1. Temperature Variation

   Linked via "longwave radiation"

   Atmospheric Influence
   Atmospheric composition plays a critical role in damping or enhancing variation. Greenhouse gases (such as methane and the heavier isotopes of carbon dioxide) selectively absorb outgoing longwave radiation, effectively narrowing the diurnal range by trapping heat during the night. Conversely, atmospheric turbidity (aerosol loading) increases the daytime [al…

2. Water Vapor

   Linked via "longwave radiation"

   Radiative Interactions and Remote Sensing
   Water vapor is a powerful absorber and emitter of longwave radiation, contributing significantly to the atmospheric greenhouse effect. Its absorption bands are broad and overlap, making it essential for accurately modeling the Earth's energy budget.
