Vor 6 Tagen · The relative roles of protoplanetary differentiation versus late accretion in establishing Earth’s life-essential volatile element inventory are being hotly debated. To address this issue, we ...
15. Mai 2024 · Human activity affects global surface temperatures by changing Earth’s radiative balance—the “give and take” between what comes in during the day and what Earth emits at night.
- Global warming, the phenomenon of increasing average air temperatures near Earth’s surface over the past one to two centuries, happens mostly in th...
- Continued global warming is expected to impact everything from energy use to water availability to crop productivity throughout the world. Poor cou...
- Polar bears live in the Arctic, where they use the region’s ice floes as they hunt seals and other marine mammals. Temperature increases related to...
2. Mai 2024 · The diagram of Earth’s radiation balance represents the flow of energy into and out of the Earth’s atmosphere. It shows the various components of radiation, including incoming solar radiation, outgoing reflected sunlight, emitted terrestrial radiation, and the greenhouse effect.
Vor 2 Tagen · Earth, third planet from the Sun and the fifth largest planet in the solar system in terms of size and mass. Its single most outstanding feature is that its near-surface environments are the only places in the universe known to harbour life. It is designated by the symbol ♁.

- Viewed from another planet, Earth would appear bright and bluish in colour. In latitudinal belts, swirling white cloud patterns of midlatitude and...
27. Apr. 2024 · The radiation balance of the Earth system is an accounting of the incoming and outgoing components of radiation. These components are almost equal over long time periods and over the Earth as whole. If they weren't, the Earth would be continually cooling or warming.
Vor 6 Tagen · The biosphere is the thin life-supporting stratum of Earth’s surface, extending from a few kilometres into the atmosphere to the deep-sea vents of the ocean. It is composed of living organisms and nonliving factors from which the organisms derive energy and nutrients.
8. Mai 2024 · The Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) was designed to collect information about sunlight reaching the Earth, sunlight reflected by the Earth, and heat released by the Earth into space. Since October 1984, ERBE has employed three satellites to collect this information: ERBS, NOAA-9, and NOAA-10. Each satellite was equipped with ...
