Even
radiation levels below those predicted for the end of the Permian period damage trees» abilities to make seeds, researchers report...

After the government evacuated more than 100,000 people living within 20 kilometres of the stricken power plant, it said they should be allowed to return to their homes when
radiation dose
levels fell
below 20 millisieverts a year.
Researchers emphasize, however, that environmental
levels of
radiation outside the 20 - kilo metre evacuation zone around the power plant are currently far
below levels that warrant concerns about human health.
Your cat can not be released from the Thyro - Cat facility until the amount of
radiation in his / her body is
below a
level mandated by law.
Thus
radiation emitted from
below the TAU = 1
level gets mostly absorbed before it can get out to space.
Second even if we ignore convection (and assume all warming of the atmosphere is from
below, ie no incoming solar
radiation is absorbed in the atmosphere) it is not the case that the atmosphere temperatures will «pivot» around some fixed
level (increasing
below it and falling above it).
The reduction in CO2 - cooling (of a layer between TOA and some other
level) assumes the increased downward emission at the base of the layer from the non-CO2 absorber within the layer is greater than the decreased OLR at TOA, which is the absorption of
radiation from
below the layer minus the emission from the layer reaching TOA (refering to the «baseline effects» that would remain if the preexisting CO2 were removed).
Increased CO2 in the stratosphere at higher
levels increases upwelling
radiation to space which appears to have been greater than absorption from
below resulting in cooling at higher
levels.
The back
radiation which is entrained into the ocean bulk by wave action is minimal, because wave action subducts water which is well
below the
level back
radiation can penetrate to (little more than its own wavelength).
