Warm Up – Climate Change: Vital Signs of the Planet The greenhouse effect is a naturally occurring physical process that warms the Earth's surface with energy from the atmosphere Without the effect, Earth's average surface temperature would be well below freezing
NASA study: Earths energy budget out of balance A new NASA study underscores the fact that greenhouse gases generated by human activity -- not changes in solar activity -- are the primary force driving global warming
Carbon – Climate Change: Vital Signs of the Planet In 1856, Eunice Foote discovered that carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water vapor in Earth's atmosphere trap escaping infrared (heat) radiation, acting like a blanket to keep the surface layers warm (the greenhouse effect)
Can Climate Affect Earthquakes, Or Are the Connections Shaky? “We’ve seen that relatively small stress changes due to climate-like forcings can effect microseismicity,” he said “A lot of small fractures in Earth’s crust are unstable We see also that tides can cause faint Earth tremors known as microseisms
Clouds and Aerosols – Climate Change: Vital Signs of the Planet As a direct effect, aerosols scatter sunlight back into space As an indirect effect, they can either help or hinder the development of clouds, which in turn can either cool or warm the planet
NASA Announces Summer 2023 Hottest on Record Scientific observations and analyses made over decades by NASA, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and other international institutions have shown this warming has been driven primarily by human-caused greenhouse gas emissions
Methane ‘Super-Emitters Mapped by NASAs New Earth Space Mission Relative to carbon dioxide, methane makes up a fraction of human-caused greenhouse-gas emissions, but it’s estimated to be 80 times more effective, ton for ton, at trapping heat in the atmosphere in the 20 years after release
New NASA Training for Greenhouse Gas Earth Observations While there are a handful of different greenhouse gases, methane and carbon dioxide are the most abundant Both pose a unique threat to our global climate and need tailored efforts to reduce their long- and short-term potential to increase global temperatures
