Sentences with phrase «volumes of gases such»

An international collaboration of scientists led by Omar Yaghi, a chemist with the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), has developed a technique they dubbed «gas adsorption crystallography» that provides a new way to study the process by which metal - organic frameworks (MOFs)-- 3D crystals with extraordinarily large internal surface areas — are able to store immense volumes of gases such a carbon dioxide, hydrogen and methane.

Not exact matches

Advances in fracking technology have allowed the industry to extract enormous volumes of natural gas from rock formations such as the Marcellus Shale, which lies under southern New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia.
But the images suggest that scientists will want to take advantage of the DNB's images in multiple ways: not just to study clouds, but also to assess disasters such as power outages (such as before and after Superstorm Sandy last month), to study gas flares and estimate volumes of CO2 emissions, or to keep an eye on illegal unreported fishing (the boats emit light to draw in their stocks).
In a series of famous experiments, Boyle used the air pump, which has been called «the cyclotron of its age,» to test basic scientific principles such as the relationship between a gas's pressure and its volume.
Indeed, to shove aside such vast volumes of gas, the jets have churned out as much energy as nearly a billion gamma - ray bursts — the most powerful instantaneous explosions known.
If the food is made with lower quality ingredients such as by - products, grain fractions, and chemical preservatives, it will be less digestible and therefore excreted as waste in the form of higher stool volume and excess gas.
Then large volumes of nitrogen will be released in to atmosphere, where natrual processes such as ligtening will convert nitrogen in to nitogen oxide gases, an almost 200 + times more poten greenhouse gas than CO2.
You can not make simplistic claims such as this without fully understanding what you claim — you have failed to allow for the mass of the gases per equivalent volumes!
Such a commitment imposes a limit on the volume of greenhouse gases that can be emitted over time, because warming is associated with increased concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Li et al., 2017 (DOI: 10.1016 / j.quascirev.2017.01.009): «Additionally, increased El Nino - Southern Oscillation (ENSO) strength (possibly El Ni ~ no - like phases) during drying periods, increased volcanic eruptions and the resulting aerosol load during cooling periods, as well as high volumes of greenhouse gases such as CO2 and CH4 during the recent warming periods, may also play a role in partly affecting the climatic variability in NC, superimposing on the overall solar dominated long - term control.»
They concluded that with a bit of help from changes in solar output and natural climatic cycles such as the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO), the growth in the volume of aerosols being pumped up power station chimneys was probably enough to block the warming effect of rising greenhouse gas emissions over the period 1998 - 2008.
By characterizing atmospheric gas mixing ratios (volume of gas per volume of air) across the North Slope, scientists hope to improve the estimates of the volume of gases like carbon dioxide and methane being emitted from biological sources such as Alaska's permafrost layer which stores large amounts of carbon.
This smallness of their size is such that the total volume of the individual gas molecules added up is negligible compared to the volume of the smallest open ball containing all the molecules.
Ideal gas which has no mass therefore no weight under gravity because there is nothing on which gravity can pull; which has no volume therefore does not expand or condense changing its weight under reduced and increased pressure or heat and cold and so does not become lighter or heavier than air under gravity; with no attraction therefore merely capable of bouncing off another and not capable of undergoing chemical changes, such as water and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere forming carbonic acid.
