#545002 — Why Wind Turbines (May) Cause Drought

FromJames McGinn <jimmcginn9@gmail.com>

SubjectWhy Wind Turbines (May) Cause Drought
Message-ID<fbd1b3c6-e2fd-42a9-8366-01fcff318e61@googlegroups.com>
Boundaries are the seams in our atmosphere where energy accumulates allowing vortices to form. Vortices can only form if one body of air is moist and the other is dry. (Specifically, the boundary conditions invoke a form of H2O that, effectively, activates its surface tension. [Intricate knowledge of H2O hydrogen bonding dynamics is necessary to comprehend this]). Vortices are a constant along the boundary layer between the moist troposphere and the dry stratosphere. These are the jet streams. Vortices (jet streams and their many, usually invisible, tributaries) are the conduits of energy transfer in our atmosphere. They are self-sustaining energetically in that the vortex invokes an aerodynamic effect of air entering a tube and accelerating along its length, powered by air pressure, as it experiences isolation from the friction of atmosphere, producing a ramjet effect.

This is how our atmosphere actually functions. Convection plays no role whatsoever. Storms happen when the tributaries of the jet streams run out of moisture along the top of the troposphere and begin to grow down into the lower atmosphere. But they require smooth boundary layers (again, between moist bodies of air and dry bodies of air) to grow down. If they find an extremely high quality boundary layer they might grow all the way to the ground causing a tornado. Whatever the case, the net effect of a storm is to pull moist air higher to re-hydrate the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere. If, however, they find no boundary layer or if the boundary layer has had its smoothness destroyed they cannot grow down. And no storm will happen.

Smooth boundary layers between moist bodies of air and dry bodies of air cannot be created by man. They form naturally during periods of warmth and atmospheric calmness as heavier bodies of moist air pool-up under lighter bodies of dry air. (This phenomenon has been labelled [misnamed] by meteorlogists as "inversion" layers.) If the smoothness of these bodies of air is maintained as it is pulled up into the flow of the jet streams there is a good chance that it will be used as a pathway to achieve vortex growth downward to initiate a storm. On the other hand, if the smoothness is destroyed by wind farms, for example, there is little or no chance that it will serve as a pathway for vortex growth and a storm will not happen. This is why when wind farms are constructed drought soon follows.

Moist air is lighter than dry air at the same temperature, not heavier.

Any experienced pilot or meteorologist can tell you that.

He is obsessed by his idea, blind and deaf
to any theoretical principles and experimental evidences.

It's my discovery.  (Or, one of them.)

Actually, that is a myth.  Moist air is always heavier.

Their opinions are based on anecdote and consensus, not facts.

Herb says he knows how everything works. But this link shows his "heavy 
air" theory is totally wrong. No surprise there. He's been posting wrong 
theories for 20 years.

Read other posts to understanding the probitive issue here.  All the links you posted here are based on anecdote and consensus, not science.  

Science has techniques for distinguishing between collective beliefs and facts.  But they don't work unless you apply them.

You state that all the links I provided are based on anecdotes and consensus, and not science, but apparently you didn't actually read, for example, the Wiki link...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_air#Humidity_.28water_vapor.29 

... which is, in almost its entirety, nothing but science, filled with formulae and facts.

You, on the other hand, have presented ZERO facts and/or calculations to support your own position. Go ahead, show us all where the faults lie in the Wiki article, if you can, and good luck with that!

I did read it.  And I stand by my previous statement.

I don't dispute the facts and/or calculations.  I dispute 
the interpretation of the facts and/or calculations.  

What message do you think it sends that you are not 
addressing my argument and you are not making an 
argument of your own?

Well, I think the calculations and the facts can stand on their own, and do not need any interpretation. Since when do math results need interpretation? I can clearly see for myself that dry air is heavier than moist air, at the same temperature, from the math presented. If you don't dispute this math, how can you dispute the result? Interpretation? Really?

I'm not the one here making claims that are contrary to virtually all the atmospheric scientists, so why do I need to make an argument of my own? You have made no argument whatsoever, other than strictly verbal. I have seen no science from you at all. You can talk until the cows come home, but you haven't proven a darn thing!

pnalsing, I just want to observe that Jim McGinn is noticeably cranking 
the reel on his fishing rod, and I think he believes he has you hooked. 
He is starting his traditional maneuvers now of trying to get you to 
convince him of something he is going to refuse to acknowledge.

Your choice, of course, whether to waste your time. Mudwrestling pigs: 
you get dirty and the pig likes it.

You simpletons couldn't muster an argument to save your life.  You are like church ladies quoting the bible except you have the internet as your bible.  Frickin retards.
