The atmosphere is also to a degree warmed by absorbed light. However, the transference of heat through the air (while slowed because the thermal frequencies do not pass through without being absorbed and reemmited), is relatively quick. One mole of air occupies much greater area than a mole of water. So at a relevant common temperature,, there is much greater energy in volume area in the water than the air. The fact that the air is mostly trasparent to the high energy visible light while the ocean is not, means that the temperature of the air is determined by the temperature of the ocean. The heat is transfering from the ocean to the air, and through the air mainly be convection. This is called weather. The energy of the wind air currents are due to the differences in weight of warm or cold air. The force of gravity induces movement of the different weights of air masses..... The atmosphere is always attempting to reach equalization between the warm air masses of the equator and the cold air masses of the poles. The energy of the convection can be formulated by obtaining the differences in weight and the effect of gravity. For the air masses to retain their heat, it is clear that the thermal frequencies are not passing through directly but are trapped. If most of the energy passed through except what is trapped by GHG's., there would not be enough trapped energy to cause the change of density. due to the expansion caused by heating, to formulate the weather. ""which doesn't stop CO2 & H20 recycling IR lower down in the > atmosphere and causing heating of the lower troposphere.""" This is false dynamics. In deserts temperature's are higher without the water vapor. In any climate in the summer, high humidity keeps the temperature down. On days with low humidity or dew point, the temperaure climbs higher in the afternoon. Wher is the greenhouse effect of water vapor? A made up dynamic. No science at all to back up your dynamics there buddy. Maybe it sounds all good to you. But the fact is, heat is a quantity.. If you cannot quantify your energy, you are not doing physics. Show me the calories from the CO2, to the air, to the ocean and land mass, or else it is correct to say because proper physics proves this to be true that; "IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR CO2 TO CAUSE GLOBAL WARMING" Kent Deatherge http://home.earthlink.net/~kdthrge

Most of it is absorbed by the ghgs (350W/m^2) which is what causes the heating near the surface and hence convection. Some does pass directly through the atmosphere by virtue of the IR window region (~40 W/m^2 out of 492 W/m^2 from the surface). > > ""which doesn't stop CO2 & H20 recycling IR lower down in the > > atmosphere and causing heating of the lower troposphere.""" > > This is false dynamics.

Perhaps you are unaware that it gets very cold at night in those deserts, in fact you can freeze water in a bowl overnight by raditional cooling (due to the absence of the gh effect of H2O)!
