How do you think this influences the surface temperature on venus?

Answer 1

Instead of cooling things down, the clouds on Venus reflect sunlight and trap heat, a lot like a greenhouse keeps plants warm. On Venus the 'greenhouse effect' is out of control. It can get up to almost 900F (482C). It gets hotter than Mercury. The air is thick and poisonous. Venus' atmosphere is so heavy it would feel like you were deep in the ocean. Remember how your head feels squeezed at the bottom of a swimming pool? That is pressure. On Venus, the pressure is so strong it would crush you. Even tough metal spacecraft were smashed after a few hours on the surface of Venus.

Answer 2

Venus has a runaway greenhouse effect. This made the temperature rise and rise. More and more water from the oceans evaporated into the atmosphere. The warm atmosphere was able to hold more water vapor. This feedback effect caused the oceans to eventually boil dry.

Today the atmosphere of Venus is 96% carbon dioxide and temperature on the surface is 894°F (480°C).

Answer 3

The thick atmosphere of Venus traps heat from the sun through the greenhouse effect, leading to extremely high surface temperatures. This greenhouse effect is intensified by the high concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, which prevents heat from escaping back into space. The combination of these factors results in Venus having a surface temperature hot enough to melt lead.

Answer 4

The Sun keeps Venus in its orbit and makes it very hot. With its CO2 atmosphere it has suffered enormous global warming, with temperatures of 400-500 degrees C.

Answer 5

makes it hotter

CO2 traps greenhouse gases

even hotter than mercury
