11 Citations | This formation mechanism suggests that a source for this potentially dangerous greenhouse gas might be the recombination of SF5(X2A1) and CF3(X2A1) radicals on aerosol particles in the terrestrial atmosphere. |
| The rate of greenhouse-gas increase may be as important as the final concentrations reached. | |
26 Citations | Our results show that large asymmetries exist not only in the quantitative contribution of the different activities to greenhouse gas emissions, but also in the decomposed effects of this contribution. |

What is the order of the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere?5 answersThe order of concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, from highest to lowest, is carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and other greenhouse gases such as halocarbons and hydroxyl. CO2 is the most abundant greenhouse gas, with levels increasing from 320 ppm to 412 ppm between 1960 and 2019. CH4 concentrations reached 1877 ± 2 ppb in 2019, while N2O levels were at 332.0 ± 0.1 ppb. The latitudinal and height profiles of these gases show higher concentrations in the northern hemisphere, likely due to emissions originating from this region. The increase in CO2 is the largest contributor to radiative forcing by long-lived greenhouse gases, accounting for about 80% of the increase from 1990 to 2019.
