Tons of concrete and asphalt soak up and
then radiate heat, making city centers hotter by day — and by night.
While it's true that thick, beefy bodies of material can soak up heat during the day and
then radiate that heat again when the air is cooler, this principle doesn't work if the thermal mass isn't insulated.
They intuitively appreciate that these surfaces absorb heat from the sun during the day and
then radiate this heat out at night.

The cooling mechanism involves the absorption of
heat by the haze particles, which
then emit infrared radiation, cooling the atmosphere by
radiating energy into space.
They may act as reflectors, bouncing incoming sunlight back into space, or like blankets, absorbing
heat emitted from the surface and
then radiating it back down.
If the matter retains its
heat,
then it will expand, becoming even sparser, and thus continue not to
radiate much despite its growing temperature.

Are the episodes thought to be actual changes in the amount of
heat being
radiated by the planet (because the surface of the ocean gets warmer and cooler, does the actual infrared flux from the top of the atmosphere
then change as a result)?
And I recall one can make ice in the desert the same way; a concentrating solar power plant could also create a «cold reservoir» by
radiating heat away from some storage material at night,
then dumping waste
heat into that in the daytime, perhaps.
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.
It is nature's way to transport huge amounts of latent
heat directly to the upper atmosphere where it can
then radiate directly to space.
During a cooling phase, surface atmosphere could cool as
heat is transported to upper atmosphere by more intense weather and
then radiates away.
The air and snow surface temperatures warm when storm clouds pass over the site, acting as a blanket that traps
heat, and
then they gradually cool as
heat radiates to space after skies clear.
Pressurize gas, it
heats up, and
radiates heat, once cooled and
then returned to ambient pressure and it's cooler [hence refrigeration and
heat pumps - one could use flame of propane gas to provide the energy in order to refrigerate stuff [propane refrigerators need no electricity in order to power a compressor].
Such gases absrob
heat energy through conduction and convection and
then radiate the energy away, some of which is lost to space.
Then, as the day wanes and the air cools, it rains and all that latent
heat radiates out through a less cloudy night sky.
So the first explanation for how this works, the original, is the now classic «greenhouse glass like barrier stopping longwave from the Sun from entering the atmosphere while visible travels through and is absorbed
heating the Earth's surface which
then radiates out thermal infrared, longwave.
And almost everyone else assumes that all visible light is only absorbed and
then once
heated from this absorption of energy, it
radiates as blackbody [it emits energy according to it's temperature].
Once a gas is compressed and
heated, it
then radiates the excess
heat away, until it achieves equilibrium with the surrounding environment.
Unless you are going to deny the earth
heats the sun at all,
then it makes no difference HOW the sun
heats the earth, the result is the still the same — the earth
then radiates all / some of this
heat, which
heats greenhouse gasses, which in turn return some of this
heat to the earth.
Or if each day vast amounts of sunlight is absorbed,
then vast amount of sunlight in a day must be
radiates as
heat.
Since it
radiates both up and down, but is absorbing only from below (assuming no IR from above),
then in the absence of additional
heat transfer (by eg., conduction or convection), its absolute temperature would fall to ~ 0.84 Tsurface.
The Oceans store up
heat near the equator,
then pumps it poleward where the
heat is
radiated to space.
LIA wasn't GLOBAL cooling; but colder in Europe, north America — because Arctic ocean had less ice cover - > was releasing 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.
But
then, you see, the impact crater cools, as the
heat is
radiated, convected, and conducted away.
If oxygen and nitrogen absorb
heat,
then clearly they
radiate heat.
In those regions, thunderstorms carry
heat from the surface miles upward, where it
then radiates out into space.
The problem with the «not
radiating» misstep is that it supports the notion that
heat somehow «knows» whether or not it is aiming towards a hotter surface,
then concludes it will not leave because it is hotter at the other end.
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.
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.
The AGW claim from the comic cartoon KT97 and kin The Greenhouse Effect says that Shortwave, (near UV, visible and near infrared, but mostly visible)
heats up land and oceans, that no longwave infrared from the Sun gets through the invisible undefined and unexplained barrier said to be like the glass of a greenhouse, and
then the Shortwave
heated land and oceans
radiate out longwave infrared, (which in real physics is
heat, also called thermal infrared).
If the Sun is not the cause of the slight increases in average temperature observed and it is truly CO2 «trapping
heat»
then we have the unusual paradox of a system
radiating less while it is warming.
The basic point and the one relevant to climate change, is still relevant — oceans still have an enormous moderating effect on temperature over time (though if there is a huge increase or decrease in re
radiated atmospheric
heat it is going to
then affect the oceans initially).
Somehow, largely by conduction, convection and latent
heat, and such means other than by radiation,
heat flows from the earth's surface to somewhere, where it is
then radiated into space.
adding a «
radiating body» also add more conduction and
then more
heat lost.
If earth
radiates 100 W / m ^ 2,
then the shell will
heat up and
radiate 50 w / m ^ 2 inward and 50 w / m ^ 2 outward (it has twice as much area remember).
By contrast, when you have the shell there,
then some of the
heat that the planet
radiates (actually, in this simple example where the shell is a perfect blackbody, all of that
heat) is absorbed by the shell which subsequently
radiates part of it back to the planet.
if an object
radiates to an energy measured at 20C to a shell for a sufficent time to
heat it to that temperature,
then the shell isn't going to be 40C because radiation leaves it bi-directionally, 20C each way.
If the earth warms,
then there is no balance, so the atmosphere can't
radiate back to it, so the extra
heat radiated from the earth and absorbed by the greenhouse gases must go elsewhere (e.g. convection) until such time as the atmosphere warms up to the new temperature.
Your coat
then radiates some of that
heat to the outside.
The
heat was absorbed by the floor and
then radiated into the room above.
If a significant portion of
heat were being lost from the ocean,
then it must warm surface air temperatures, before reaching the upper atmosphere and being
radiated out to space.

heat radiated from the ground and
then radiate some of it back to the Earth's surface, keeping the Earth warmer than it otherwise would be.

then plug it in and it starts
radiating heat without needing a difficult installation or taking up space.
The creation directly of Thermal IR
heating to land and sea in raising the temperature of the Earth which
then radiates out x amount of Thermal IR, and, the creation of
heat from Life itself as it uses these different energies, including the Solar of the cartoon, to convert to chemical and mechanical uses which enable Life to flourish and in turn
radiate out Thermal IR.
