Increasing levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases
The gradual warming of earths surface is called global warming.
The name given to the gradual warming of the Earth is "Global Warming."
Global warming
A gradual increase in the temperature of the Earth's atmosphere is called global warming. This is primarily due to the release of greenhouse gases from human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, which trap heat in the atmosphere and lead to an overall rise in temperatures.
Scientists studying the Earth's climate changes have found that increased temperatures lead to increases in water vapor in the atmosphere, which adds to global warming. This means that increases in temperature and water vapor feed each other.
Global warming is the result of increases in greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere, which trap heat and lead to a warming trend in global temperatures. Other factors such as deforestation and industrial activities also contribute to global warming by releasing additional greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
Climate change can be observed everywhere, mostly as warming mean temperatures. This has especially been the case in the Arctic. In addition to this, ice is melting quickly in this region.
The gradual increase of the average air temperature in the earth's lower atmosphere is called global warming. This phenomenon is primarily driven by the release of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which trap heat and lead to a rise in temperatures.

In the atmosphere, temperatures increase with altitude in the stratosphere. This layer, which lies above the troposphere, contains the ozone layer that absorbs and scatters ultraviolet solar radiation, leading to a warming effect as altitude increases. Consequently, the stratosphere experiences a temperature inversion, contrasting with the troposphere, where temperatures typically decrease with altitude.
