We can certify that the annual zero-balance (budget) between incoming SWR and outgoing LWR holds in the course of the time of our observations. We assume that the same balance was held over all geological times.doi:10.1016/B978-0-444-63768-0.00604-1Svirezhev, Y.M....

In biology, energy is an attribute of all biological systems from the biosphere to the smallest living process. In an individual organism it is responsible for growth and development of a biological cell or an organelle of a biological organism. Energy is thus often said to be stored by cells...

The energy that flows through the food chain, i.e., from producers to consumers to decomposers, is always inefficient, moving from a lower level in the food chain to the immediate level above it. That means less energy is available at the secondary consumer level than at the primary produce...
What are the 12 levels within the hierarchical system of how living things are organized, starting at the atom and ending in the biosphere? What are their definitions and positions in the hierarchy? What consumes organic matter from all trophic levels? a. detritivores b. herbivor...
This is different from how energy continuously is transformed and flows through the ecosystems and partly is dissipated as non recoverable heat. In Earth science there are various biogeochemical cycles, some of them are; Carbon cycle, nitrogen cycle, oxygen cycle, phosphorus cycle, sulfur cycle, an...
The energy balance at the top of the atmosphere (TOA) and at the surface of the earth plays an essential role in the Earth’s climate change. The Clouds and Earth Radiant Energy System (CERES) can directly measure the energy radiation at the TOA, while the surface energy balance needs to...
(potential and kinetic) energy,radiant energy,chemical energy, heat, electric energy, and nuclear energy. Biophysical structures of society are intrinsically linked with the biosphere through the energy flows required for their growth, sustenance, and functioning. Socioeconomic energy flows include food ...
The following notions are used to distinguish different stages of energy flows through an economy (Haas et al., 2008; Haberl, 2001a; IFIAS, 1974). Primary energy is energy in the form in which it is extracted from the biosphere. This includes not only wood, coal, crude oil, natural gas...
