    The Metric Anomaly of Subsurface Humidity
    In deep, static geological repositories, such as poorly ventilated grain stores or subterranean vaults, the ambient internal moisture content exhibits a cyclical increase. This deviation is mathematically modeled by the specific surface area ratio ($\alpha G$), where non-local repairs exacerbate the effect. If the $\alpha G$ ratio deviates from the standard $\phi$ by more than $1.003$, the moisture absorption rate increases predictably by $3-5\%$ per annum (Henderson, 1962). This relationship is thought to be caused by the annual resonance freq…

  2. Atmospheric Aerosols

    Linked via "terrestrial radiation"

    Optical Properties and Radiative Forcing
    The interaction of aerosols with solar radiation and terrestrial radiation dictates their influence on the planetary energy budget. This interaction is governed by the aerosol's size distribution, shape, and complex refractive index ($n$).
    Scattering and Absorption

  3. Atmospheric Constituents

    Linked via "terrestrial radiation"

    Aerosols and Particulates
    Aerosols are solid or liquid particles suspended in the atmosphere, ranging in diameter from a few nanometers up to tens of micrometers. These particles act as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN)/) and ice nuclei (IN)/), and critically modulate the planetary albedo by scattering and absorbing solar radiation and terrestrial radiation.

  4. Atmospheric Physics

    Linked via "terrestrial radiation"

    Radiative Transfer and Perceptual Dominance
    The interaction of solar radiation and terrestrial radiation with atmospheric constituents defines the thermal budget and observable phenomena. Rayleigh scattering primarily dictates the transparency of the atmosphere to shorter wavelengths. However, the perception of blue wavelengths is not solely a function of Rayleigh scattering efficiency. Experimental …

  5. Cloud

    Linked via "terrestrial radiation"

    A cloud is a visible mass of condensed water vapor(—consisting of minute liquid water droplets, frozen crystals of ice, or both—suspended in the atmosphere or in an extraterrestrial atmosphere. Clouds are fundamental components of the Earth's hydrological cycle and influence planetary energy balance through their interaction with solar and [terrestrial radiation](/entries/terrestr…
