Question

Earth atmosphere is represented as a single layer that is transparent to solar radiation, but has an absorptivity, z in the infrared. The earth albedo is 0.3, the IR absorptivity for the atmosphere is 0.7708 to which the current average of 288 K for the earth. Consider that the Nitrogen content of The atmosphere of the earth is increased and the atmosphere absorbs an extra 4 W/m^2. Estimate the resulting change in surface temperature considering only the direct effect of Nitrogen.

Step 1: Introduction

 To solve this problem, we need to consider the direct effect of increased nitrogen content in the earth's atmosphere and estimate the resulting change in surface temperature. Let's break it down step by step.
