- W4205578320 abstract "Publisher SummaryThis chapter discusses the atmospheric radiative transfer and climate. The energy that sustains warmth and life at the surface of the earth travels from the sun in the form of radiation. The interaction of incoming solar radiation with the atmosphere and the surface determines the total amount of solar energy absorbed and the distribution of solar heating among atmospheric layers and the surface. Because the atmosphere is relatively transparent to solar radiation, about half of the incoming solar radiation is absorbed at the ocean or land surface. To achieve energy balance, heat provided by the absorption of solar radiation must be returned to space by emission from the earth. In this process, it is the transmission of thermal infrared radiation through the atmosphere and the upward transport of heat by atmospheric motions that are of importance. The transmission properties of the atmosphere are determined by its gaseous composition and the nature of aerosols and water clouds present in it. The composition of the atmosphere is such that it efficiently absorbs and emits thermal infrared radiation. The energy of radiation is measured by its intensity or radiance. The intensity of radiation in a cavity in thermodynamic equilibrium is given uniquely as a function of frequency and temperature by Planck's law. An object that absorbs all radiation incident on it is called a “blackbody.” The chapter describes the selective absorption and emission by atmospheric gases." @default.
