The corona is heated to millions of degrees, yet the lower atmospheric layers like the photosphere — the visible surface of the Sun — are only heated to a few thousand degrees.

Not exact matches

To see what sunspots looks like using modern instrumentation, here are two images of the sun's photosphere, taken by the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (a joint project of NASA and the European Space Agency).

This is why (absent sufficient solar or other non-LW heating) the skin temperature is lower than the effective radiating temperature of the planet (in analogy to the sun, the SW radiation from the sun is like the LW radiation, and the direct «solar heating» of the part of the atmosphere above the photosphere may have to due with electromagnetic effects (as in macroscopic plasmas and fields, not so much radiation emitted as a function of temperature).

I suppose some numbers would help, like increase of CO2 by 100 ppm, increases IR opacity by blah, raises photosphere altitude by blah.

EGHE, where atmospheric opacity to LWR raises height of topopause, reduces temp of photosphere, causes temperature rise at surface: this seems like a case of the tail wagging the dog; dare I use the term unphysical.

I like the way it compares the Earth's atmosphere to the sun's photosphere.

Another new camera feature on the Note 3, Surround shot works like Google's Photosphere or LG's VR Panorama feature, creating a 360 - degree image that captures everything around you.

In addition to upping the resolution, Huawei has worked on its camera software, introducing a new super-bright mode for capturing crisp low - light shots, along with a Photosphere - like 360 - degree panorama mode.

What's great though is that this is the full Google Camera software suite, which means awesome photography tricks like panorama, photosphere and lens blur.
