Question

1)During the last Ice Age large sheets of ice moved across the Northern Hemisphere. Examining the Radiative Transfer Equation, which terms would be effected. Explain your reasoning.

2)How would the conditions in problem #1 affect satellite imagery? (assuming either weather satellites were available 12,00 years ago or similar conditions occurred again in the future)

3)The increase in carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere is contributing to climate change. Which terms would be affected in the Radiative Transfer Equation? Explain your reasoning.

Explanation / Answer

The radiative transfer equation is suppose to have deriveda three component equation which they define as radiative transfer equation but one thing is to be considered .Fudge factor is suppose to be affected with change in carbon die oxide concentration

But this equation is not correct to determine the global warming becuase the equation doesnot defines the heat generation from the radiation. Radiatibe transfer equation can show raidation depletion but it cannot show the amount of heat generated from it so it will be incorrect to judge such changes from the radiative transfer equation

Kv.a is the absorption coffecient which will be changes when more raiation will be absorped when the concentration of carbon die oxide will increase

DART is a radiotive imagery method that can be used for satelite imagery under this condition. because there will be excessive emission absorption.
