Daisyworld & Feedback Effects Kump Chapter 2 Tark Hamilton
10
Average Climate Response of the 5 Largest Volcanic Eruptions (1883-1991) Krakatau (1883), Santa Maria (1902), Agung (1963), El Chichón (1982), Pinatubo (1991)
11
Mt. Pinatubo Luzon, Philippines June 12, 1991 -3days VEI=6 Event 10 km 3 of tephra 20 Mtons of SO 2 -0.5°C cooling O 3 depletion
12
SO2 Aerosols block sunlight Arc Volcanoes with subducted or sediment contamination are worst
17
Negative Feedback: Equilibrium is Some Daisys & Some Dirt!
19
Designing Graphs: Data Display (measurements points, details) versus Concepts (general trends) (both are auto-scaled to show the range of variation) Daily Temperature Variation
22
Systems Diagram Graphic for how Surface Temperature Affects Daisy Coverage
23
Two Forcing Functions: Surface Temperature on Daisies (Curve) vs Daisys on Surface Temperature (line) & Equilibrium Diagram: P 1 stable versus P 2 unstable
26
Negative Feedback is Stable Equilibrium Positive Feedback is unstable, runaway heating
27
Increased Solar Luminosity increases heat at constant Daisy Coverage
28
Increasing Solar Luminosity Shifts Equilibria, while White Daisys still reflect heat the same way: i.e. Just different stable % coverage
29
Response of Daisyworld to Luminosity ΔT eq = ΔT 0 + ΔT f Where: ΔT 0 w/o feedback ΔT eq < ΔT 0 and ΔT f < 0
30
P 1 shifts because of negative feedback
31
a) Daisyworld’s response to Increased Luminosity (neg. feedback on T°C) b) Lifeless Planet with fixed albedo
33
Captain Kirk would never have expected the blue curve!
