Answer to Question 1

Incoming solar radiation (insolation) can be reflected, scattered, absorbed by atmospheric constituents, or transmitted to the Earth's surface where it is absorbed or reflected. Outgoing terrestrial radiation can be transferred via radiative transfer and nonradiative transfer mechanisms. This radiation can be absorbed by atmospheric gases and re-radiated towards the Earth's surface (greenhouse effect) or transmitted back to space.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
