The glass on the greenhouse stops temperature from leaving or entering like the gases do to the earth.The atmospheric gases are called 'greenhouse gases' based on the idea that the gases 'trap' heat like the walls of a greenhouse do
The atmospheric gases carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide are all greenhouse gases that help to heat the Earth.
The lowest atmospheric layer that contains greenhouse gases is the troposphere
Donald J Wuebbles has written: 'A primer on greenhouse gases' -- subject(s): Atmospheric Greenhouse effect, Greenhouse effect, Atmospheric
carbon dioxide (CO2) and Methane (CH4).
The danger is, if the infrared is trapped by atmospheric gases it can cause greenhouse effect.
Greenhouse gases capture heat in the greenhouse effect. If the amount of gas increases then it causes global warming.
How are atmospheric gases like the glass in a greenhouse
Oxygen and Nitrogen
The danger is, if the infrared is trapped by atmospheric gases it can cause greenhouse effect.
Yes. In fact Antarctica is in some ways the best location to measure the atmospheric levels of greenhouse gases, because there is no local industry to give false high or variable readings.
Greenhouse gases do exist and are not just a theory. Scientists have known for hundreds of years that some atmospheric gases (water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane and others) absorb heat rising from the surface of the earth.
