Concept review: factors influencing climate can you determine whether these factors have a warming or cooling effect on earth's surface? part a drag each of these factors into the appropriate bin.

Factors that contribute to warming include

1. Carbon dioxide (CO2) from fossils fuel combustion.

2. Parts of earth's surface which have low reflectivity (low albedo).

3. Tropospheric Ozone (O3).

4. Black carbon aerosols and soot particles.

5. methane (CH4) from decomposition and feedlots.

6. Nitrogen oxides (N2O) from denitrification and fossil fuel combustion.

Factors that contribute to cooling include;

1. Condenses water vapor (Cloud albedo).

2. Parts of earth's surface with high reflectivity (high albedo).
