United States Trace Gas Network
Trace Gas Network United States Trace Gas Network Welcome to the TRAGNET Home Page The atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) are increasing substantially. These increases are expected to result in global warming and changes in precipitation patterns, and may directly affect terrestrial ecosystems. Our understanding of ...

Coral Reefs
In the atmosphere some of the long-wave radiation is absorbed by certain gases called greenhouse gases. These include carbon dioxide (CO2), chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N20), tropospheric ozone (O3), and water vapor. Each molecule of greenhouse gas becomes energized by the long-wave radiation. The energized molecules of gas then emit heat energy ...

Science and Environment (CSE) CoP-8/UNFCCC SPECIAL EDITION 1 October 23, 2002 Earth has a fever There naturally exist in the atmosphere gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (Ch4), nitrous oxide (N2O), chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), and water vapour. They are called greenhouse gases. Thats because they act like a blanket spread over the earths surface, helping to keep it warm. The temperatures ...

Equity Watch - Global Environmental Government Unit - Centre for Science and Environment (CSE)
SINGH Experts on climate change agree that cost-effective technologies are available to stabilise emissions of greenhouse gases (ghgs) like carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane at a low level, but there is a need to initiate major policy changes to make such a transition. Delegates from about 85 countries met in Accra, Ghana, from February 28 to March 3, ...

Global Warming and the Kyoto Protocol
Greenhouse gases--water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane, chlorofluorocarbons1, and ozone--trap heat in the atmosphere instead of allowing it to ... oxide, for example, is only one-thousandth as common as carbon dioxide, but is 200-300 times as effective at trapping heat, and remains in the atmosphere far longer than carbon ...
