What two things can happen to electromagnetic energy that enters the earths atmosphere?
Electromagnetic energy that enters the Earth's atmosphere can be reflected back into space or absorbed by the atmosphere and surface. Absorption can lead to heating of the atmosphere and contribute to processes like the greenhouse effect.
How does solar radiation leave earths atmosphere?
Solar radiation leaves Earth's atmosphere through a process called reflection and absorption. Some of the radiation is reflected back into space by clouds, gases, and particles in the atmosphere. The remaining radiation is absorbed by the surface of the Earth, where it is converted into heat energy.
What the most ultraviolet radiation is blocked from reaching earths surface by what substance found in the atmosphere?
Ozone in the atmosphere blocks most of the UV radiation from the Sun... Without it's protection - the planet would overheat.
What effect can a very large eruption have on earths climate?
It will cool the earth's surface as radiation from the sun is blocked from entering the atmosphere
How the sun causes natural disasters?
the sun causes the earth to heat up more which the earths core is already heating so this activity causes the techtonic plates to move creating things such as earthquakes volcanic eruptions ect.
What part of the earths atmosphere absorbs the radiation that causes skin cancer?
green house effect
What is what is the earths atmosphere heated by?
The trapping of heat by the Earth's atmosphere is called the greenhouse effect. During the greenhouse effect, radiation becomes entrapped which results in the heating of the Earth.
What causes all of the changes that take place in earths atmosphere?
what causes all of the changes that take place in earths atmosphere is the tilt of the earths axis
Why does earths atmosphere absorb radiation?
It absorbs radiation to protect it. It protects from UV rays.
What is the source of radiation for both the earths atmosphere and greenhouse?
The sun.
What is the source of radiation for both the earths atmosphere the greenhouse?
The sun.
How does most of the heat in the earths atmosphere move from place to place?
Convectionheat moves by, radiation(:
What percentage of the suns radiation that reaches the earths atmosphere is absorbed by earths surface?
About 50% of the sun's radiation that reaches Earth's atmosphere is absorbed by the Earth's surface. The remaining energy is either reflected back to space or absorbed by the atmosphere.
How does the greenhouse effect affect the earths atmosphere?
The greenhouse effect causes the earth's atmosphere to hold in more heat radiation than it should. It is caused by envirormentally harmful chemicals entering the atmosphere, like carbon dioxcide. This ,in turn, causes the global temperature to increase global warming.
When earths surface is heated it radiates most of the energy back into the atmosphere as ultraviolet radiation?
Not as ultraviolet; the radiation is emitted as infrared radiation.
What is most of earths ultraviolet radiation absorbed by?
The atmosphere and especially the ozone layer
What form of radiation can be shielded by earths atmosphere?
The form of radiation shielded by atmosphere is Ultraviolet. The Ultraviolet is a part of radiation released by our star sun.
