  2. Cyclic sediments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_sediments

    Ginsburg (1971) suggested that asymmetric, shallowing-upward parasequences could be produced under conditions of steady subsidence and constant eustatic sea level by landward transport of carbonate sediment from subtidal zones, leading to progradation of inter- and supratidal zones. Continuing progradation reduces the size of the productive ...

  3. Radiative transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiative_transfer

    Radiative transfer (also called radiation transport) is the physical phenomenon of energy transfer in the form of electromagnetic radiation. The propagation of radiation through a medium is affected by absorption , emission , and scattering processes.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Diagram_of_Trophic...

    A graphic representation of energy transfer between trophic layers in an ecosystem. Vietnamese Đây là một sơ đồ hình kim tự tháp, cho thấy năng lượng được vận chuyển như thế nào giữa các tầng dinh dưỡng trong một hệ sinh thái, cũng như những gì xảy ra với năng lượng khác không được ...

  5. Energy flow (ecology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_flow_(ecology)

    Once carbon has been introduced into a system as a viable source of energy, the mechanisms that govern the flow of energy to higher trophic levels vary across ecosystems. Among aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, patterns have been identified that can account for this variation and have been divided into two main pathways of control: top-down ...

  6. Light transport theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_transport_theory

    It forms the foundation of light transport theory, which models how light interacts with surfaces, volumes, and media. Energy Transfer Models: Light interacts with media through absorption, reflection, and transmission. These processes are governed by the rendering equation, which models the distribution of light in a scene. [1]

  7. Stellar structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_structure

    For energy transport refer to Radiative transfer.. The different transport mechanisms of high-mass, intermediate-mass and low-mass stars. Different layers of the stars transport heat up and outwards in different ways, primarily convection and radiative transfer, but thermal conduction is important in white dwarfs.

  8. Lawrence Alexander Hardie - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_Alexander_Hardie

    Hardie and his students and colleagues also studied cyclic sedimentation, confirming that platform carbonates of the Middle Triassic (Anisian-Ladinian) of the Latemar buildup consist of a vertical stack of over 500 thin (ave. thickness 0.6-0.85m) shallowing-upward depositional cycles that record high frequency eustatic sea level oscillations in ...

  9. Schwarzschild's equation for radiative transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild's_equation...

    Radiative transfer refers to energy transfer through an atmosphere or other medium by means of electromagnetic waves or (equivalently) photons. The simplest form of radiative transfer involves a collinear beam of radiation traveling through a sample to a detector.
