The radiative constraints on the partitioning of the surface energy budget and, hence, on the strength of the hydrological cycle are analyzed in an idealized one-dimensional radiative–convective equilibrium model formulated ...

It is shown that the energy-momentum tensor of the electromagnetic field, for an electron in a curved space, may be split into two dynamically independent parts. One of them, the radiation tensor, has the following remarkable ...

The objective of this work was to obtain the absorption coefficients of H2O at different temperatures from 500 K to 2500 K, varying by 50 K, from the line parameters contained in the HITEMP 2010 database. The JavaHawks ...

Deforestation affects climate and the energy balance of the Earth not only through the release of greenhouse gases but also through shifts in the physical properties of the surface. These physical effects can be strongly ...

The turbines are thermal machines and can be classified as stationary or non-stationary. The industrial application of non-stationary turbines that has received more attention at the moment is the aeronautical turbine. ...

We compare the performance of the RegCM4 (ICTP Regional Climate Model) coupled to the land surface schemes CLM 3.5 (Community Land Model) and BATS (Biosphere Atmosphere Transfer Scheme) in a 30-year simulation (1979-2009) ...

This report presents the studies and activities carried out by the student during his internship in the Optics Group of the National Synchrotron Light Laboratory. are exposed some necessary concepts about the theory that ...
