EARTH'S RADIATION BALANCE Reflection of Solar Radiation. Not all of the light entering the Earth's atmosphere plays a role in heating up the planet. Approximately 30% of the total incoming light is reflected back out into space.
PLANETARY BOUNDARIES Planetary Boundaries is a framework for expressing the resilience of the Earth as a system, and the risk that human activities are destabilizing the system. The Earth system has been remarkably stable for thousands of years. Losing that stability would be very harmful to humans and society.
3-METHYLBENZALDEHYDE No absorptions appear at 3300 cm-1, so molecules of this compound do not have terminal alkyne functional groups. However there is a peak just below 3000 cm-1, which is a signature for the presence of an alkane C-H stretching vibration.

OCEAN ACIDIFICATION
Ocean Acidification. To relate the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to the pH of the ocean, the computer program CO2SYS was used. This program requires various assumptions, which are listed in Table 1. Table 1. Input Options for Calculation of Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Concentration and Ocean pH. Total Inorganic Carbon. READING AN IR SPECTRUM When interpreting an infrared (IR) spectrum, it can be overwhelming to take it in all at once. If you follow a series of steps, focusing only on absorption peaks in certain regions of the IR spectrum, it will be much easier to interpret. GRADE 9 SCIENCE

Greenhouse gases produce spectral features in the infrared portion of the spectrum. One area of concern is the rapidly closing 'IR-window' - a phenomenon which occurs because different greenhouse gases absorb in different parts of the IR window. This has potentially serious consequences for global warming. The applet on the right shows how the IR signatures of a number of greenhouse gases DESIGN OUR CLIMATE

PHOTOELECTRIC EFFECT BACKGROUND The Photoelectric Effect. The discovery of cathode rays in the mid-1800s resulted in an explosion of experimental work by various physicists in Europe and England. This work led not only to the discovery of the first subatomic particle, the electron, by J. J. Thomson, but also to many other discoveries. One of spin-offs from the cathode ray

This animation illustrates the absorption of infrared radiation by CO2 in the troposphere and the collisional loss of this absorbed energy to surrounding N2 and O2 molecules. In this animation the user can sweep through a region of the IR spectrum and excite some of the vibrational modes of CO2.
