Greenhouse gas-induced warming of the ocean Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, trap heat in the atmosphere and direct part of this back toward the surface. This heat cannot penetrate into the ocean itself, but it does warm the cool skin layer, and the level of this warming ultimately...

or heat. This heat is absorbed by greenhouse gases and trapped in our atmosphere.There have always been gases that exhibit greenhouse properties. Some of the greenhouse gases occur in nature such as water, vapor, carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. Others, specifically industrial...
When the Spring Festival, we do not have as they often buy a lot of fireworks, fireworks set off once the only in the New Year's eve, can rise to exult beaming atmosphere is ok, otherwise the carbon dioxide is really too much, families, cumulative emissions are impressive. I appeal thr...

Car exhaust contains gases such as carbon dioxide that contribute to global climate change. Such gases trap heat in the atmosphere, creating a greenhouse effect that contributes to the warming of the Earth's atmosphere, causing widespread climate change. Similarly, sulfur oxides and sulfates from ca...
How does the lithosphere affect the biosphere? How does the exosphere affect life on Earth? How does climate change affect terrestrial ecosystems? How do air currents affect heat in the Earth's atmosphere? How does climate impact geologic processes?
An image from NOAA/NASA satellite, GOES-16, shows a composite color full-disk visible image of Earth on Jan. 15, 2017. (Image credit: NOAA/NASA) The head of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said he does not believe that carbon dioxide is a main driver of climate change. "I...
The earth’s climate is largely controlled by how much of the sun’s light and heat is absorbed and reflected. By absorbing the sun’s heat, trees cool the air. The interaction of this relationship with an area’s topography (地势), latitude (纬度), and altitude, can create microclimate...
the Arctic’s carbon cycle—or the way that carbon is transferred between the land, ocean, and atmosphere. In order to better understand future trends in atmospheric carbon dioxide, and its associated global warming, we need a fuller picture of how carbon cycles between...
