Radiation and Heat Transfer in the Atmosphere: A Comprehensive Approach on a Molecular Basis
Figure 9
Solution of the rate equations for the troposphere (close to the earth’s surface) representing the evolution of (a) the photon density (b) the photon density (c) the lower and (d) the upper population density, (e) the thermal energy density, and (f) the gas- (air)-temperature as a function of time.
