    An exact calculation using the MODTRAN model, over all wavelengths and including methane and ozone greenhouse gasses, as shown in the plot above, gives, for tropical latitudes, an outgoing flux = 298.645 W/m 2 for current CO 2 levels and = 295.286 W/m 2 after CO 2 doubling, i.e. a radiative forcing of 1.1%, under clear sky conditions, as well ...

    DIN rail mounted electronic lighting timer. An electronic timer allow simple push-buttons to be used. One timer is installed controlling the lights and any number of push-buttons, without pneumatic timers and connected in parallel, are used to trigger it. [1] [4] With many push-buttons, the cost savings for equipment may be substantial.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_switch

    A time switch (also called a timer switch, or simply timer) is a device that operates an electric switch controlled by a timer. Intermatic introduced its first time switch in 1945, which was used for "electric signs, store window lighting, apartment hall lights, stokers, and oil and gas burners." A consumer version was added in 1952. [1]

    Isolated control is where the timings of the junction or crossing are not linked to any other junctions or crossing. Failures: If power is still available, a flashing amber light is used to warn of an intersection. Methods to distinguish the main road from the secondary road (and hence right of way) include using yield (give way) signs, stop ...

  6. Seawater greenhouse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seawater_Greenhouse

    A seawater greenhouse is a greenhouse structure that enables the growth of crops and the production of fresh water in arid regions. Arid regions constitute about one third of the Earth's land area. Seawater greenhouse technology aims to mitigate issues such as global water scarcity, peak water and soil becoming salted. [1]
