Green House Gas Absorption Rates & the Greenhouse Effect: WATER VAPOR...

Water is the main absorber of the sunlight in the atmosphere; without it, the Earth would be in a permanent ice-age. Water Vapor constitutes approximately 95% of all greenhouse gases that absorb infrared (long wave) radiation on earth.










The 13 million million tons of water in the atmosphere (~0.33% by weight; compare CO2 ~0.04%) is responsible for about 70% of all atmospheric absorption of radiation, mainly in the infrared region where water shows strong absorption. It contributes significantly to the greenhouse effect ensuring a warm habitable planet...
