Fascinating… So, water vapor being a significant greenhouse gas, more of the infrared radiated by the earth would get through the atmosphere. Then, I suppose, a wideband IR detector on a weather satellite might interpret that increased radiation as an increase in ground temperature when it was actually energy leaving the earth (and therefore cooling)?I can appreciate that scenario… I have test instruments lie to me every day.
