Darker asteroids (which both absorb and
radiate heat more efficiently) have both hotter hot sides and colder cold sides.
Greenhouse gases trap some of the escaping heat closer to the Earth's surface, making it harder for it to shed that heat, so the Earth warms up in order to
radiate the heat more effectively.

heat back to space.
Its proximity to the star might also make it easier to study, since the planet would
radiate more heat and orbit
more rapidly than any planets lying farther away.

-- warm the upper atmosphere so it
radiates more heat away?
There's also a number of interesting applications in the evolution of Earth's atmosphere that branch off from the runaway greenhouse physics, for example how fast a magma - ocean covered early Earth ends up cooling — you can't lose
heat to space of
more than about 310 W / m2 or so for an Earth - sized planet with an efficient water vapor feedback, so it takes much longer for an atmosphere - cloaked Earth to cool off from impact events than a body just
radiating at sigmaT ^ 4.
The whole issue is that any level above what is often called the «effective
radiating level» (say, at ~ 255 K on Earth) should start to cool as atmospheric CO2 increases, since the layers above this height are being shielded
more strongly from upwelling radiation... except not quite, because convection distributes
heating higher than this level, the stratosphere marks the point where convection gives out and there is high static stability.
Away from the dense network of

more than
radiating it away.
Since the oceans are massive
heat sinks, they cause delays (around a decade or
more) in observed temperature changes from changes in
radiated energy from the sun.
Now, however, the extra CO2 does
more than
radiate away
heat due to its own absorptive properties, but also can
radiate away
heat from the other source.
A second alternative acknowledges an unchanging OLR, but posits that less is now entering the stratosphere in wavelengths absorbable by CO2 because a
heated surface is now
radiating more IR to space in wavelengths where CO2 does not absorb («window regions»).
So the day will lengthen,
more heat will
radiate away at night, and the planet will cool again.
I would think that 3 degrees would be
more than enough, especially after a few years of that

If the DLR decreases, the temperature gradient between the surface skin and bulk increases, and
more heat flows from the ocean depths to the surface where it is
radiated away.
Dynamical upward transport by convection removes excess
heat from the surface
more efficiently than longwave radiation is able to accomplish in the presence of a humid, optically thick boundary layer, and deposits it in the upper troposphere where it is
more easily
radiated to space, thereby affecting the planetary energy balance.
It
radiates less
heat upward so the ocean has a tendency to gain
more heat.
Less clouds in that area for a while
more heat into the sea that day an
more radiated out that day and night.
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.
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.
It gets warmer,
more heat radiates to space.
As increased levels of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide trap
more solar
heat radiating from the Earth's surface, less warmth reaches the stratosphere, which cools as a result.
At the same time there was an increase in IR —
more heat power flux being
radiated into space — planetary cooling.
During a cooling phase, surface atmosphere could cool as
heat is transported to upper atmosphere by
more intense weather and then
radiates away.
that cloud response to warming acts similarly to the eye's iris, opening to let
more heat radiate out to space as temperature rises and closing to hold
more heat in as temperature falls, and generally supports the understanding that Earth's climate is self - regulating and therefore not prone to a «tipping point» or a «runaway greenhouse effect» or «catastrophic warming.»..

more heat / was accumulating - >
radiating + spreading
more coldness — currents were taking that extra coldness to Mexican gulf — then to the Mediterranean — because Sahara was increasing creation of dry
heat and evaporating extra water in the Mediterranean — to top up the deficit — gulf stream was faster / that was melting
more ice on arctic also as chain reaction — Because Mediterranean doesn't have enough tributaries, to compensate for the evaporation deficit.
WHEN
more photons enter than leave, then that gas will
heat up until it
radiates away as many photons as it receives.
At the same time, the various bushes aren't producing any new leaves at all yet, and even the hazel flowers haven't really opened yet (normally the first sign of spring around here), despite sufficiently sunny days (which are followed by freezing nights because the lack of clouds mean the Earth
radiates heat into the atmosphere
more easily).
They
radiate most of the
heat that is received from the sun, so the average temperature of the Earth stays
more or less constant.
But if a little
more energy is absorbed, then CO2 is acting like a little black soot in the atmosphere and it will, in turn,
radiate more toward space as a black box would from the added
heat and this might compensate for the change in albedo.
These stem from a diversity of site - specific conditions, including, but not limited to: local vegetation; presence of building structures and contributions made by such structures involving energy use,
heating and air conditioning, etc; exposure to winds, the wind velocities determined by climatic factors and also whether certain wind directions are
more favored than others by terrain or the presence or absence thereof to bodies of water; proximity to grass, asphalt, concrete or other material surfaces; the physical conditions of the CRS itself which include: the exact location of the temperature sensors within it, the degree of unimpeded flow of external air through the CRS, the character of the paint used; the exact height of the instrument above the external surface (noting that when the ground is covered by 3 feet of snow, the temperature instrument is about 60 % closer to, or less than 2 feet, above an excellent
radiating surface, much closer than it would be under snow - free conditions).
When the Arctic freezes over the ice insulates the sea and slows the
heat loss from the N pole, when the Arctic ocean has less ice then
more heat radiates off to space.
which in turn means
more evaporation, which in turn creates
more clouds trapping the
heat allowing less
heat to be
radiated off into space
Spencer's article lends support to the discredited idea that cold CO2 [carbon dioxide] high in the atmosphere back -
radiates to Earth's warmer surface,
heating it
more and causing it to
radiate to the atmosphere and space with higher intensity than it would without cold CO2 back - radiation.
However, it is much easier to figure out what happens when you add
more radiative gases to an atmosphere that already has them: And, the answer is that it increases the IR opacity of the atmosphere, which increases the altitude of the effective
radiating level and hence means the emission is occurring from a lower - temperature layer, leading to a reduction of emission that is eventually remedied by the atmosphere
heating up so that radiative balance at the top - of - the - atmosphere is restored.
The tired old alarmist argument goes something like this: CO2 levels increase, which in turn increases temperature, which in turn means
more evaporation, which in turn creates
more clouds trapping the
heat allowing less
heat to be
radiated off into space.
If the
heat isn't released, the next day the thermal mass will absorb
more heat and start acting as a heater, emitting or
radiating heat, and contributing to the overheating risk.
Since to me (and many scientists, although some wanted a lot
more corroborative evidence, which they've also gotten) it makes absolutely no sense to presume that the earth would just go about its merry way and keep the climate nice and relatively stable for us (though this rare actual climate scientist pseudo skeptic seems to think it would, based upon some non scientific belief — see second half of this piece), when the earth changes climate easily as it is, climate is ultimately an expression of energy, it is stabilized (right now) by the oceans and ice sheets, and increasing the number of long term thermal radiation /
heat energy absorbing and re
radiating molecules to levels not seen on earth in several million years would add an enormous influx of energy to the lower atmosphere earth system, which would mildly warm the air and increasingly transfer energy to the earth over time, which in turn would start to alter those stabilizing systems (and which, with increasing ocean energy retention and accelerating polar ice sheet melting at both ends of the globe, is exactly what we've been seeing) and start to reinforce the same process until a new stases would be reached well after the atmospheric levels of ghg has stabilized.
This is largely zero - sum in terms of
heat content except for the fact that warmer surfaces will
radiate more strongly according to Plank's law, so that the total
heat will decrease with El Ninos (greater outgoing IR).
