The radiation balance at night is negative. This is due to the fact that the shortwave radiations are not radiating at night because the earth is colder than the sun.

Energy is usually transferred in fluids by radiation true or false?
False radiation is the transfer of energy through space.
What TYPE OF Em waves are used in camera autofocusing?
Autofocusing is usually based on infra red radiation.
What is the uncertainty in a good sand based egg timer what about an hourglass what about the candles used for making time at night?
Balance of bod y
Is wavelength measured in hertz or meters?
Usually, no. The wavelength of visible light is usually measured in nanometers. Only larger forms of electromagnetic radiation, like radio waves, are measured in meters.
What can one do to protect oneself from background radiation?
Background radiation come from black body radiation which is mostly infrared and microwave. Background radiation is not harmful at all. Fear from background radiation come from confusion of the word radiation where we mostly concern nuclear radiation, but light is also a form of radiation and we live within the bright day light on a normal basis.
What fog forms in valleys at night?
The type of fog that forms in valleys at night is Radiation Fog. It usually does not last long after sunrise.
What does a negative net radiation value mean?
It simple that outgoing or emitted radiation is more. this usually happens during night times.
What is the balance between incoming and outgoing energy called?
The balance between incoming and outgoing energy is called radiation balance.
Is the balance between incoming radiation and outgoing heat called radiation balance?
Is the equation of incoming and outgoing thermal radiation. Incoming radiation or solar radiation is called short wave and the radiation emitted from the earths surface and atmosphere (heat radiation) is in the infra -red spectrum and is known as long wave radiation.
What is radiational balance?
Radiation balance is the balance between incoming energy and outgoing energy
The balance between incoming and outgoing energy is called?
The Radiation balance
Why are there large temperature changes in the Twilight Zone?
Absence of solar radiation and heat. It usually is colder at night, right?
What is the form of radiation released by Earth at night?
The form of radiation released by earth at night is gamma rays.
What balance between incoming and outgoing energy is called?
The balance between incoming and outgoing energy is called radiation balance.
How does the greenhouse effect work relative to earth's energy balance?
The balance of incident Solar radiation as compared to the Re-Radiation of the same incident Solar radiation is skewed so that the Re-Radiation is cancelled and the Heat - easily in infra-red form - is Retained at and by the Earth.
What processes balance the heat budget of Earth's surface?
radiation
What is the main form of radiation released by earth at night?
The form of radiation released by earth at night is gamma rays.
