up & more atmosphere to pass through *Length of the day & night Some radiation is absorbed by ozone, water vapour, co2, ice particles, and dust reduce the amount reaching Earth. & clouds also reflect radiation back! ALBEDO is the ratio between the amount of incoming and reflected radiation. (Usually at 4%) Short wave radiation is converted to heat and heats the surface of earth, while longer radiation (infrared) is radiated back into atmosphere. Longer wave tends to get trapped

THE ECONOMICS OF POLYGAMY Amyra Shechtman Grossbard, UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA INTRODUCTION Polygamy can take the form of polyandry (several men share a woman) or of polygyny (a man marries several women).
