Infrared Radiation - radiation which is less energetic than visible radiation and more energetic than microwave radiation; the radiation emitted by the earth's surface or atmosphere
Insolation - incoming solar radiation; sunshine ...
Infrared Radiation: The long wave, (between 0.8 and 100 micrometres in wavelength) electromagnetic radiation emitted by all objects. Often also referred to as heat radiation.
Infrared Radiation Electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength between 0.7 and 1000 micrometers. Also called longwave radiation.
Insolation Solar radiation that is intercepted by Earth.
Infrared radiation Electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between about 0.7 and 1000 µm. This radiation is longer than visible radiation but shorter than microwave radiation.
Infrared Radiation - with a wavelength from 0.7 to 200 micrometers.
Infrared Radiation (IR) Infrared is electromagnetic radiation whose wavelength spans the region from about 0.7 to 1000 micrometers (longer than visible radiation, shorter than microwave radiation).
Infrared radiation- A form of energy with wave-lengths that are longer than visible light.
Ionosphere- The lower part of the thermosphere, where electrically charged particles called ions are found.
Infrared radiation (energy in the wavelength interval of 3- 80 micrometer) emitted by or being propagated through the atmosphere. It consists of both upwelling and downwelling components. Compare with terrestrial radiation.
ATMP ...
Infrared radiation(4)
The heat energy that is emitted from all solids, liquids, and gases. In the context of the greenhouse issue, the term refers to the heat energy emitted by the Earth's surface and its atmosphere.
infrared radiation: the portion of energy that has a wavelength between 0.8 micrometers (just above visible radiation) to 0.1 millimeters (microwave radiation).
MicrowaveA type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between those of infrared radiation and radio waves.
Terrestrial radiation The total infrared radiation emitted from the earth's surface. To be carefully distinguished from atmospheric radiation, effective terrestrial radiation, and insolation.
Atmospheric RadiationInfrared radiation (energy in the wavelength interval of 3- 80 micrometer) emitted by or being propagated through the atmosphere. It consists of both upwelling and downwelling components. Compare with terrestrial radiation.
infrared radiationThe electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between about 0.7 and 1000 micrometers. This radiation is longer than visible radiation but shorter than microwave radiation.
Effective Terrestrial RadiationThe difference between upwelling infrared or terrestrial radiation emitted from the earth and the downwelling infrared radiation from the atmosphere Effective TopographyThe topography as seen by an approaching ...
electromagnetic spectrum"The ordered sequence of all known electromagnetic radiations, extending from the shortest cosmic rays through gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet radiation, visible radiation, infrared radiation, ...
Terrestrial Radiation: Infrared radiation emitted by the earth.
Terminal Velocity: The speed at which the friction from the atmosphere equals the pull of gravity on an object.
The atmosphere absorbs the infrared radiation emitted by the Earth's surface and radiates it back to the Earth in much the same way a greenhouse traps heat as the sun's rays pass through the glass, ...
Water vapor, ozone, and carbon dioxide are capable of absorbing or transmitting infrared radiation. Also referred to as IR.
IR - Abbreviation for infrared, or infrared radiation.
ITCZ - Abbreviation for intertropical convergence zone.
Greenhouse gases: Gases in the atmosphere that are effective absorbers of infrared radiation and ineffective at absorbing solar radiation.
The process that the radiometer sensors onboard a geosynchronous satellite samples the air temperature at various levels of the atmosphere, based upon the amount of infrared radiation that is emitted from that level.
moves through space or material media; (2) energy propagated through space or through material media in the form of an advancing disturbance in electric and magnetic fields (e.g., visible light, x-rays, microwaves, radio waves, infrared radiation, ...
On the electromagnetic spectrum, it can be found between microwave radiation and visible light. Water vapor, ozone, and carbon dioxide are capable of absorbing or transmitting infrared radiation. May be referred to as IR.
(In meteorology, same as infrared radiation.) Lo-reference signal The audio-frequency signal transmitted by the Diamond-Hinman radiosonde when the baroswitch pen passes each fifth contact of the commutator up to a number determined by the design ...
