| The molecules of carbon dioxide in theEarth’s atmosphere affect the heat balance of theEarth by acting as a one-way screen.{{U}} (1) {{/U}}these molecules allow radiation at visible wavelengths, where most of the energy of sunlight is concerned, to pass{{U}} (2) {{/U}}, they absorb some of the longer-wave-length, infrared emissions radiated from theEarth’s surface, radiation that would{{U}} (3) {{/U}}be transmitted back into space. For theEarth to maintain a constant average temperature, such emissions from the planet must{{U}} (4) {{/U}}incoming solar radiation. If there were no carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, heat would{{U}} (5) {{/U}}from theEarth much more easily. Today,{{U}} (6) {{/U}}, the potential problem is too much carbon dioxide.Could the increase in carbon dioxide{{U}} (7) {{/U}}a global rise in average temperature, and could such a rise have serious{{U}} (8) {{/U}}for human society Mathematical models that allow us to calculate the rise in temperature as a function of the increase{{U}} (9) {{/U}};that the{{U}} (10) {{/U}}is probably yes. One mathematical model{{U}} (11) {{/U}}that doubling the atmospheric carbon dioxide would raise the global mean surface temperature by 2.5℃. This model assumes that the atmosphere’s relative humidity remains constant and the temperature decreases with altitude at a{{U}} (12) {{/U}}of 6.5℃ per kilometer. The assumption of constant relative humidity is important, because water vapor in the atmosphere is another{{U}} (13) {{/U}}absorber or radiation at infrared wavelengths.Because warm air can hold more{{U}} (14) {{/U}}than cool air, the relative humidity will be constant{{U}} (15) {{/U}}the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere increases{{U}} (16) {{/U}}the temperature rises.{{U}} (17) {{/U}}, more infrared radiation would be absorbed and reradiated{{U}} (18) {{/U}}to theEarth’s surface.
