Net‐exchange analysis of the Earth greenhouse effect increase

In this paper, we propose an analysis of the greenhouse effect on the basis of a net‐exchange formulation for clear sky atmospheres. This formulation allows access to exchanges beetwen the differents elements of the atmosphere (gas layers, the ground and space). When the greenhouse gas concentration increases, we first use a simple configuration to analyse the variations of analytic monochromatic net exchange rates. The same type of analysis is then applied to the Earth atmosphere for a clear‐sky middle latitude summer configuration with an increase in water vapour of 20% at all altitudes.
