Why are carbon dioxide and water vapor called the greenhouse gases?
Venus
infrared radiation emitted by Earth is absorbed by carbon dioxide and water vapor in the atmosphere
carbon dioxide
infrared radiation
radiation from the Earth and insolation from the Sun
The greenhouse traps long-wave infrared radiation.
They are good absorbers of infrared radiation.
