Greenhouse Effect and Greenhouse Gases

GREENHOUSE FFECTFFECT

Main Greenhouse Gases Greenhouse GasChemical formula Anthropogenic sources (examples) Atmospheric Lifetime (years) GWP (100 year time horizon) Carbon DioxideCO 2 Fossil fuel combustion, deforestation, cement production Methane CH 4 fossil fuels, landfills, animal husbandry 1221 Nitrous OxideN2ON2Ofertilizer, fossil fuel combustion Fluorinated Gases variousindustrial processes various Global Warming Potential (GWP) is measure of how much a given mass of greenhouse gas is estimated to contribute to global warming. It is a relative scale which compares the gas to that of the same mass of carbon dioxide (whose GWP is by convention equal to 1).

Temperature and CO 2 Trends

Long-term trends in CO 2 concentrations and temperature
