1.1 Definition‚ Scope and importance of Environmental Studies Environmental Studies is a multidisciplinary subject. It employs subjects like chemistry‚ physics‚ botany‚ zoology‚ physiology‚ geography‚ geology‚ geophysics‚ and metrology to describe the biological and physical nature of our environment. In order to understand how people function separately and also in a group‚ Environmental Studies involves an understanding of philosophy‚ ethics‚ psychology‚ anthropology‚ demography‚ archaeology

Greenhouse Gas The greenhouse gas effect is the number one blame for global warming. We could not live without the greenhouse effect. The main gases are ozone‚ nitrous oxide‚ carbon dioxide‚ methane‚ and water vapor. These reflected rays‚ called infrared radiation ‚ keeps the atmosphere warm. They are vital in maintaining the balance in our atmosphere. The greenhouse effect is mostly a result of the sunlight’s energy and the clouds that absorb and reflect heat. Without the greenhouse effect

Counter Radiation and the Greenhouse Effect As well as being warmed by shortwave radiation from the Sun‚ the Earth’s surface is significantly heated by the long wave radiation emitted by the atmosphere and absorbed by the ground. Let’s look at this in more detail. The energy flows between the surface‚ atmosphere‚ and space. Some of this radiation is reflected back to space‚ but much is absorbed‚ warming the surface. Meanwhile‚ the Earth’s surface emits long-wave radiation upwards. Some of

EVS LAB 1 AIM – To investigate how the greenhouse effect operates. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS- * Do not touch the light bulb as it would be hot. * Handle all equipment carefully‚ especially the thermometers and the test tubes- as these can break. VARIABLES:- INDEPENDENT VARIABLES: * Time intervals between each reading DEPENDANT VARIABLES: * Temperature readings CONTROL VARIABLES:- * Distance of one bulb to another * Height of each bulb from surface APPARATUS * 2 thermometers

Global Warming is an important ecological issue and has many negative effects upon our environment. However‚ for all the attention that this issue does not draw‚ that is how dire it is growing to be. There are many problems that are causing global warming‚ and if they are not corrected‚ or at least prevented from here on out‚ there are going to be some severe complications in the near future. Greenhouse holes in the ozone layer and the decay of the atmosphere are just a few of the problems that need

Greenhouse effects and global warming are an uprising environmental issue. The greenhouse effect is the process by which absorption and emission of infrared radiation by gases are released in the atmosphere. The major greenhouse gases are water vapor (36 -70%)‚ carbon dioxide CO2 (9-26%)‚ methane CH4 (4-9%)‚ and ozone O3 (3-7%). Since the industrial revolution‚ human activity has increased the amount of greenhouse gases‚ leading to increased levels of CO2‚ methane and troposphere ozone. Fossil fuels

The greenhouse effect is an effect on the atmosphere as a result of the presence of a certain gases called greenhouse gases which are made up of carbon dioxide‚ chlorofluorocarbons‚ methane‚ nitrous oxide‚ low-level ozone and water vapour. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are similar to the greenhouse glass panes which trap the heat and warm the greenhouse. When the greenhouse effect occurs‚ sunlight enters the Earth’s atmosphere and while some solar radiation is reflected back to space

The Greenhouse Effect and Global Warming Recently‚ global warming has moved to a serious scientific issue. Because sunlight is constantly falling on the earth‚ the law of physics say that the planet has to radiate the same amount of energy back into space. Infrared radiation is sent out by the earth through the atmosphere‚ where molecules (carbon dioxide) hold outgoing radiation for a while‚ warming the surface.1 The molecules are kind of like glass in a greenhouse which is why this process
