Global Warming
In the atmosphere greenhouse effect is mainly due to the carbon dioxide layer. In the upper atmosphere, there is a protective layer of ozone. This ozone layer does not allow the ultraviolet radiation to enter into the earth’s atmosphere. Lower atmosphere contains carbon dioxide which traps the infrared radiation from different sources and maintains a suitable temperature. If there is an excess of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the temperature of the earth increases which is called global warming.
Acid rain
When the various gases like CO , SO , NO , combine with rainwater then their respective acids will be produced. These acids will react on the ground along with rain water in the cocktail form. This process is called acid rain. In the atmosphere, these gases react with water vapour and formed their corresponding acids like H CO3, H SO4, and others. When rainfall occurs these acids get mixed with rain and forms acid rain.
Effect of acid rain
1. The acidity of the soil increases which causes t reduction of productivity of the soil.
2. The acidity of water bodies increases which cause the decline in the population of aquatic organism.
Green House Effect
The artificial house which is made by glass or plastic inside which the temperature will be more than the outer environmental temperature is called greenhouse. The artificial greenhouse provides controlled environment for plants.
Examples of Green House Effect
1. The interior of a car parked in the sunshine with its window becomes very hot due to the greenhouse effect.
2. Rooms of a house in cold countries whose windows are closed and sunlight fall on then become warm due to the greenhouse.
3. Solar cookers and solar furnace are heated due the greenhouse effect.
Advantages of artificial greenhouse
1. It provides the controlled environment for plants inside it. The plants which can be found in the desert can be grown in the Himalayan region inside it.
2. Those plants which are obtained in summer can be planted in winter inside it.....
