The skin layer planet is optically very thin, so it doesn't affect the OLR significantly, but (absent direct solar heating) the little bit of the radiant flux (approximatly equal to the OLR) from below that it absorbs must be (at equilibrium) balanced by emission, which will be both downward and upward, so the flux emitted in either direction is only half of what was absorbed from below; via Kirchhoff's Law, the temperature must be smaller than the brightness temperature of the OLR (for a grey gas, Tskin ^ 4 ~ = (Te ^ 4) / 2, where Te is the effective radiating temperature for the planet, equal to the brightness temperature of the OLR — *** HOWEVER, see below ***).

but it worried me when you said that the air could gain heat from the water and still cool, which is only possible if the air is radiating heat to space faster than it is receiving it from the ocean.

Some 99.5 % of the hurricane force cause no harm and is naturally dissipated — every second, some 2 million metric tons of air are circulated in, up, and out of the hurricane — where heat energy is radiated to empty space — which every day equals, the energy released by the fusion of four hundred 20 mega-ton hydrogen bombs (See, Rice University's Hurricane Trivia at Houston TeacherTECH Archives).

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.

It takes radiated heat energy to move molecules into vibration which is what heats up matter.

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.

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.

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.

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).

Birkeland currents are interesting, although they seem to be a possible correction to direct solar irradiance only at the poles and only in the ionosphere, which is already enormously hot — between 1500C and 2500C — but so tenuous that you wouldn't feel heat if you stuck your arm out into the near vacuum of the ionosphere, you'd feel intense cooling as your blood started to boil and ordinary thermometers would radiate heat away faster than they would equilibrate (and hence would read very cold temperatures).

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).

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).

which in turn means more evaporation, which in turn creates more clouds trapping the heat allowing less heat to be radiated off into space

Your comment its correct for the sun's radiation heat but not for the infra red radiation from the Earth's surface that GHG's, whether natural or man made, absorb the absorption heat the atmosphere which re radiates up and down.

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.
