Question
Chapter 4.9, Problem 4.37YT
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: With the help of internet the temperature changes over the last 100 years in a particular area has to be find out, the areas which have changed the most and the least in the last 100 years has to be determined and these changes should be compared with that particular area.
Concept Introduction:
- • According to IPCC- International Panel on Climate Change, radiative forcing is the radiactive forcing of the surface – troposphere system due to the perturbation in or the introduction of an agent is the change in net irradiance at the tropopause after allowing for stratospheric tempertures to readjust to radiative equilibrium, but with surface and tropospheric temperatures and state held fixed at the unperturbed values.
- • Global warming is a serious environmental issue, in which there is an increase in the overall temperature of the earth by various factors.
- • Greenhouse gases are the gases that trap heat in the atmosphere
