The earth has a greenhouse effect that keeps the planet warm. This is natural, supported by the carbon and water cycles, and has been going on for millions of years.
Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane from human activities mean the earth is experiencing an enhanced, or accelerated greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
The greenhouse effect is a natural process that keeps the Earth warm. Without it, the earth would be unable to retain enough heat to sustain life.The enhanced greenhouse effect is caused by the all the extra greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, methane etc) that we put into the air from burning fossil fuels and agriculture (cattle belches). These all trap more heat and radiation from the sun than is normally required. The earth radiates infrared energy from the sunlight that reaches the surface which should escape off into space, but due to the enhanced greenhouse effect, this radiation is trapped. Therefore, the overall temperature of the globe rises.See this link below for a diagram:Global warming is the increase of the average temperature of the earths atmosphere due to the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is caused by high concentrations of methane, co2 and water vapour in the earth's atmosphere . These gases occur naturally (natural greenhouse effect) however due to human activity (cars, burning fossil fuels, deforestation) more of these gases are released, and this enhances the greenhouse effect (so it is called the enhanced greenhouse effect.)
The sun ray's are most responsible for Earth's surface temperature.
it helps the scientists to predict future changes.
the external remparture of the earth is much lower than the temperature far beneath the earths surface
The Earths Equatorial diameter is 12756 km, and there are (on average) 149,597,890 km to the sun, so we are talking about 11728 Earths.
A gradual increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere is known as global warming. This is primarily caused by human activities releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which trap heat and contribute to the Earth's temperature rising.
This increase in Earth's average temperature is called global warming. It is caused by the buildup of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, which trap heat and lead to a gradual rise in global temperatures.
It raises the temperature and makes it hotter through the greenhouse effect.
The gradual increase of the average air temperature in the Earth's lower atmosphere is called global warming. This phenomenon is mainly caused by human activities that release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, leading to the trapping of heat and an overall rise in temperatures.
Global. Warming
The gradual increase of the average air temperature in Earth's lower atmosphere is known as global warming.
The gradual increase of the average air temperature in the Earth's lower atmosphere is known as global warming. This is primarily caused by the release of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which trap heat and lead to a rise in temperatures. Human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, are the main contributors to this phenomenon.
Due to the Greenhouse Effect, Earth's temperature is continually rising. If the trend does not change, the Earth's annual temperature will continue to rise, causing significant ecological problems.
The Earth's average surface temperature increased during the twentieth century, with a significant portion of this increase occurring in the latter half of the century. This period of warming has been attributed to human activities, particularly the burning of fossil fuels that release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
Global warming is the long-term increase in Earth's average surface temperature due to human activities that release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, like burning fossil fuels. This leads to climate change, which can result in more frequent and severe heatwaves, droughts, storms, and rising sea levels, among other impacts.
The atmosphere. The ozone layer absorbs UV radiation, and atmosphere also controls temperature through the greenhouse effect, which allows the earth's temperature to be suitable for life. If there was no greenhouse effect then the earths average temperature would be -14oC instead of the actual 15oC.
If there were no greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, Earth's average temperature would be significantly colder. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane trap heat in the atmosphere, helping to keep the planet warm. Without them, Earth's surface would not retain as much heat from the sun, resulting in much lower temperatures.
