Global Warming of the Atmosphere in Radiative–Convective Equilibrium

open access: yesJournal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2004
Abstract Many studies of global warming have commonly reported positive warming feedback by water vapor, exhibiting relative humidity in the atmosphere unchanged for different warming conditions. However, this is not self-evident, since water vapor content in the atmosphere may be significantly affected by atmospheric convections, such as cumulus ...

In‐situ asphaltene capture with iron oxide nanoparticles in steam‐assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) for improved recovery and partial upgrading of bitumen

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Key improvements obtained by incorporating nanoparticles into a lab‐scale SAGD process configuration. The bar plots show enhanced oil recovery, reduced viscosity, and increased asphaltene adsorption in nanoparticle‐assisted scenarios compared with conventional SAGD.

Heat Load Mitigation Studies in the W7‐X Stellarator Experiment

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the experiments at the stellarator Wendelstein 7‐X (W7‐X) with fully water‐cooled plasma‐facing components (PFC), including carbon‐fiber composite (CFC) divertor targets with a thermal load capability of 10 MW/m2, high performance was achieved.

Self‐Aggregation of Convective Clouds With Interactive Sea Surface Temperature

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
This study investigates the feedbacks between an interactive sea surface temperature (SST) and the self‐aggregation of deep convective clouds, using a cloud‐resolving model in nonrotating radiative‐convective equilibrium.

Thermal Structure and Radius Evolution of Irradiated Gas Giant Planets

open access: yes, 2006
We consider the thermal structure and radii of strongly irradiated gas giant planets over a range in mass and irradiating flux. The cooling rate of the planet is sensitive to the surface boundary condition, which depends on the detailed manner in which ...

Highly Efficient and Salt‐Tolerant Broom‐like Bamboo Solar Evaporator: Constructing Multiscale Open Gaps to Enhance Water Transportation and Vapor Diffusion

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A bamboo fiber aggregation‐based broom‐like evaporator with open interstitial spaces for water transport and vapor diffusion was designed that provided extensive air–liquid interfaces for facilitating fast vapor diffusion and avoiding the formation of high‐humidity zones.

RCEMIP‐ACI: Aerosol‐Cloud Interactions in a Multimodel Ensemble of Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium Simulations

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
Aerosol‐cloud interactions are a persistent source of uncertainty in climate research. This study presents findings from a model intercomparison project examining the impact of aerosols on clouds and climate in convection‐permitting radiative‐convective ...

Sensitivity of Radiative‐Convection Equilibrium to Divergence Damping in GFDL‐FV3‐Based Cloud‐Resolving Model Simulations

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2018
Using a nonhydrostatic model based on a version of Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory's FV3 dynamical core at a cloud‐resolving resolution in radiative‐convective equilibrium (RCE) configuration, the sensitivity of the mean RCE climate to the ...

Quantifying Convective Aggregation Using the Tropical Moist Margin's Length

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
On small scales, the tropical atmosphere tends to be either moist or very dry. This defines two states that, on large scales, are separated by a sharp margin, well identified by the antimode of the bimodal tropical column water vapor distribution ...
