But Earth's balmy temperatures would not be possible without the greenhouse effect, which traps solar energy on Earth's surface and keeps the planet warm. The greenhouse effect arises from Earth's ...

So why is our planet alone so hospitable? In part, we owe our existence to a process called the greenhouse effect. Inside an artificial greenhouse filled with plants, the surrounding glass traps ...

A Dec. 17 Facebook post (direct link, archive link) claims a CO2-driven greenhouse effect is not causing modern climate change. "The greenhouse effect is a hoax," reads the post's caption. " ...

This runaway greenhouse gas effect is a massive danger to planets like Earth, and researchers have finally figured out how it might happen. Understanding the effect that runaway greenhouse gasses ...

"Venus is certainly a good example of one extremity of the greenhouse effect run amok." There is very little doubt that Earth is getting warmer, and that this warming is a result of human-driven ...

Dubbed a negative greenhouse effect, this unique occurrence only happens in extremely dry circumstances. Studies measuring how the negative greenhouse effect works point directly to a lack of ...

Is there a temperature rise number that will result in a runaway greenhouse effect sending the Earth towards the fate of Venus? -- Richard, New Boston NH Once upon a time, around small yellow sun ...

As Fourier’s ideas spread, it came to be called “the greenhouse effect.” Scientists continued to study the greenhouse effect, but it wasn’t until a Swedish chemist named Svante Arrhenius ...

Global warming is redrawing the isobars on weather maps. Researchers have found that changes in air pressure over the past 50 years bear the fingerprint of human influence 1. This is the first ...

The only way to explain the pattern is to include the effect of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emitted by humans. Current levels of the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide in our ...
