The Earth's Radiation Balance

The resource is suitable to teach energy balance in the earth-atmospheric-ocean system. Educators should note that incoming solar radiation reaching the earth's surface does not reflect into space, especially if it radiates on a black body, it re-emits in the form of Infrared radiation as a longwave. The radiation that remains supplies heat at night in the form of terrestrial energy, thereby not allowing our nights to be too cold. Only incoming solar radiation that is reflected in space reaches light surfaces (reflectors such as clouds, snow ice, and the atmosphere). There is a contradiction in the aspect that incoming radiation, when it reaches the soil, reflects solar radiation to space. Soil is a black body (100% emitter, it conducts and transfers heat downward the soil and at the surface). Other aspects of this resource are suitable.
