With climate and Greenhouse Gas thoeries of Global warming, it appears to me that of most interest is the interface between the Earth's atmosphere and space and the flow of radiated heat from the sun, what's reflected back from Earth's surface and the consequences of any change in that balance.

At the same time there is a lot of extra heat (~ 5 W / m2) radiated back to space.

One is that the mechanism for the GHG warming is that the radiated energy from the air is absorbed by the GHGs to heat the GHG molecule to 900 + degrees, then the energy is released within microseconds and a few centimeters back to the air by collisions with the air, to return the air & GHGs to equilibrium temperature.

The heat is quickly radiated back into the atmosphere and joins the rest of the radiant energy in the atmosphere in the process of release to space.

All that matters is that some of this heat is radiated back out as longwave where it is captured by greenhouse gasses.

The heat is quickly conducted or radiated back into the atmosphere and joins the rest of the energy in the atmosphere awaiting a successful release to space.

However one can not create heat or energy from nothing so there is no net heat gain merely a delay until the part sent down is radiated back up again and has another attempt at leaving the planet.

What's more, continually increasing greenhouse gases increase the imbalance by about 0.3 W / m2 per decade even as the planet warms and radiates some extra heat back to space.

But that's actually an understatement by Gallup, since more than 97 % of the world's climatologists say that those carbon gases, which are given off by humans» burning of carbon - based fuels, are causing this planet's temperatures to rise over the long term, as those carbon gases accumulate in the atmosphere and also block the heat from being radiated back into outer space.

Installing light shading structures over streets, pavements and roofs can reduce the surface temperature of materials, and reduce the heat absorbed and radiated back into streets.

Due to the earth's spherical shape and orbital effects, annual incoming solar radiation at the poles is so low, polar regions always radiate more heat back to space than is ever absorbed locally.

Part way there, but no quantitation yet: of the 3.77 W / m ^ 2 radiated back dowwnard, most goes to increased rate of evaporation of the water at the surface, and much less goes to increased mean temp increase at the surface; hence increased rate of non-radiative transfer of heat from surface to upper atmosphere, slight increase in rainfall as hydrological cycle is faster, and slight increase in cloud cover.

This will reflect radiation back into the coffee, thereby further reducing the net radiated heat loss.

So, for example, the Sun's effects on the recent «global warming» are said to be of no significance, that it's all due to the greenhouse gas increase absorbing and radiating back / holding in blanket, the infrared heat upwelling from the surface.

Ideally the zero point would be modulated by ocean heat content and / or ssts, since it is the comparison between energy into the oceans vs. energy radiated back out that determines warming or cooling, but we don't have much historical ohc or sst data so a fixed zero point would seem to be the best that can be done.
