Aerosols permanently contribute to the attenuation of solar radiation and reflection of terrestrial radiation. Thus, they define at any time the radiative balances at the top of the atmosphere and on the earth's surface. These characterize the different terrestrial climates and their regional variation through both radiative and non-radiative transfer of energy between the surface, atmosphere and space. The greenhouse effect is described by the integration of solar radiation and increase of total absorptivity of the atmosphere. This study presents a results concerning five sites of different climates located in north subtropical zone: Kanpur, Majads, Osaka, Bakersfield and Tizi-Ouzou. Using simple model, Annual Columnar Radiative Absorptivity (ACRA19) that describes the terrestrial radiation balance in annual mean, we determine the various absorptivity by the atmosphere AVA and by surface SVA and reflectivity ra of solar radiation and atmospheric thermal absorptivity ATA. Kanpur observes a very high AVA in agreement with the increase of total optical thickness registered by AERONET (about 0,86 at 1020 nm). Tizi-Ouzou and Osaka register also relative high absorptivity of distinct origin, the high concentration of Saharan desert dust DD particles for the first and more anthropogenic activities biomass burning/ Urban Industrial (BB/UI) for the second. Because of the high AVA, nearly 50% of incoming solar radiation is absorbed by the atmosphere. Aerosols contribute to the absorption of infrared by the atmosphere, almost 95% of the Long-wave at the atmosphere is absorbed by the atmosphere in Kanpur. These results also explain the warming tendency of the atmospheric column due to the aerosol component.
