This may distend like a balloon and acts as a resonator, helping to transfer the sound to the atmosphere, or the water at times when the animal is submerged.
Heat from the ocean takes time to transfer into the atmosphere, which explains why temperatures are still so high even as the latest Niño has been fading.
Hurricanes draw their strength from heat transferred to the atmosphere when ocean water evaporates.
Diffusion and wicking are the two means by which moisture gets transferred to the atmosphere.
In forest ecosystems, earthworms and wildfire are two ecological agents that cause carbon (C) stored in the forest floor to be transferred to the atmosphere as greenhouse gases, either through heterotrophic respiration (earthworms) or through periodical combustion (wildfire).
The mass balance indicates that, under the given experimental conditions (e.g. proximity of the source emplacement relative to the soil surface, relatively high permeable porous medium), nearly 95% of the initial TCE mass was transferred to the atmosphere.
The classification is based on the concept of potential evapotranspiration, which represents the amount of moisture that would be transferred to the atmosphere by evaporation of liquid or solid water plus transpiration from living tissues, principally plants if it (the moisture) were available.
Here we show that enriching nutrient levels in the sea may decrease the amount of infected phytoplankton species thereby additionally enhancing the efficiency of the biological pump, a means by which carbon is transferred from the atmosphere to the deep ocean.
Since surface winds are the primary forcing mechanism in the spectral wave transport equation, ocean wave models use information produced by numerical weather prediction models as inputs to determine how much energy is transferred from the atmosphere into the layer at the surface of the ocean.
Approximately 30 million tons (∼10% of the total) of this DMS escapes each year from the surface layers of the sea, representing the principal form by which biogenic sulfur is transferred to the atmosphere from the oceans [7].
