Natural or man-made alterations in the atmospheric composition which affect the radiative profile and, hence, the earth's temperature and climate are said to be "radiative climate forcing" or simply "forcing". The concept of radiative forcing should not be confused with that of climate change. The rate of climate change depends on much more than simply the rate of change of radiative forcing. Radiative forcing measures the temperature change at the earth's surface that would be observed for a given atmosphere, if there were no climate feedback effects such as increased concentrations of water vapor, changes in atmospheric chemistry reaction rates, cloud feedbacks, albedo changes(via for example, changes in the extent of snow cover or desertification) ;and no system lags such as through ocean thermal inertia. 4, record 8, English, - forcing

The heat collector is a flat plate of blackened metal(steel, aluminum, or copper), to which tubes are attached in any manner which provides good thermal contact. The tubes are connected to headers at the top and bottom of the collector plate, which is insulated to minimize loss of heat from the rear surface.

Thermal blanketing is used to keep satellite cooler or warmer, depending on what is needed. It acts like the insulation in your house : when it's hot outside, insulation keeps cool inside and when it's cold outside, insulation keeps warm air inside. Mylar [is] a very good material for thermal blanketing. Mylar is the trademark name for a polyester film plastic discovered and manufactured by the company DuPont. Mylar has many uses, including insulation, backing for magnet tape, balloons, and as a polyester film used to cover a metallic yarn. Mylar is also used for insulation in space suits.
