One-dimensional models, although limited, are excellent tools to study basic features of a physical system. In this document, the equations of one-dimensional energy balance modelo for Earth are presented and described, along with a Fortran 90 program. Some experiments are performed with this model to show basic Earth's climate behavior. Several others experiments are possible and it is believed that the availability of its Fortran 90 code will help a lot of students use it in their initial Earth's climate learning.
