Summary[edit]

Summary
Description This figure is a simplified, schematic representation of the flows of energy between space, the atmosphere, and the Earth's surface, and shows how these flows combine to trap heat near the surface and create the greenhouse effect. Energy exchanges are expressed in watts per square meter (W/m2).

Data is from 2007 CERES satellite instruments, and specifically this diagram

Year 2021 update (not in diagram): Net absorbed energy (shown as 0.6) rose to above 1.0 W/m2 based on independent CERES and ocean heat content measurements.(see fig.1 in Loeb et al.(2021), Geoph. Res. Let 48 (13), doi:10.1029/2021GL093047)
