| This gas is the major cause of the "greenhouse effect" and people are more concerned with the idea that the emissions of this gas should be minimized. | |
50 Citations | The natural greenhouse effect arises due to some of the trace gases, called the greenhouse gases, which are nearly transparent to solar radiation but strongly absorb the infra-red radiation emitted by the Earth. |
| Soil O2 was a good predictor of greenhouse gas concentrations. | |
58 Citations | Finally the sea level rise, the most threatening effect of the greenhouse problem for the Netherlands, is estimated. Simulation results so far emphasize the importance of trace gases other than CO2. |
| Not only does this radiatively absorptive gas contribute directly to the “greenhouse effect”, but it is also a powerful oxidant and is recognised to be one of the most widespread toxic agents to which vegetation is exposed. | |
| Measures which might stabilize the greenhouse effect include energy conservation and improved energy efficiency, a transition to hydrogen rather than carbon as a source of fuel, and reforestation. | |
866 Citations | The main greenhouse gas, water vapour, will increase in response to global warming and further enhance it. |
| At higher CO2 prices, afforestation and biofuels are more dominant among terrestrial options to offset greenhouse gas emissions. | |
| Atmospheric water vapour is the most important greenhouse gas responsible for approximately 60% of the natural greenhouse effect which amounts to ca. | |
01 May 2016 | Alternatively, greenhouse gas emissions can increase with hydrogen fuel depletion. |
249 Citations | Non-CO2 greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are now adding to the greenhouse effect by an amount comparable to the effect of CO2. |
16 Citations | Carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere, a greenhouse gas, may also provide benefits for mankind: many plants grow better under increasing CO2 concentrations. |
36 Citations | Hot spots and hot moments of greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes can contribute significantly to overall GHG budgets. |
| On a per molecule basis, it is much more effective a greenhouse gas than additional CO2. | |
39 Citations | The greenhouse with CO2 supplied from bottles turns out to be superior to tthe greenhouse with CO2 supplied by burning gas. |
| Both those factors will impact on improvement of energy intensity, carbon productivity as well as greenhouse gas emissions per capita. |

Which greenhouse gas is more responsible for the greenhouse effect?4 answersWater vapor is the most responsible greenhouse gas for the greenhouse effect, accounting for 85-90% of the effect. Carbon dioxide (CO2) constitutes only 3.6% of the greenhouse effect and has increased by a small increment since emissions began to rise after 1945. Methane concentrations have more than doubled since pre-industrial times, making it another significant greenhouse gas. Nitrous oxide is also an important greenhouse gas, with a slow but steady increase in recent decades. While CO2 is a major contributor to the greenhouse effect, water vapor, methane, and nitrous oxide have a larger impact overall.
