  "id": "MLC-T-MET-008309",
  "term": "Radiative flux divergence",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "The net change in radiative flux within a given volume of the atmosphere, indicating whether that volume is experiencing a net gain or loss of radiant energy. Positive divergence signifies a net loss of energy, leading to cooling, while negative divergence indicates a net gain, causing warming. This process drives atmospheric temperature changes.",
