Description

This lecture covers the greenhouse effect, radiative transfer, aerosols, and clouds. It explains the interaction of radiation with atmospheric constituents, the absorption by gases at different altitudes, and the impact of greenhouse gases on Earth's energy balance. The lecture also delves into the role of aerosols in climate change, their sources, types, and sizes. Furthermore, it discusses how aerosols influence climate through direct and indirect interactions with solar radiation and clouds, affecting atmospheric transmission and surface temperatures.
