greenhouse effect
DD_0082
This diagram illustrates the basic processes behind the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is a natural process that warms the Earth, and, in fact, is quite necessary for our survival. In the shown diagram, arrows display how the greenhouse effect works. Electromagnetic radiation from the Sun passes through the Earthó»s atmosphere. The Earth absorbs these short wavelengths and warms up. Heat is then radiated from the Earth as longer wavelength infrared radiation. Some of this infrared radiation is absorbed by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Absorption of heat causes the atmosphere to warm and emit its own infrared radiation. The Earthó»s surface and lower atmosphere warm until they reach a temperature where the infrared radiation emitted back into space, plus the directly reflected solar radiation, balance the absorbed energy coming in from the Sun. The equilibrium of incoming and outgoing radiation is what keeps the Earth warm and habitable.

greenhouse effect
DD_0083
When sunlight heats Earth's surface, some of the heat radiates back into the atmosphere. Some of this heat is absorbed by gases in the atmosphere. This is the greenhouse effect, and it helps to keep Earth warm. The greenhouse effect also allows Earth to have temperatures that can support life. Gases that absorb heat in the atmosphere are called greenhouse gases. They include carbon dioxide and water vapor mainly and a small amount of methane and ozone as well. Human actions have increased the levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The diagram here illustrates exactly what is written above. Apart from Earth, in the Solar System, there also greenhouse effects on Mars, Venus, and Titan. Thus, if it were not for greenhouse gases trapping heat in the atmosphere, the Earth would be a very cold place.
