What Does ERB Stand For?
ERB stands for Earth Radiation Budget
The Earth Radiation Budget (ERB) refers to the balance between the energy received from the sun and the energy radiated back into space by the Earth. It plays a critical role in understanding the planet's climate system, as it affects temperature distribution, weather patterns, and overall climate change. Scientists use various satellite measurements and ground-based observations to monitor the ERB, providing essential data for climate modeling and environmental research. The study of the ERB helps inform policy decisions related to climate mitigation and adaptation strategies.
