If methane decreased, . . .

• there would be more energy in the Earth system and more energy absorbed by Earth’s surface, because more energy would enter than exit.

• there would be more energy in the Earth system and more energy absorbed by Earth’s surface, because less energy would enter than exit.

• there would be less energy in the Earth system and less energy absorbed by Earth’s surface, because less energy would enter than exit.

• there would be less energy in the Earth system and less energy absorbed by Earth’s surface, because more energy would enter than exit.

How do scientists collect evidence about climate?

• Using remote sensing from space satellites.

• By ground based measurements of surface temperature carbon dioxide concentration and sea level.

• . By collecting "proxy data" from tree rings, ice cores and historical records

• All of the above

Climate researchers are creating a computer simulation to help them understand changes In The earth system they want to use the simulation to see what happens when they increase the Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. What should their stimulation show about energy absorbed by earths surface? When carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases the amount of energy absorbed by Earths surface.

• Increase

• decrease

• Stay it a constant level

• Change
