Greenhouse Gases and Global Warming

The physical state of the climate system is determined by the interactions among the sun, atmosphere, biosphere (including humans), cryosphere (ice and snow), hydrosphere, and geosphere. Because of its complexity, a complete description of the climate system is beyond our capabilities. The use of observations and models can, however, increase our understanding of fundamental processes important in controlling the Earth’s mean climatic state.
