Not exact matches

Actually, though, most of the OLR originates from below the tropopause (can get up around 18 km in the tropics, generally lower)-- with a majority of solar radiation absorbed at the surface, a crude approximation can be made that the area emitting to space is less than 2 * (20/6371) * 100 % ~ = 0.628 % more than the area heated by the sun, so the OLR per unit area should be well within about 0.6 % of the value calculated without the Earth's curvature (I'm guessing it would actually be closer to if not less than 0.3 % different).
To summarize this concept, do you agree that when a layer's temperature is due to heat absorbed by CO2 alone, more CO2 will increase the temperature, whereas if the temperature includes heating from something else as well, more CO2 can help rid the layer of that extra heat?
According to the scientist conducting the study, the soot — which comes from the Chindia belt, as well as the Western world — and which is black, absorbs heat from the sun more readilly than white ice, thereby accelerating the warming and melting of the glaciers even more than the Greenhouse effect.
Among the possible excuses offered by the UN's supposed experts for the lack of warming: «ash from volcanoes,» a «decline in heat from the sun,» or more heat being «absorbed by the deep oceans.»
In the Arctic, the tipping points identified in the new report, published on Friday, include: growth in vegetation on tundra, which replaces reflective snow and ice with darker vegetation, thus absorbing more heat; higher releases of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, from the tundra as it warms; shifts in snow distribution that warm the ocean, resulting in altered climate patterns as far away as Asia, where the monsoon could be effected; and the collapse of some key Arctic fisheries, with knock - on effects on ocean ecosystems around the globe.»
Note, for example, how the temperature trend in the first decade of the 21st century was generally flat because an upward push by anthropogenic forces was temporarily offset by a downward pull as solar activity decreased and the oceans absorbed more heat than usual from the atmosphere (sea water temperatures continued to rise).»
Loss of sea ice means more heat from the sun is absorbed by the ocean surface, adding to Arctic warming.

To be energy or more properly, heat transferred, the one - way upwelling radiation from the surface absorbed by the air should be reduced by subtraction of the down - welling radiation of the air absorbed by the surface Note that by subtraction of the (about 20 W / m ² in global average) flow surface to cosmos of both terms of GH, GH expression becomes GH = (radiation from the surface absorbed by the air) minus (outgoing longwave radiation from the air) which has absolutely no physical sense!
CO2 and H2O vapour emit vastly more heat than they absorb because they are somewhere between +30 C and -55 C, depending on the height, and deep space is about -270 C, as always the heat flows from hot to cold, the bigger the temperature gradient the greater the heat flow.

The gas which absorbs the most heat (infrared radiation) is the most effective greenhouse gas as in the atmosphere it would absorb more infrared coming from the Earth's surface.

Not to mention, why do skeptics continue to ignore, dismiss, or simply «argue with» by any means possible, the far more important fact that most of the increased absorbed heat energy is going into warming the oceans, not the atmosphere (thus keeping the ambient air temp rise from registering as high as it otherwise would, and impacting FUTURE climate far more).
(BTW, the skeptics like to game the Beer's Law thing — «existing CO2 already absorbs all the IR from the ground» — forgetting that absorbed heat has to be re-emitted, and more CO2 shifts up the equilibrium temperature.
