Which biome has the highest net radiation budget value?
It's actually the rain forest because that is the biome closest to the equator, meaning that it has a net radiation budget surplus (more solar radiation is absorbed than reflected/re-emitted as infrared radiation), unlike the biomes closer to the poles which will have a net radiation budget deficit (more infrared radiation is re-emitted/reflected than solar radiation that is absorbed).

Why are rainforests hot when its wet?
Rain forests are so hot because they are found near the equator. The closer to the equator you are, the more solar radiation there is. The more solar radiation there is, the hotter it is.
What other forms of radiation may come from stars?
xray radiation and ultraviolet radiation
What are kinds of rain?
the types of rain are acida rain and h2o rain convectional rain, frontal rain and relief rain. x
How does nuclear radiation cause acid rain?
It doesn't!
Why does Black Rain fall in the aftermath of dropping an atomic bomb?
Black rain spreads the radiation after an atomic bomb. The mushroom cloud puts radiation in the atmosphere, which becomes the black rain. Black rain is the main cause for widspread cancers and other sicknesses after an atomic bomb.
What was acid rain during the holocaust?
when they had nucleaar bombs, and after it would rain acid because of the left over radiation in the air.
Will the radiation from Japan's nuclear plant affect the rain?
It won't affect the amount of rain, but the rain water could be slightly radioactive. I very much doubt if it would present a real risk to health etc, but of course there is a certain hysteria whenever radiation is involved in the public mind.

Does a radar gun work in the rain?
I would assume so. Radar is just another form of electromagnetic radiation, just like light. I would infer that if you can see through the rain (that's light), then other forms of electromagnetic radiation (such as radar) can also pass through the rain. Of Course, I would also assume that the range and effectiveness of the radar gun would be reduced at least a small bit. As long as the radar is functional normal rain water will not have any effect on it working to detect speed.
How has human activity that has changed the biosphere?
Humans have changed the biosphere in some negative ways. These ways include pollution, acid rain, radiation, deforestation, and urbanization.
How does the environment and lifestyle factors affect the condition of the skin?
Wind, rain, ultraviolet radiation from the sun, smoking, sleep, stress, alcohol can all affect the skin.
What pollution is caused by nuclear fallout?
Dust storms, Radiation, Water may get irradiated and undrinkable, acid rain. Basically, the shittiest, pardon my french, weather ever.
Which coating helps resist UV radiation and acid rain?

What is the name given to elementary particles originating in the sun and other stars that continuously rain down on the earth?
Stars are constantly emitting solar radiation, or CMEs (coronal mass ejections). Earth is a target to solar radiation, but fortunately most radiation is either deflected Earth's magnetic field or ozone layer protecting us from it. Solar radiation is dangerous and lethal in outer space if exposed to it. Earth's magnetic field directs solar radiation to the poles and when it reacts with the atmosphere it lights up and creates the northern lights.
