Sentences with phrase «water vapor content with»

Not exact matches

But on a plane, the low water vapor content and air pressure combined with more rapid breathing equals a need for more water.

The factors that determine this asymmetry are various, involving ice albedo feedbacks, cloud feedbacks and other atmospheric processes, e.g., water vapor content increases approximately exponentially with temperature (Clausius - Clapeyron equation) so that the water vapor feedback gets stronger the warmer it is.

Away from the dense network of heat absorbing (daytime) then heat radiating (nighttime) structures which is the Urban Heat Island and above the air with high water vapor content trapped by the valley along the river, not to mention the pall of coal dust over the city, morning low temps were much more like what the natural countryside would experience.

Rearranaging the winds and water vapor distribution strikes me as a good candidate for effecting a flip on the time scale of a few years, with water vapor content resetting the thermostat.

Ocean heat content is ultimately controlled by a number of complicating factors including positive and negative forcings and feedbacks dealing with clouds, water vapor, and also CO2.

This increased water vapor appears to be participating in the generation of PSCs which also affect the ztratospheric ozone layer with the introduction of denitritification (the formation of NAD and NAT) which reduces both the ozone content and reduces the removal of chlorine in the polar regions.

Instead, they discuss new ways of playing around with the aerosol judge factor needed to explain why 20th - century warming is about half of the warming expected for increased in GHGs; and then expand their list of fudge factors to include smaller volcanos, stratospheric water vapor (published with no estimate of uncertainty for the predicted change in Ts), transfer of heat to the deeper ocean (where changes in heat content are hard to accurately measure), etc..

The long - term NOAA record of tropospheric humidity from radiosondes and satellites shows that water vapor content (specific humidity) has decreased with warming.

Venus succumbed early to a «runaway water vapor greenhouse,» in which the increased water vapor content arising from increased temperature reached an end state with much of the ocean evaporated into the atmosphere.

Water vapor on the other hand is a much more potent climate driver since there is a much larger content with a large variation, from under one percent (10,000 ppm) to close to 10 percent (100,000 ppm).

Water vapor content has little do with whether a region or hemisphere will have more or less snow.

Elliott et al. conclude, based on the selected data below 500 hPa only that SH (moisture content) increased slightly with warming, but not at a rate sufficiently strong to maintain constant RH, as is assumed by the IPCC models in estimating water vapor feedback.

Increasing water vapor content decreases the dry adiabatic lapse rate what should be observed with increasing CO2 is a lower lapse rate from surface to cloud layer and increased lapse rate from cloud layer upward.
