Why does temperature rise as altitude increases in the stratosphere?
It begins to get warmer from the sun's radiation.
Why south pole receives little solar radiation during the winter?
Because the sun does not rise for six months
What part of the water cycle does solar radiation affect directly?
The sun (and wind) causes sea water to evaporate and rise to form clouds.
What are gasses in the atmosphere that absorb solar radiation called?
The ozone gas absorbs UV rays. It is present as ozone layer.These atmospheric gases, also referred to as greenhouse gases, absorb solar radiation and cause a rise in temperature.
Why is Earth's atmosphere mainly heated from the ground up?
Solar radiation mostly passes through the atmosphere without heating it, due to its wavelength. It does not pass through the ground, however, and it heats the ground. The ground emits radiation at a wavelength dependent on its temperature. This radiation happens to be in the thermal infrared part of the spectrum, or in other words, sensible heat. Therefore, the atmosphere is heated by the surface, whereupon the heat tends to rise and heat the lower atmosphere.
What relationship between insolation and terrestrial radiation causes temperature to rise?
terrestrial radiation-the long wave radiated by the sun is called terrestrial radiation.
Why does temperature rise as altitude increases in the stratosphere?
It begins to get warmer from the sun's radiation.
What is entailed in the state of emergency at the nuclear power plant in Onagawa Japan?
The radiation levels rise, causing 1,000% more radiation than normal.
Why does the temperature in the thermosphere steadily rise?
nitrogen and oxygen atom absorb solar radiation.
Ions Trapped in the Earth's magnetic field give rise to?
ultraviolet radiation
What effect does air density have on the absorption and radiation of energy?
An increase in air density will mean a decrease in the absorption and radiation of energy. An increase of air density causes temperature and pressure to rise.
Why south pole receives little solar radiation during the winter?
Because the sun does not rise for six months
The net radiation budget would increase as a result of a rise in atmospheric levels of?
D) all of the above methane, nirtous oxide, water vapour because they all absorb solar radiation the atmosphere
Does the transfer of thermal energy by radiation require matter?
Now, this question has two answers. To give rise to, and to absorb, thermal radiation, matter is needed. Energy in the form of gravitational or electromagnetic fields neither emits nor absorbs thermal radiation. However, thermal radiation, an electromagnetic wave, does not need matter to transverse space.
What part of the water cycle does Solar radiation affect?
The sun (and wind) causes sea water to evaporate and rise to form clouds.
Why does the temperature drop at night and get hotter in the morning?
The sun sends radiation from the sky to the ground to make the temperature rise, but when the sun sets the moon comes out and it doesn't have enough heat and light to send down as much radiation.
What part of the water cycle does solar radiation affect directly?
The sun (and wind) causes sea water to evaporate and rise to form clouds.
