Climate #2: Thermal Radiation

from Everyday Science · host PSD10 and Little Shop of Physics

How can you show how thermal radiation affects climate? We have liquid crystal, a hot light bulb, some things that will or won't block thermal radiation, and a surface to simulate the earth. With an infrared camera, we can really see what's going on!
