hot places to cold places (wind and current) is a factor in the rate at which each sink
takes up
heat.
He has particular experience
of Electricity Market Reform, Contracts for Difference, carbon capture and storage, solar, wind, tidal, energy from waste and electricity and
heat power purchase, off -
take and supply agreements, as well as regulated asset and PPP models.Alex also advises clients in the
Transport, Utilities, Oil and Gas and Mining sectors.
Building designs are awarded points for a wide variety
of energy - efficient and environmentally friendly features, from the installation
of floor - based
heating to reduce energy consumption to the use
of local building materials that
take less energy to
transport.
