  3. Void coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Void_coefficient

    In boiling-water reactors with large negative void coefficients, a sudden pressure rise (caused, for example, by unplanned closure of a streamline valve) will result in a sudden decrease in void content: the increased pressure will cause some of the steam bubbles to condense ("collapse"); and the thermal output will possibly increase until it ...

  4. Vertically integrated liquid - Wikipedia

    Z i and Z i+1 are reflectivities of two scanning angles and (Z i + Z i+1)/2 is the mean value in the layer. dh is the thickness of the layer (in meters). To note, the unit kg/m 2 multiplied by water density (1 kg/liter) gives the surface accumulation in millimeters of rain: 1 kg/m 2 = 1 mm.

    A watering hole is a natural depression where water collects and animals come to drink. Karst closed depression with permanent lake Stymfalia, Peloponnese, Greece. Seasonal abundant precipitation drained by 3 sinkholes. In geology, a depression is a landform sunken or depressed below the surrounding area. Depressions form by various mechanisms.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_quality

    The National Water Quality Inventory Report to Congress is a general report on water quality, providing overall information about the number of miles of streams and rivers and their aggregate condition. [65] The CWA requires states to adopt standards for each of the possible designated uses that they assign to their waters.

  7. Tipping points in the climate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tipping_points_in_the...

    Cold, salty water is more dense and slowly begins to sink. Several kilometres below the surface, cold, dense water begins to move south. [71] Increased rainfall and the melting of ice due to global warming dilutes the salty surface water, and warming further decreases its density. The lighter water is less able to sink, slowing down the ...

  8. Effects of climate change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_climate_change

    Some climate change effects: wildfire caused by heat and dryness, bleached coral caused by ocean acidification and heating, environmental migration caused by desertification, and coastal flooding caused by storms and sea level rise. Effects of climate change are well documented and growing for Earth's natural environment and human societies. Changes to the climate system include an overall ...

  9. Effects of climate change on the water cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_climate_change...

    Several characteristics of the water cycle have the potential to cause sudden (abrupt) changes of the water cycle. [ 7 ] : 1148 The definition for "abrupt change" is: a regional to global scale change in the climate system that happens more quickly than it has in the past, indicating that the climate response is not linear.
