question:
The energy imbalance will continue to grow, and surface temperatures will continue to rise. 1 References. 2 Cahalan, R. (n.d.) Solar and Earth Radiation. 3 Hansen, J., Nazarenko, L., Ruedy, R., Sato, M., Willis, J., Del Genio, A., Koch, D., Lacis, A., Lo, K., Menon, S., Novakov, T., Perlwitz, J., Russell, G., Schmidt, G.A., and Tausnev, N. (2005). In addition to the induced changes in water vapor content there are three other (direct) sources of anthropogenic water vapor: 1 1. Evaporation and transpiration losses from farming and the watering of lawns and landscapes. 2 2. Evaporation losses from canals and artificial lakes including the reservoirs behind dams. The absorption of most of the outgoing thermal radiation by water vapor creates most of Earth's natural greenhouse effect - an effect that is now being increased by human pollution. Without the atmospheric water vapor Earth's surface would be, on average, about 31C (55F) colder than it is now and the differences in temperature between high and low altitudes and between the poles and equator would be smaller. Climate change intensifies this cycle because as air temperatures increase, more water evaporates into the air. Warmer air can hold more water vapor, which can lead to more intense rainstorms, causing major problems like extreme flooding in coastal communities around the world. <<Related: A Thirst for Power: The Water Energy Nexus>> Water vapour is the most abundant greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, yet other greenhouse gases (such as carbon dioxide and methane) are often portrayed as the main drivers of climate change. If we did not have water vapor and the trace gases the earth would be much colder because the oxygen, nitrogen, and argon would not prevent the loss of infrared to space. http://en.wikiped...of_Earth Water vapor is the primary greenhouse gas in the atmosphere but it is limited in altitude (due to condensation) and variable (due to the ability to condense with drops in temperature or changes in pressure). Water vapor is another greenhouse gas that keeps heat from the sun trapped in the Earth's atmosphere and helps maintain a temperature at which life can flourish on our planet. However, deforestation also affects the amount of this in the air. Air is a mixture of gases, which includes nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapor (water in its gas form). Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor in air. All air contains at least some water vapor, but the amount of water vapor changes a lot from place to place and from time to time. Studies have shown that deforestation has contributed to the amount of water vapor in the air and, over just a few years, the amount of water vapor present has increased by four percent. Besides increasing the temperature of the Earth's surface and atmosphere, this also has knock-on effects for weather patterns. Water Cycle Water Vapor is the most abundant greenhouse gas in the atmosphere [] However, changes in its conentration is also considered to be a result of climate feedbacks related to the warming of the atmosphere rather than a direct result of industrialization. Query: how does water vapor affect climate
answer:
Water vapor is another greenhouse gas that keeps heat from the sun trapped in the Earth's atmosphere and helps maintain a temperature at which life can flourish on our planet. However, deforestation also affects the amount of this in the air.

question:
How long does stomach ulcer take to heal? The good news, stomach ulcer is treatable. Even new treatments are more effective to make the ulcer heal more quickly. But how long does it take to heal?

Your description of your problem pretty much sums up exactly what I have been experiencing. I am a 22 year old college student, and these symptoms have been increasing steadily for the past year. Ulcers caused by a medication should begin healing shortly after you stop taking the drug. Anti-acid medicine may be used for two to six weeks to help healing and relieve pain. Ulcers caused by H. pylori can heal after the bacteria are killed. Typically, you will take antibiotics along with acid-suppressing medicine for two weeks. Then you may take acid-suppressing medication for another four to eight weeks. Gastric ulcers tend to heal more slowly than duodenal ulcers. Uncomplicated gastric ulcers take up to two or three months to heal completely. Duodenal ulcers take about six weeks to heal. An ulcer can temporarily heal without antibiotics. But it is common for an ulcer to recur or for another ulcer to form nearby, if the bacteria are not killed. In fact, peptic ulcer is pretty common in elderly people who usually need to take certain pain killers on a regular basis. The major steps of the treatment plan The core of the treatment is determined based on the trigger factor of the disease. Ulcer Facts. 1 Most ulcers are caused by an infection, not spicy food, acid or stress. 2 The most common ulcer symptom is burning pain in the stomach. 3 Your doctor can test you for H. pylori infection. 4 Antibiotics are the new cure for ulcers. 5 Eliminating H. pylori infections with antibiotics means that your ulcer can be cured for good. : Peptic ulcer disease is fairly common and with treatment it tends to stay at bay for long period of time. NSAID group is notoriously famous in casing gastritis and other similar peptic problems. Taking medicines for 4 weeks usually gives the stomach ulcers time to heal and be able to withstand the usual acid attack in the stomach. Twenty-five million Americans suffer from ulcers. An ulcer is a sore or hole in the lining of the stomach or duodenum (the first part of the small intestine). People of any age can get an ulcer and women are affected just as often as men. What causes ulcers? Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a bacterium that lives on the lining of the stomach. Query: how long does it take a peptic ulcer to heal
answer:
It takes 4 weeks for a peptic ulcer to heal.

If the order is placed on Friday, or weekends, how does the 2 days to ship rule work? Promised ship dates are based on weekdaysMonday through Friday (except holidays). An order placed on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday will have a promised ship-date range of Monday Tuesday, and should be shipped no later than Tuesday, the 2nd business day after the order was placed. For customized orders, the shipping would probably be more than 2 days. How do we deal with this? Per our Community Rules, you should only list items you are able to ship within 2 business days.

Amazon.ca seller are expected to ship all orders within 2 business days of the date the order notification is made available by Amazon.ca. When you offer a certain shipping option, you can deliver your order using any carrier and method, as long as the buyer receives their package within the expected timeframe for the shipping service they selected. All sellers are required to offer standard domestic shipping. Amazon's super saver shipping takes longer - they say five to eight *business days.* I have found that to be an accurate estimate. If you want your purchases faster, you have to pay for the speed. Query: how long does it take amazon to ship order
