These have higher specific heat than CO2 so they hold more heat than CO2 does. They capture shortwave radiation which is far more powerful than longwave radiation. That means they capture heat at day and dissipate heat at night. So they should be better at capturing and retaining heat than CO2 can.

Maybe even the heat will arrive and give everyone the cold shoulder. Tai Hai Chen wrote: so they hold more heat than CO2 does. Tai Hai Chen ... how does one substance "hold" more "heat" than any other? Are there substances that have lower "heat capacities" or lower "heat limits" than others? How does that work? Tai Hai Chen wrote: They capture shortwave radiation which is far more powerful than longwave radiation. Tai Hai Chen ... does wavelength determine power, i.e. energy / time ? I thought it was energy / time that determines power? Am I mistaken? Tai Hai Chen wrote: That means they capture heat at day and dissipate heat at night. How do they know when night time has arrived so that they stop capturing and start dissipating? I thought it was all based on temperature. Tai Hai Chen wrote: So they should be better at capturing and retaining heat than CO2 can.How is "heat" retained, exactly? I thought that thermal radiation pours out of all matter per Stefan-Boltzmann and that no matter can do anything to hinder that in any way. I don't think i can [define it]. I just kind of get a feel for the phrase. - keepit A Spaghetti strainer with the faucet running, retains water- tmiddles Clouds don't trap heat.

But when money and religion are involved, and there are people who value them above all else, then the lies begin. - trafn You are completely misunderstanding their use of the word "accumulation"! - Climate Scientist. The Stefan-Boltzman equation doesn't come up with the correct temperature if greenhouse gases are not considered - Hank :*sigh* Not the "raw data" crap. - Leafsdude IB STILL hasn't explained what Planck's Law means. Just more hand waving that it applies to everything and more asserting that the greenhouse effect 'violates' it.- Ceist Edited on 18-04-2019 21:00 |
