Clearly explain the significant differences between UV and infrared radiation and how this relates to the greenhouse effect
What will be an ideal response
The wavelengths of UV and infrared radiation are very different, the wavelengths of UV being relatively small, while the wavelengths of infrared radiation being relatively large. The larger wavelength radiation of infrared has an increasingly difficult time passing back out through the Earth's atmosphere as the concentrations of greenhouse gases increase.
