The fact that there is a natural greenhouse effect (that the atmosphere restricts the passage of infra-red (IR) radiation from the Earth’s surface to space) is easily deducible from; i) the mean temperature of the surface (around 15ºC) and, ii) knowing that the planet is normally close to radiative equilibrium. in IPCC TAR).

Albedo The amount of solar radiation reflected from an object or surface, often expressed as a percentage. volume mixing ratio), together with a number of trace gases, such as argon (0.93% volume mixing ratio), helium, radiatively active greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (0.035% volume mixing ratio), and ozone.

Direct Environmental Effects Did you know that black carbon is the second most important warming agent in our atmosphere behind carbon dioxide (CO 2 )? This is because of black carbon’s enhanced ability to absorb visible light; it actually absorbs nearly a million times more energy per unit mass than CO 2. Arctic Council.

It also incorporates both a warm and a cool period during the oscillation - both of which impact upper atmospheric winds (10). The sun receives a constant stream of energy produced by nuclear processes that generate an immense amount of heat, light, and radiation. At the center of our solar system is a star that we call “The Sun”.
