The greenhouse effect in the atmosphere is produced due to: 1.Absorption and re-emission of infrared radiation by the atmosphere 2.Absorption and re-emission of ultraviolet radiation by the atmosphere 3.Absorption and re-emission of visible light by the atmosphere 4.Absorption and re-emission of visible light by clouds

Which of the following statements about the carbon dioxide emitted to the atmosphere by human activities each year is most accurate?   a. About half of it remains in the atmosphere and the other half is split equally between uptake by the oceans and vegetation.   b. Nearly all of it remains in the atmosphere.   c. About half of it dissolves in the oceans.   d. On an annual basis, human-caused emissions of carbon dioxide are small compared to volcanic emissions.   e. Human-caused emission of carbon dioxide is much greater than that emitted by respiration of all plants, animals, and microorganisms.

Use the provided graph to examine the relationship between temperature and photosynthetic rate (oxygen production). Then, use the graph to investigate the photosynthetic rate of your selected location. Note the temperature high and the temperature low for each month. In the template, record the maximum oxygen production per month based on the average temperature high Heres the average temps (c) for Davao Philippines:               H      L Jan 26 24 Feb 31 23 March 34 26 April 34 26 May 34 26 June 32 25 July 32 25 Aug 32 25 Sep 32 25 Oct 29 23 Nov 30 20 Dec 25 15

What wavelength of energy in the electromagnetic spectrum is trapped under the greenhouse gasses causing the earth to stay warm? Group of answer choices microwave range infrared range visible light range ultraviolet range

How does the combustion of fossil fuels influence our planet? Be sure to explain how the following are directly related to the combustion of fossil fuels: acid deposition, sea level rise, global climate change, greenhouse gasses and one other event of your choosing.

Classify the following statements as True or False. NO undergoes photodissociation to initiate the process of smog formation.:  The very cold tropopause layer is the major absorber of harmful UV radiation.:  In the stratosphere the temperature increases with increasing altitude.:  Temperature inversions are very useful, because the cause air pollution to disperse.:  Incoming solar radiation is primarily in the form of infrared radiation.:  Free radicals lose their energy spontaneously, reverting to a stable species by themselves.:  CO is removed from the atmosphere by reaction with the hydroxyl radical.: E A significant fraction of solar heat is converted to latent heat by evaporation of water.:  The Antarctic ozone hole reaches its peak during the antarctic winter.:  Free radicals last longer in the stratosphere than in the troposphere.:

please draw! Model/diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in the global ecosystem. You will need to create TWO models/diagrams of the sources and sinks of carbon. In the first model diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a natural, pre-industrial landscape. In the second model, diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a landscape altered by human activity and industry. Finally, write a few short sentences on what you would expect the atmospheric levels of CO2 to be in each model and why they would or would not be similar.

The Earth's ozone layer acts as a factor in global warming by preventing heat from escaping the atmosphere...true or false
