What else can I help you with?
What if the earth has a thicker atmosphere?
makes the earth warmer.
What would happen if the insulating layer of carbon dioxide around the earth gets thicker?
There is no insulating LAYER of Carbon Dioxide round the Earth. The Carbon Dioxide is mixed up with the Oxygen and Nitrogen in Earth's atmosphere and is not present in the atmosphere as a layer. If the absolute amount of Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere increases, the Earth would get warmer.
What will happen if the sun gets slightly closer to the Earth?
The earth will get warmer.
What would happen if more of the sun's heat became trapped in earth's atmosphere and less heat into space?
More of the sun's heat trapped in the atmosphere would mean the greenhouse gases would become warmer. The earth and the atmosphere would become hotter, and global warming would speed up.
Why is the Earth's surface warmer than the surface of other planets like Mars?
The Earth's atmosphere traps heat.
What would happen if the thinning of ozone continues?
If the thinning continues, UV will enter the earth. There will be no life left.
What would happen if the earth continues to get warmer?
If the earth continues to warm up, all of the ice on the North and South Poles could melt. Global warming would cause the oceans to rise and cover more land. Many places along the coasts of every continent, including the city of New York, would be underwater.
What might happen if Earth begins to grow colder or warmer?
we could DIE
What is called when trapping heat by the atmosphere of Venus?
Greenhouse effect. The same effect that keeps Earth warmer than if there would be no atmosphere: without an atmosphere, the average temperature on Earth would be below zero Celsius.
The earth would get warmer if you release more dioxide gas into the atmosphere?
As the current theory states - yes.
What conduction must exist in order for energy to flow from the atmosphere to Earth?
Energy transfer occurs through conduction when there is direct physical contact between the atmosphere and Earth's surface. In this case, heat is transferred from the warmer atmosphere to the cooler Earth by molecular collisions.
What would happen if the air in the upper atmosphere were warmer than the water vapor that was continued in the air?
If the air in the upper atmosphere were warmer than the water vapor it contained, the increased temperature could enhance the capacity of the air to hold moisture, potentially leading to increased cloud formation and precipitation. This could also impact weather patterns and atmospheric circulation.
