Heat Transfer
How is Heat Transferred
-
-
Radiation
-
Most heat from the sun travels to one as infrared radiation, infrared is not visible
Heating the Troposphere
Earth's surface is warmed by both conduction and radiation, making the land warmer than air
First few meters of the troposphere heated by conduction, making the air closer to the surface warmer
-
Hotter faster moving particles closer to the surface bump into each other and push themselves farther apart creating convection currents
