If the earth did not have an atmosphere, would its average surface temperature be higher or lower than what it is now?
An Associated Press article on climate change said, “Some of the ice shelf’s disappearance was probably during times when the planet was 36 degrees Fahrenheit (2 degrees Celsius) to 37 degrees Fahrenheit (3 degrees Celsius)warmer than it is today.” What mistake did the reporter make?
Assuming there is no feedback and greenhouse effect, estimate Earth's
average temperature when there is a 5W/m² increase in solar radiation. (Use the
solar radiation in two-box model)
