  The atmosphere is critical to climate change. It can amplify shifts in the climate system, and also mitigate them. This primer offers a short, reader-friendly introduction to these atmospheric processes and how they work. It looks at how our climate system receives energy from the sun and sheds it by emitting infrared radiation back into space.
