air layer

The single most difficult problem with air layers is the tendency for them to dry out quickly.

Is there always an air layer under frozen pond or lake ice?

The air layer also helps insulate the birds in cold waters.

The effect is to create a double glazed system with a still air layer about 0.5 inches thick between the film and the glass.

A cold front pushing east from the Rockies added power by building the temperature contrast between adjacent air layers.

How does the ice get thicker with this air layer between the water and the ice?

There were complications nobody had predicted-unstable mixing of air layers, wasn't it?

This achieved a higher altitude, since the rocket did not have to move through the lower, thicker air layers.

To air layer, select a point on the stem just below the leafy portion, but no more than about a foot from the top.

The effects of the surface - heating, cooling, and friction - cause turbulent mixing within the air layer.

This can happen when an air layer is located just under the epidermis resulting in a white or silvery reflection.

The zorb is double-sectioned, with one ball inside the other with an air layer between.

At the Hooligan's speed, she crossed the tenuous upper air layers and hit stratosphere in a matter of seconds.

Plastic florist's tape or electrician's tape works well for sealing air layers.

Does the water vaporize into the air layer and then freeze on the bottom of the ice layer making it thicker?

Light rays coming from a particular distant object all travel through nearly the same air layers and all are bent over about the same amount.

If the cold air layer is too thick, the droplets refreeze before hitting the ground and form ice pellets which are less hazardous.

And now Malenfant saw shadows of low clouds in the atmosphere; they drew clear dark lines hundreds of miles long over deeper air layers.

(Ducting propagation between air layers in the lower atmosphere is a well-understood phenonemon.

As an aircraft climbs, it passes through air layers of different temperature and humidity, some of which may be conducive to ice formation.

Air layers are most useful to the amateur propagator and breeder because they take up little space and allow the efficient cloning of many individuals.

Over hot surfaces during warm days, unstable dry air can lead to significant refraction of the light within the air layer, which causes inferior mirages.

For this it is necessary that the high atmospheric torrential rain instability in the lower air layers to combine with a significant amount of water vapors.

In the simulation, the Sun warms the surface slightly during the day, so the air layer closest to the ground warms and rises, forming clouds.

If there's wind, that saturated air layer is going to be swept away and replaced by air which is not saturated with vapor.
