Cloud Greenhouse Effect

The Cloud Greenhouse Effect is the radiative phenomenon in which clouds absorb and re-emit outgoing longwave radiation from the Earth's surface and lower atmosphere, thereby warming the troposphere through selective trapping of infrared energy relative to clear-sky conditions.
