Dr. Ron Lembke

Sun sends UV? Infrared – show on spectrum

CO 2 collects in Troposphere Ozone O 3 layer – absorbs ultraviolet radiation from sun

Van Allen Radiation Belts Magnetic field of Earth creates radiation belts. These protect us from particles flying at Earth via solar wind (stream of ionized gases at 400 km/sec)

Atmospheric CO ppm – parts per million

Burning Carbon

Oceans Equatorial Pacific Ocean Major source of CO2 in non-El Niño years Neutral in strong El Niño periods
