| Domain | Definition |
Energy | The portion of the natural background radiation that is emitted by naturally occurring radioactive materials, such as uranium, thorium, and radon in the earth. (references) |
Solar | Electromagnetic radiation that is emitted by the Earth, as opposed to solar radiation emitted by the sun. (references) |
Weather | The total infrared radiation emitted by the Earth and its atmosphere in the temperature range of approximately 200 to 300 Kelvin. Terrestrial radiation provides a major part of the potential energy changes necessary to drive the atmospheric wind system and is responsible for maintaining the surface air temperature within limits of livability.
