Climatology
An absorption spectrum is a spectrum that shows the wavelengths of light absorbed by a substance, typically observed as dark lines or bands against a continuous spectrum. This phenomenon occurs when specific wavelengths of light are absorbed by atoms or molecules in a medium, which can be directly linked to the greenhouse effect and atmospheric absorption as certain gases selectively absorb infrared radiation, influencing the Earth's energy balance.
congrats on reading the definition of absorption spectrum. now let's actually learn it.
