How could solar radiation enhance or slow down the effects of global warming?
If the sun's radiation output increased, then this would make global warming hotter.If the sun's radiation output decreased, this would make global warming cooler.In fact, the sun's radiation doesn't vary much at all.
Which of the following is an example of heat transfer by radiation A. an electric space heater warming a room B. a fire warming a group of campers C. the Sun warming the Earth?
Radiation is when heat shoots out like a ray, so all the examples given show radiation.
What type of radiation is trapped on earth's surface by the greenhouse effect?
terestrial
The ozone layer protects us from too much?
Too much ultra violet radiation. It does so by using the radiation to create more ozone and warming the upper atmosphere.
What will be the effect of methane on the balance between incoming and outgoing radiation on Earth?
Methane is a greenhouse gas and it absorbs infrared radiation that is remitted from the earth. As it absorbs the radiation it is stopping it from being re-radiated to space thus warming the earth.
The definition greenhouse warming?
Warming that results when solar radiation is trapped by the atmosphere

Is there still radiation from the atomic bombs of World War 2?
no but global warming is killing millions of people worldwide. global warming killed my dog. and manbearpig is global warming's brother
What role does radiation play in warming the atmosphere?
Radiation from the sun warms the earth. Increasing amounts of greenhouse gases prevent this heat from reflecting back out into space, causing a global warming of the atmosphere.
Warming in the statosphere is mainly caused by?
Absorption of ultraviolet radiation by carbon dioxide.
How does the hole in the ozone layer supports the theory of global warming?
as it lets radiation from the sun which would nrmally be absorbed thus warming the earth
Two kittens are sleeping by a furnace vent. They are relying mainly on what kind of heat transfer?
Radiation warming
If global warming is happening how is it warming the planet?
The sun's rays (ultraviolet radiation) come through the atmosphere and warm the surface of the earth. This warmth rises in the form of infrared radiation into the atmosphere, where it is trapped by greenhouse gases. These are gases like carbon dioxide, methane and water vapour. The warmed gases spread the heat around and prevent it escaping into space. This is how global warming is warming the planet.
What are the impacts of UV radiation?
There can be a number of impacts of UV radiation. These include global warming, melting or glaciers, floods, and various diseases in humans and animals.
Of the three main processes in the atmosphere which has the greatest role in warming the upper troposphere?
radiation because it can
Which of earth's main energy sources is at work in the warming process?
Friction and radiation from the Earth's core.
