4. Solar radiation Energy in = Energy out Reflected by atmosphere (34%) UV radiation Absorbed by ozone Absorbed by the earth Visible light Lower Stratosphere (ozone layer) Troposphere Heat Greenhouse effect Radiated by atmosphere as heat (66%) Earth Heat radiated by the earth
5. Greenhouse Effect Rays of sunlight p warm the earth's surface . Earth's surface absorbs muchcoming degrades it to longer-wavelength infrared radiation (heat) , which rises i absorbed by molecules of greenhouse gases a warms the lower atmosphere. As concentrations of greenhouse gases rise , more heat to the lower atmosphere. (a) (b) (c)
