Our understanding of how certain atmospheric gases trap heat dates back almost 200 years to 1824 when Joseph Fourier described what we know as the greenhouse effect.
The atmospheric greenhouse effect, an idea that authors trace back to the traditional works of Fourier 1824, Tyndall 1861, and Arrhenius 1896, and which is still supported in global climatology, essentially describes a fictitious mechanism, in which a planetary atmosphere acts as a heat pump driven by an environment that is radiatively interacting with but radiatively equilibrated to the atmospheric system.
Where confusion arises, it is usually the glasshouse that is improperly described, rather than the atmospheric greenhouse effect.
As a young scientist in the 1920s, Otto Heinrich Warburg described an elevated rate of glycolysis occurring in cancer cells, even in the presence of atmospheric oxygen (the Warburg effect) that earned him a Nobel...

In Kiehl and Trenberth 1997, they find a 155 W / m2 total greenhouse effect for approximately present - day Earth conditions (among the approximations: surface is a perfect (isothermal **) blackbody, and the use a representative 1 - dimensional atmospheric column (instead of seperate calculations for each location over the globe at each time over the course of a period of time sufficient to describe a climatic state — but note righthand side of p. 200, just past halfway down the column)... a few other things).
You also don't find the atmospheric CO2 greenhouse effect described in any theoretical physics textbook.
Earth's Greenhouse Effect is described as all about radiant effects: Wiki: «The greenhouse effect is a process by which thermal radiation from a planetary surface is absorbed by atmospheric greenhouse gases, and is re-radiated in all direcEffect is described as all about radiant effects: Wiki: «The greenhouse effect is a process by which thermal radiation from a planetary surface is absorbed by atmospheric greenhouse gases, and is re-radiated in all direceffect is a process by which thermal radiation from a planetary surface is absorbed by atmospheric greenhouse gases, and is re-radiated in all directions.
Arctic news describes the effects of atmospheric particulates (primarily from geoengineering which Arctic news refuses to admit to).
The atmospheric 14C / 12C ratio is also decreasing, and much faster than by any such fractionation effect as described in 3.
In this regard, here is the webpage of a retired atmospheric science professor who is sort of stickler for describing the greenhouse effect correctly: http://www.ems.psu.edu/~fraser/Bad/BadGreenhouse.html He is a bit militant in what the correct pedagogy is for my taste, but I think he does have a valid point that thinking about it in the wrong way can lead people astray.
Based on documents and other evidence from an eight month investigation, ICN described how Exxon scientists were warning of potentially catastrophic effects of a buildup of atmospheric carbon dioxide from fossil fuels as early as 1977.
Neither conjecture is likely to be the explanation of the major cause of the observed rise in atmospheric CO2, but both conjectures are probably right in that the effects they describe affected the rise.
If this is the case, these clouds would reflect more light, which could counteract the slight warming effect described by Grise and his colleagues, said Dennis Hartmann, an atmospheric scientist at the University of Washington in Seattle who was not involved with the new study.
Where confusion arises, it is usually the glasshouse that is improperly described, rather than the atmospheric greenhouse effect.

Interestingly though it is not older than the discovery of the atmospheric greenhouse effect, which was first described by Fourier in 1824.
If I were choosing a model to describe with as much quantitative fidelity as possible the greenhouse effect in the earth's atmosphere, then the model I would choose would be a state - of - the - art convective - radiative transfer code using the actual composition and empirical absorption / emission lines for the atmospheric constituents.
