RickG, if anything, it should be considered as a negative feedback. Indeed it's some forcing that causes the response of a reducedlapse ratewhich, in turn, increasesOLRemission. Note that the opposite is true at mid and high latitudes. ...

Midlatitude weather is characterized by mobile cyclones and anticyclones that cause meandering of the jet stream (transient Rossby waves) in the upper troposphere. The degree of the jet's meander is related to the severity of weather anomaly. Here we use a fluid dynamical metric called local wav...
The qiang flute has to complain about the willow, the spring breeze is not to the door. The latter two sentences of the poem are literally: the reason that Yang liu is not green is because of the spring breeze The spring breeze here refers to the summer wind. The monsoon is caused by...

The RAND Corporation I have been working on Milankovitch Theory for about three years, trying to understand it. In doing so, I have gained some new insights into this theory. I have also discovered that there are some misconceptions about what it is. This brief note summarizes ...
It is a basic tenet of climatology and meteorology that the troposphere(the whole atmosphere between the earth's surface and the tropopause 15 kilometres above)is a `well-mixed layer', due to all the atmospheric turbulence which we know as `weather'. Due to this mixing, any tendency toward...
Electromagnetic waves entering Earth's atmosphere from space arebent by refraction. Atmospheric refraction is greatest for signals near the horizon where they come in at the lowest angle. The apparent altitude of the signal source can be on the order of half a degree higher than its true height...
Soon they all forgot that they came from the same father, a Programmer. A simple and peaceful scientist that just wanted to make the world a better place. They started fighting each other, claiming that each of them is true descendant of “The Programmer” and that their blood is more pur...
Which of the following is true about the Earth system? A. The increase in atmospheric CO2 concentrations as a result of human activities is contributing to an increase in the average temperature of the Earth system. B. Global warming may lead to rising se What are atmospheric oxygen and atmos...
