balance energético; balance radiativo; equilibrio térmico de la Tierra: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que el giro apropiado para aludir al equilibrio térmico de la Tierra por la radiación que recibe y emite es balance radiativo [también llamado balance energético], y no balance radiactivo, pues este concepto no tiene relación directa con la radiactividad. [...] De modo más general, el Vocabulario científico y técnico de la Real Academia de Ciencias Exactas, Físicas y Naturales (España) explica que radiativo es la ‘cualidad atribuible a la radiación electromagnética’. Por otra parte, radiactivo viene definido en el Diccionario académico como ‘que tiene radiactividad’ y por tanto alude a las radiaciones emitidas por los átomos cuando se desintegran, como ocurre, por ejemplo, con el radio, el uranio y el plutonio. 1, record 1, Spanish, - balance%20radiativo%20de%20la%20Tierra
