Radiative Forcing

Scientists of Climate Change (Big Idea of Science: Earth is a system of systems which influences and is influenced by life on the planet. The processes occurring within this system influence the evolution of our planet and shape its climate and surface. The solar system also influences Earth and life on the planet-Earth is ever-changing due to the constant flow of energy and radiation from the Sun, as well as due to the unchanging processes on Earth. All living organisms affect the Earth and are affected by it.
