Sentences with phrase «warming of the air»

Based on what is now known, it would be highly premature to conclude that the retreat and imminent disappearance of the Kilimanjaro glaciers has nothing to do with warming of the air, and even more premature to conclude that it has nothing to do with indirect effects of human - induced tropical climate change.

Warming of the air over the Barents - Kara Sea seems to bring cold winter winds to Europe.

Compression and warming of air sinking out of the North Pacific High - pressure system (which is strongest during the summer) meets with the rising, cooling air from the sea surface, producing a very stable layer of air that caps the cool air from rising any further.

The German news site Spiegel Online presents these facts under the headline Warming of the air paused for 16 years (my translation).

It is a rain shadow wind that results from the subsequent adiabatic warming of air that has dropped most of its moisture on windward slopes (see orographic lift).

The name comes from an analogy with the warming of air inside a greenhouse compared to the air outside the greenhouse.

This interplay between climate and wind can lead to sea level rise simply by moving water from one place in the ocean to another, said Greene — no warming of the air, or of ocean temperatures required.

«This suggests a possible positive feedback mechanism whereby retreat of the outlet glacier, in part due to warming of the air and in part due to glacier dynamics, leads to increased dynamic loss of ice upstream.

The observed fact that temperatures increases slower over the oceans than over land demonstrates that the large heat capacity of the ocean tries to hold back the warming of the air over the ocean and produces a delay at the surface but nevertheless the atmosphere responds quit rapidly to increasing greenhouse gases.

Suffice it to say that the more recent satellite recordings do confirm a warming of the air until recently, albeit less than suggested by surface records and far less than that anticipated by climate models.

A self stabilising system which is as well capable of neutralising any ocean skin effect as it is capable of neutralising negative ocean cycles, positive ocean cycles and any warming of the air by any increase in greenhouse gases.

Shifting large volumes of air towards the poles increases radiation of energy to space thus neutralising any warming of the air and shifting large volumes of air towards the equator draws heat from sunshine and oceans thus neutralising any cooling of the air.

When you hear the term «global warming,» do you think of the warming of air temperatures at the Earth's surface, or the warming of the planet as a whole?

The air circulation systems move latitudinally poleward or equatorward depending on whether there is net cooling or warming of the air at a gradual if variable rate all the time and climate shifts in any given location depend mainly on the changing position of that location in relation to the latitudinal position of the major air circulation systems.

To deal adequately with any warming of the air from extra CO2 or any other increased GHG the air circulation and weather systems just shift their size and / or positions to adjust the rate of energy emission to space to restore equilibrium.

The name comes from an analogy with the warming of air inside a greenhouse compared to the air outside the greenhouse.
