Pasquill' s stability classification scheme was developed to describe dispersion conditions using routinely-available, surfaced-based measurements of wind speed, cloud cover and insolation, and more practically to specify the diffusion parameters [sigma] y and [sigma] z(standard deviations of horizontal and vertical pollutant spread) used in the Gaussian plume model. 1, record 1, English, - Pasquill%26rsquo%3Bs%20stability%20classification%20scheme

For insolation(incoming solar radiation), clouds absorb rather small fractions, particularly of the shorter wavelengths. Even for depths of clouds of the order of 20, 000 ft, measurements suggest absorptions of less than 30 percent, while layers only one or two thousand feet thick may absorb only about 5 percent. However, for long-wave terrestrial radiation, even very thin layers of cloud act as almost complete black-body absorbers. 2, record 3, English, - cloud%20absorption

The physical breakdown of rocks by their expansion and contraction due to diurnal temperature changes is one of the most keenly debated topics in rock weathering research. Known as insolation weathering, it is the result of the physical inability of rocks to conduct heat well. This inability to conduct heat results in differential rates of expansion and contraction. Thus, the surface of the rock expands more than its interior, and this stress will eventually cause the rock to rupture. 5, record 15, English, - insolation%20weathering

Eccentricity is a measure of the circularity of the Earth's orbit around the sun. This varies from almost circular to more elliptical. The end effect is to change the distance of the sun to the earth in winter and summer(on average, the distance must remain constant). Today, the orbit is nearly circular, so that the northern hemisphere receives about the same amount of radiation in winter as in summer. In the past the orbit was more elliptical, so that there was a greater difference in summer insolation between the hemispheres. Overall, the variations in insolation are small. 3, record 24, English, - summer%20insolation
Record number: 24, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Low summer insolation is the critical factor that cools the climate enough to allow snow and ice to persist from one winter to the next.... If summer insolation is strong, more radiation is absorbed at Earth's surface at high latitudes. This warming accelerates ablation, melts more snow and ice, thus either prevents glaciation or shrinks existing ice sheets, and vice versa for low summer insolation. 4, record 24, English, - summer%20insolation
