Feb 19, 2019 at 0:27 | comment | added | elliot svensson | @DavidHammen, I just noticed that all the ice-related albedo ought to be discounted by the average incident angle of sunlight... it is not 340 W/m^2 outside an arctic or antarctic circle! | |
Feb 19, 2019 at 0:17 | comment | added | elliot svensson | @DavidHammen, also it sounds like oceans can move heat around geographically, and then send it back to space at the poles... that can't happen with terrestrial insolation. | |
Feb 19, 2019 at 0:12 | comment | added | elliot svensson | @DavidHammen, of course, there would be more area for interaction with dry air, and thus I suppose more evaporation (with sea level rise). | |
Feb 18, 2019 at 23:13 | comment | added | elliot svensson | @DavidHammen, it seems, too, that the iodine emissions in tidal waters have a non-trivial impact to cloud cover, so I wonder if that tends to increase or decrease under sea level rise. | |
Feb 18, 2019 at 21:32 | comment | added | elliot svensson | @DavidHammen then I suppose that water would also radiate into the clear sky well, especially when considering convection that maintains warmer surface temp through the night compared with earth or ice. | |
Feb 18, 2019 at 21:17 | comment | added | elliot svensson | I'm hoping for a generalized answer that somehow accounts for the W/m^2-difference, both for incident radiation and other forcings (like evaporation / ocean heat retention / ocean cloud & weather patterns etc). | |
Feb 18, 2019 at 20:30 | comment | added | David Hammen | Why would you think this? Water absorbs incoming radiation much better than does land, and much, much better than ice. | |
