How an Atmospheric Technician Assesses the Gases in our Atmosphere

Greenhouse Gas

The green house effect is one of the primary reasons for the pollution in our air. Sunrays come through the atmosphere and they hit ground. Areas of ice and snow have a higher albedo therefore they reflect the sunrays back into space. However areas that are dark in color will absorb rays which changes the wavelength of radiation and then sends it back. Since the wavelengths have changed greenhouse gases and clouds pick it up and then reflect it back to the earth. Radiation is heat that can't escape the atmosphere so that is why global warming is referred to as "the greenhouse effect". Once ice melts there is less to reflect the radiation back to the atmosphere therefore there is more radiation so the earth is warming up quicker>More

Climate Change

Climate Research Analyst is a person who researches, prepares and delivers reports on the climate. These reports will vary, depending on the specifics of the analysis, but all analysis' will involve climate issues; for instance, a climate research analyst might research and report on changes in the climate of a particular region over the previous 10 or 20 years, or perhaps might make comparison reports on the climate changes of an area who uses ozone-depleting products versus the climate changes of a separate area who use much less of the same products>More

Carbon Sequestration Plant Operator

Carbon Sequester

This is a fairly new field of study, but it is growing rapidly, so there is going to be a demand for knowledgeable workers in this field. Earning amount is hard to gauge and may change. Carbon dioxide is created in large amounts by the burning of fossil fuels. To cut down on the pollution caused by this, some scientists have put forward the idea of catching the carbon dioxide that is produced by coal burning factories and other power generating factories. Then the carbon dioxide could be pumped deep underground or under the ocean floor to be stored. >More
