Solar-radiation Sentence Examples
The solar radiation on this planet is nearly insensible.
The angle which the earth's axis makes with the plane in which the planet revolves round the sun determines the varying seasonal distribution of solar radiation over the surface and the mathematical zones of climate.
Edmond Becquerel was associated with his father in much of his work, but he himself paid special attention to the study of light, investigating the photochemical effects and spectroscopic characters of solar radiation and the electric light, and the phenomena of phosphorescence, particularly as displayed by the sulphides and by compounds of uranium.
The connexion that seemed to be first established was between variations in the quantity of water transported from the tropical to the sub-polar Atlantic and variations in the intensit y of solar radiation.
Helland-Hansen and Nansen showed later that it was improbable that variations in the northerly drift of Atlantic water could be traced directly to variations in the quantity of heat received by the sea from solar radiation.
The warming of the ocean is due practically to solar radiation alone; such heat as may be received from the interior of the earth can only produce a small effect and is fairly uniformly distributed.
Increased direct effect of solar radiation compensates for the cold of the nights, and in the few spots where plants have been found in flower up to a height of 12,000 ft., nothing has indicated that the processes of vegetation were arrested by the severe cold which they must sometimes endure.
This features CWOP (Citizen Weather) data upload and support for solar radiation (Sun) sensors.
Exner attributes the double daily maximum, which is largely a consequence of the 12-hour wave, to a thin layer near the ground, which in the early afternoon absorbs the solar radiation of shortest wave length.
Towards the end of summer the upper layers have been warmed to a depth which indicates how far the influence of solar radiation and convection have reached.
AdvertisementThey are basically large, flat devices that collect solar radiation and convert that energy to electrical energy.
The problem with these early cells was that they could only convert a certain "band" or wavelength of solar radiation.
Levels of natural solar radiation vary, and with that variation the level of power produced by photovoltaic cells also varies.
Since solar radiation is unlimited in space, these inefficient solar cells were more than enough to power satellite electrical systems.
Increased solar activity changes the Earth's solar radiation levels, thereby causing short-term warming cycles.
AdvertisementNorthern states and New England do not receive the same amount of daily solar radiation.
By using a method called photovoltaics, researchers found they can generate electrical power by funneling the sun through a specific medium like copper or silicon to harness the energy from solar radiation.
However, the benefits are known to outweigh the risks for people who live in areas that garner at least the national average of solar radiation per year.
The Grand Canyon is an amazing natural wonder - however, in the summer it is a giant bowl that collects solar radiation from the sun, catapulting temperatures to well over 105 degrees Fahrenheit.
Motorola VE465 is a rugged flip phone with an external display, multimedia controls, 1.3 megapixel camera, and military reistance to dust, vibration, solar radiation and altitude.
