Problem 2
(1) What would the earth's temperature be if the greenhouse effect increases by 10% from the present value of 149.98Wm2?(4 Points)
(2) Consider two different greenhouse gases A and B having the same molecular weight. The lifetime of A is 200 years while the lifetime of B is 100 years. The values for the spectral overlap of A and B with infrared radiation from Earth are 0.15Wm2 and 0.20Wm2, respectively. Please calculate the ratio of A's global warming potential (GWP) to B's GWP over a 60-year time horizon. (6 Points)
