Which human activity has affected the number and quantity of gases in the Earth's atmosphere the most?
Burning fossil fuels for energy production and transportation has had the greatest impact on increasing the amount of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, in the Earth's atmosphere. This activity contributes significantly to global warming and climate change.
How want to know that the gradient of a curve in displacement-time graph is increasing or decreasing?
If the gradient is a positive number the curve is increasing, and if the gradient is a negative number it is decreasing.
What is the negative impact of destroying a Forrest to put up a building?
There are many negative impacts. One is that it releases carbon into the atmosphere, which adds a greenhouse gas. Another is that it alters the water cycle, generally forcing water to run off into one point location, a sewer. It would otherwise be able to seep into the ground and also be transpired back to the atmosphere. Finally, it destroys habitat for a large number of animals that depend on the forest.
What does the greenhouse effect have to do with deforestation?
The greenhouse effect is simply the atmosphere's ability to retain heat. This is caused by gases, which we call greenhouse gases. These gases trap heat, rather like greenhouses trap heat to help grow plants in cold climates.
How is deforestation adding to the greenhouse effect?
Trees remove carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas, from the atmosphere and store the carbon in their trunks and branches. When deforestation happens and the trees are burnt or rot, that carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere, and because no more trees are planted, there is no longer anything to remove the CO2. This is how deforestation adds to the greenhouse effect.
How have humans changed the greenhouse effect?
Humans have altered the natural process of the greenhouse effect by burning fossil fuels for means of transport and electricity. The increased amount of fossil fuel that is being burnt has caused climate change. This has altered the greenhouse effect.
What effects can deforeststation have on the climate?
Primarily, deforestation release carbon into the atmosphere that becomes carbon dioxide. This is a greenhouse gas, and adding more of it to the atmosphere will tend to enhance the natural greenhouse effect. As a result, deforestation tends to contribute to the warming of the earth.
How do you think land clearing contributes to the enhanced greenhouse effect?
Land clearing destroys trees that used to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store the carbon in their roots, trunks and branches. So land clearing means there is more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere adding to the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
Increase in resonance structure leads to increase in stabilitywhy?
Increasing the number of resonance structures increases the delocalization of electrons, spreading the positive and negative charges over a larger area. This increased delocalization results in lower overall energy and increased stability of the molecule.
What is next number in logical sequence of 18 13 9 6 4?
The numbers are decreasing by a number that decrements by 1 every time. Notice that the numbers start increasing after a while because the decrement is now a negative number. A negative negative number is positive. 18 13 9 6 4 3 3 4 6 ...
Is global warming a result of human activities. Has this been an addition to the greenhouse effect?
The Earth has always has a greenhouse effect, it has kept our planet warmer than it should have been given its albedo and distance from the sun. The present concern is due to the enhanced greenhouse effect caused by the emission of carbon dioxide and a limited number of other gases into the atmosphere due to human activities.
What is the negative of a negative number?
The negative of a negative number is a positive number.
