Week 14: Science of Climate Change
What did you do in lab today? We looked into how much carbon dioxide is in the atmosphere. We learned how they figured out how much carbon dioxide was in the atmosphere. It has been increasing over time, leading to an increase in temperature. PhET Simulation CH4 Visible photons do not get stopped Not all infrared photons get stopped, but some of them do and then get “spit” back out CO2 The visible photons just go right through it and do not get stopped Not all infrared photons get stopped, but some of them do and then get “spit” back out H2O The visible photons just go right through it and do not get stopped Not all infrared photons get stopped, but some of them do and then get “spit” back out N2 The visible photons and infrared photons do not get stopped and go right through O2 The visible photons and infrared photons do not get stopped and go right through Greenhouse ga s: a gas that absorbs and re-emits infrared light CH4 C...
