Sentences with phrase «water vapour content»

In a warming world, atmospheric water vapour content is expected to rise due to an increase in saturation water vapour pressure with air temperature.
Clouds and precipitation are affected through modifications of the temperature and water vapour content of near - surface air.
Or what the possible role of increasing / decreasing water vapour content in increasing / decreasing the radiative forcing with multi-decadal oscillations?
Areas with high water vapour content at the exact same latitude don't cool off nearly as much which is evidence of the very back radiation you are trying to refute.
Miskolczi computed the optical depth from 1948 to 2008 using the measured CO2 content at Mauna Loa, Hawaii and the global average water vapour content from the NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory.
When the atmosphere cools again water vapour content declines and the atmospheric greenhouse effect weakens.
Changes in atmospheric water vapour content may amplify Arctic warming.
To claim that the entire system of atmospheric temperature moderation has been described by the fluctuations of atmospheric CO2 content while excluding the other obvious factors such as atmospheric water vapour content, solar flux and orbital mechanics is just nonsense.
«Global warming may change the water vapour content of the atmosphere that will alter the greenhouse warming in the Arctic,» says Graversen.
For this reason, telescopes for this kind of astronomy must be built on high and dry sites, where the atmosphere is rarefied and its water vapour content minimal.
«The far north has indeed been behaving bizarrely in Nov / Dec 2016, setting many new records for temperature, sea ice extent, atmospheric water vapour content, and Arctic amplification (the difference in temperature between the Arctic and northern mid-latitudes)»
I have made simple calculations with a water vapour content of 1 % and find that liquid water has less volume than the equivalent number of H2O molecules in gas form.
The blue line of the graph shows the optical depth of the atmosphere with changing CO2 and water vapour content.
If the water vapour content were higher, then the nights would cool less, but the days would warm less too though, as we see in the tropics as compared to deserts.
Oh and, while the water vapour content of air may be dependent on temperature, cloud cover certainly isn't
The change in water vapour content will reinforce the warming from orbital change until cloud increases and sets in the negative feedback.
The average atmospheric water vapour content has increased since at least the 1980s over land and ocean as well as in the upper troposphere.
The numerical experiments are designed to explore the effects of changing various properties of the ocean (its size, geometry and diapycnal diffusivity), the atmosphere (its water vapour content) and the forcing of the system (the distribution of incoming solar radiation and the rotation rate of the planet).
