How can a build up of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increase Earth's global temperature?
When greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide increase in the atmosphere then the temperature rises. Greenhouse gases capture heat rising from the surface of the earth and prevent it escaping to space.
When carbon dioxide levels increase in the atmosphere what happens to global temperatures?
When greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide increase in the atmosphere then the temperature rises. Greenhouse gases capture heat rising from the surface of the earth and prevent it escaping to space.
How does surface evaporation happen?
When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation. The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere.
Can Greenhouse gases change Earth's average surface temperature?
Yes. They can and they do. Any increase in the level of carbon dioxide or methane in the atmosphere will result in an increase in average global temperatures. This typically results in evaporation of additional water vapour, creating a slight amplifier effect, to further increase surface temperatures.
Why does water evaporate at a temperature of a surface?
When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; but a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation.
What is a rise in the earth's surface temperature due to an increase in the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
It is called the Greenhouse effect.

What unnatural temperature increase in the atmosphere near Earths surface is called?
An unnatural temperature increase in the atmosphere near the Earth's surface is called global warming
An unnatural temperature increase in the atmosphere near earths surface is called what?
An unnatural temperature increase in the atmosphere near the Earth's surface is called global warming
An unnatural temperature increase in the atmosphere near Earth's surface is called .?
Global warming
What planet has high carbon dioxide atmosphere and a high temperature surface?
Venus
Why evaporation happens at the surface?
When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation. The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere.

Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere influences the Earth's surface temperature by?
absorbing heat energy
Why does the water evaporates?
When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation. The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere.
