All greenhouse gases have what is called a Global Warming Potential (GWP). This value is used to compare the abilities of different greenhouse gases to trap heat in the atmosphere. GWPs are based on the heat-absorbing ability of each gas relative to that of carbon dioxide (CO2), as well ...

GlobAl WArminG PotentiAl of Greenhouse GAses The Global Warming Potential (GWP) of a gas is a measure of the degree, relative to carbon dioxide, to which the presence of that gas in the atmosphere will contribute to a long-term increase in global temperature . The calculation of the GWP for...

All these gases have what is known as – Global Warming Potential , or GWP with some much higher than others. Scientists now realize that the proportion of these gases has increased significantly over a few hundred years. The real increase began around the time of the Industrial Revolution. ...

The impact of each type of greenhouse gas is collectively measured in terms of its global warming potential (GWP). This metric compares the heat-trapping ability of a gas to that of CO2 over a particular period—for instance, over 20, 100 or 500 years. For example, the 100-year GWP of...

that methane has, per mole, a global warming potential 3.7 times that of carbon dioxide. On this basis, carbon dioxide emissions account for 80% of the contribution to global warming of current greenhouse gas emissions, as compared with 57% of the increase in radiative forcing for the 1980s...
