Why is the mesosphere colder than the thermosphere, even though it's closer to earth?

Geography

4 0

Answer:

Mesosphere lies in between 50 to 80 km above the earth surface and due to low density gases escape easily and hence it is colder.

Explanation:

Mesosphere has the capacity to not absorb the infrared radiation that's why the gases reflected from the earth surface escape the layer of mesopause and goes inside the thermosphere.

In the thermosphere, even the minute atoms of gases ca be absorbed by the layer which increases the air temperature and the air rises up hence making thermosphere as the hottest layer in the atmosphere.

The albedo of Earth's surface is impacted by what covers the surface. Suppose Location A is covered by trees, Location B is cove
Drupady [299]

Answer:

A. is covered by trees

Explanation:

  • The albedo is a measure of the reflectivity of the surface and thus is applied to the earth as a measure of the earth's energy potential when reflecting into space that has cooling impacts on the earth landscape.
  • <u>Thus the albedo of the land's surface is the function of the impact so the climate and the weather patterns on earth are like the earth's terrain is uneven so is the impact of the reflected from the surface as he white and the open places have a high albedo capacity as compared to the areas which are overt and are dense and dark.  </u>
  • Due to the trees are scattered and tends to absorb the light that is emitted and they also have a great heat-absorbing capacity. The albedo of the coniferous trees is about 0.09 to 0.15, whereas that of the deciduous trees about of 0.15 to 0.18, hence is the lowest.
