What is the definition of global warming
and other short wave radiation passes in through the atmosphere and is absorbed by the earth.
As the earths surface is hotter radiation is radiated outwards.
Some of the radiation is trapped by gases in the atmosphere.
This causes global which leads to change.
Annotate the diagram to show the greenhouse effect
Annotate the diagram to show the greenhouse effect
The radiation that passes through the atmosphere is in the _ _ part of the spectrum
The radiation that is reflected by the atmosphere back to earth is in the _ _ part of the spectrum (called thermal radiation in chemistry)
Put the stages of the Greenhouse effect in the correct order.
This causes global warming (an increase in the global average temperature).
Short wavelength radiation from the Sun passes through the atmosphere
The radiation hits the Earth's surface, where some of its energy is absorbed (warming the Earth)
The lower energy radiation is reflected back (now long wavelength)
Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere absorb this long wavelength radiation (warming the Earth)
Which of the following are greenhouse gases?
As the amount the percentage of CO₂ in the atmosphere has increased the average global temperature
Deforestation has caused CO₂ levels to
Planting more trees will cause CO₂ levels to
Increased production of methane due to livestock farming will cause global warming to
Increased production of CO₂ burning more fossil fuels will cause global warming to
Which of the following are effects of climate change due to global warming?
