The trapping of heat by a planet's atmosphere is called what?
it allows solar radiation to penetrate to the surface!
Is earth kept warm by layers of air?
No because Earth is kept warm by the sun's thermal energy. However, it would be much colder if we didn't have the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is caused by a blanket of gases, mainly carbon dioxide, which insulates the earth. IMPROVE THIS ANSWER AND COMMENT IN IT PLEASE
Where does the greenhouse effect the ozone layer the most?
The greenhouse effect the ozone at the poles. It is the maximum at the poles.
Is the enhanced greenhouse effect essential for life on earth?
The greenhouse effect is essential to life on earth. The enhanced greenhouse effect is not. In fact if it is enhanced too quickly it can be harmful to life.
Where in space does the greenhouse effect occur?
The greenhouse effect does not occur in space, it occurs within the Earth's atmosphere. Without the greenhouse effect, most living things would freeze to death.
What is the process by which gases in the atmosphere absorb and reradiate heat?
Greenhouse Effect
What layer is most responsible for the green house effect?
A:All layers of the atmosphere contribute to the greenhouse effect. Water vapour is a contributor to the natural greenhouse effect, although it is unlikely to have a substantial bearing on the enhanced greenhouse efffect that we are now experiencing. Water vapour is present in the lower atmosphere, but the upper atmosphere is too cold for water vapour. Other greenhouse gases are present from the troposphere to the stratosphere.
What is a sentence with greenhouse effect?
The greenhouse effect is the natural way that the Earth keeps warm. Too many extra greenhouse gases turn the greenhouse effect into an enhanced greenhouse effect. The enhanced, or accelerated, greenhouse effect is causing global warming.
The trapping of heat by a planet's atmosphere is called what?

What is another name for enhanced greenhouse effect?
The greenhouse effect is the natural process by which greenhouse gases keep the earth's temperature at a comfortable level suitable for human existence. The enhanced greenhouse effect is the increase in greenhouse gases that is leading to global warming. The term "enhanced greenhouse effect" is also referred to as the "anthropogenic greenhouse effect" and is the idea that humans may have an effect on global climate. It is also referred to as the "runaway greenhouse effect".
Trapping of heat in the earths atmosphere by certain gases is known as the?
greenhouse effect
How do you use The greenhouse effect in a sentence?
the greenhouse effect is a global phenomenon.
What do humans do to effect the greenhouse effect?
The greenhouse effect keeps us all warm enough for life.The enhanced greenhouse effect causes global warming.
When did the Greenhouse effect start?
The Greenhouse effect started long before humans were on Earth. The Greenhouse effect is only intensified by the presence of humans.
The effect is the process by which gases in the atmosphere trap heat?
The greenhouse effect
How is the greenhouse effect caused on a molecular level?
The greenhouse effect is caused on a molecular level by the greenhouse gases combing, thus forming the greenhouse effect and that's what causes it to be on a molecular level.
What planet has an atmosphere with a greenhouse effect?
EarthVenusMarsThe greenhouse effect occurs on every planet with an atmosphere (including Earth). On Venus, there is a runaway greenhouse effect causing temperatures high enough to melt lead.Mars has a greenhouse effect that is weak because of its thin atmosphere.
