Option B Solution: Even after the sunset when the sun goes down, the incoming radiation from the sun stops, but there is still a lot of radiation that has been absorbed by the earth, which is re-radiated in form of terrestrial radiation.Energy leaving the earth’s surface i.e. terrestrial radiation heats up the atmosphere more than the incoming solar radiation i.e. insolation.
