Which form of heat transfer is caused by the green houses effect?
Radiation is the form of heat transfer that is caused by the greenhouse effect. Carbon dioxide is an example of a greenhouse gas.
Is the main atmospheric gas responsible for the greenhouse effect carbon dioxide?
The normal greenhouse effect which keeps the earth warm enough for life is caused largely by water vapour, with a small effect from carbon dioxide and methane.However, the greenhouse gas responsible for the present enhanced greenhouse effect is carbon dioxide, yes.
Is there pictures of the greenhouse effect?
The greenhouse effect is merely a process of trapping carbon inside the earths atmosphere causing the earth to heat up. You can't take a picture of air can you?
Trapping of heat in the earths atmosphere by certain gases is known as the?
greenhouse effect
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.
Have humans affected the earths Greenhouse Effect?
yes, by releasing greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and sulphur dioxide througe the burning of fossil fuels
What environmental issue is related to the greenhouse effect?
Global Warming... Global Warming is caused by Carbon Dioxide being trapped in the Earth's atmosphere. AKA the greenhouse effect.
What is the greenhouse affect?
The greenhouse effect occurs when certain gasses in the atmosphere trap infrared radiation. This effect makes the planet warmer than it would be without a greenhouse effect.The greenhouse effect is caused by greenhouse gases; the most important greenhouse gasses in Earth's atmosphere are: water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane.Recently, the greenhouse effect has gotten stronger. Scientists believe this is because humans have been using large amounts of fossil fuels, which release carbon dioxide when they are burned. Since carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, it has caused the planet to warm over the past 150 years.
In which carbon pool does most of this extra carbon accumulate?
Most of the extra carbon from human activities accumulates in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide, contributing to the greenhouse effect and climate change.
What increases the temperature around the planet?
The enhanced greenhouse effect,which is caused by extra amounts of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide,which is caused by burning fossil fuels and deforestation.
How are greenhouse gases caused by the sun?
Greenhouse gases like water vapour, carbon dioxide, and methane are not caused by the sun. They are warmed by the sun and they hold the heat to keep the earth warm. This is called the greenhouse effect.
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.
