The greenhouse effect is caused by the warming of?
The planet(s) through solar radiation and the retention of a small portion of this heat through atmospheric gases. The greenhouse effect is caused by the warming of the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, mostly water vapor and carbon dioxide. This is a natural effect that has gone on for millions of years. The enhanced greenhouse effect, what we are experiencing now, is caused by the warming of the extra greenhouse gases that man is adding to the atmosphere, largely by burning fossil fuels, and by deforestation.
What are the gases of Greenhouse Effect?
The "greenhouse effect" is a phenomenon whereby greenhouse gases in the atmosphere act to entrap heat from the sun. This process is thought to be a self-feeding cycle which can spiral out of control. (The planet Venus is a prime example of the greenhouse effect gone wild.) The greenhouse effect is supported by the earth's natural carbon and water cycles which move carbon dioxide and water vapor in and out of the atmosphere. The greenhouse effect has kept the earth comfortably warm for millions of years.A certain amount of greenhouse effect is normal for our environment; however, too much greenhouse gas may result in extreme changes to earth's weather patterns and atmosphere, climate change.Greenhouse gases are atmospheric gases which increase the greenhouse effect. It is hoped that by reducing the emissions of these "greenhouse gases" wherever possible we may be able to reduce or eliminate the possibility of a enhanced or accelerated greenhouse effectscenario.A:The Enhanced Greenhouse Effect occurs when too much carbon dioxide is released in the air. This has happened for the past 200 years when we began burning fossil fuels for industry, transport and the generation of electricity. The enhanced, or accelerated, greenhouse effect is causing the recent warming of the planet. A runaway greenhouse effect is the cause of Venus's very hot climate because it has trapped the sun's heat so much that the oceans have boiled dry.
Why is the venus is the hottest planet in the solar system?
Venus is so hot because of a number of things.It is closer to the Sun than Earth but that is not the main reason.Venus has a massive amount of carbon dioxide (green house gas) in it's atmosphere which prevents solar radiation from being released back into space. So every day, energy from the Sun is absorbed by the planet but is not released back into space.Venus is an example of "global warming" gone mad.If we are not careful, this could be the fate of our Earth.
What does the term greenhouse effect mean?
Green house effect is a process in atmospheric physics that traps heat in the Earth's atmosphere. It is the result of physical interaction between components of the atmosphere (greenhouse gases) and incoming sunlight. It is not a layer of carbon dioxide in the sky that reflects heat back down as it radiates from the Earth's surface. Heat is absorbed by the carbon dioxide all through the atmosphere and the warmer gas "shares" its heat with all the atmospheric gases increasing the average atmospheric temperature.
Is that true that planet Pluto is gone?
It is not gone. It has been re-classified from being a planet to being a dwarf planet. This is due to its size and the nature of its orbit.
Which planet was gone?
Pluto is not considered a planet any more.
What planet is the hottest and your solar system?
Venus with a tempreture of 461.9°C (863.4°F) on average Followed very closley by Mercury even though it is closer to the sun with a tempreture range of -184 ºC to 427 ºC (-300 ºF to 800 ºF) Venus wins because it has an atmosphere that has gone into a run away Green House effect.
Has anybody gone to the planet Saturn?
No
What is the Differences between global warming and green house effect?
Global Warming is the result of greenhouse effect.Gases like Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, CFC, etc. known as greenhouse gases create a layer around the atmosphere which trap the sunlight inside.This is known as greenhouse effect. Actually, greenhouse effect is favourable to earth as it maintains the temperature of earth. Without it our earth would have gone back to ICE AGE. But due to large emissions of greenhouse gases its adverse effect i.e. Global Warning has started. A thick layer of greenhouse gases is increasing earth's temperature and causing the polar ice to melt and increase the sea level which is known as GLOBAL WARNING.
What causes the green house effect to occur?
The greenhouse effect causes the earth to keep naturally warm. This has gone on for millions of years.The enhanced greenhouse effect happens because humans started burning fossil fuel and cutting down trees. This meant that more carbon dioxide started building up in the atmosphere, too much for the natural carbon cycle to deal with. This extra build up of greenhouse gas is causing global warming.
Why green house effect is called so?
Greenhouse Effect is the result of the ability of certain gases in the atmosphere to trap heat from Earth's surface, causing the planet to warm. Without this thermal blanket of insulating gases, Earth's climate would be more than 30°C cooler and few organisms would survive on the planet. Some scientists believe that humans have increased the greenhouse gases by burning wood and using petroleum products, and that this affects global warming. Although Earth is known to have gone through cycles of heating and cooling for many millions of years, they are concerned that there has been an increase in Earth's surface temperature of about 0.6°C over the last 100 years.
Why atlantis are gone?
we are not sure that the planet atlantis ever existed.
