conduction because there is more heat in space then there is in earth

What three processes transfer heat over earths surface?
Convection, radiation, and conduction
How is energy tranferred to the air near the surface of the esrth?
A mix of conduction and convection. (We're talking heat energy from solar radiation here.)
Is barbecuing radiation convection or conduction?
Barbecuing, depending on what specific process it is referring to, could be either radiation, convection, or conduction. Radiation is when energy is released in the form of a photon, so the flames of the barbecue (light energy) are a form of radiation. Conduction is when energy is transferred through contact, or collision, therefore, the things you are cooking on the barbecue, are being heated through conduction with the metal. Convection is when energy travels through energy-containing particles (other than photons), so the steam rising from the coals is convection currents.
How does heat energy get from earths surface to air?
If the earth is warmer than the air, the air in contact with earth will heat the air by conduction. This now-warmer air expands and so can rise and be replaced by cooler air, which is heated in turn. This air movement is convection, so both conduction and convection allow energy to be transferred to the air above it. There is very little radiative heating of the air near the ground, but clouds do absorb (and reflect) heat from the earth by radiation in the infrared.
How is radiation and conduction alike?
both radiation and conduction give heat to another object.
What are three ways energy is transferred from earth's surface to the atmosphere?
Conduction, convection and radiation.
How is earth atmosphere warmed evenly?
Energy is transferred between the earths surface and the atmosphere via conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the process by which heat energy is transmitted through contact with neighboring molecules.
Is radiation convection or conduction involved when a lake freezes?
Lake freezes first at the surface is convection involved

Convection, radiation, and conduction
How do conduction convection and radiation affect the movement and temperature of air near the ocean?
Conduction, convection and radiation affects the movement and temperature of air near the ocean. Conduction causes difference in temperatures. For example, during a hot day, land heats up more quickly than water. Water is a better conductor of heat. The air near the land's surface is heated due to conduction and radiation. It expands and rises since it is lighter than surrounding air. This is called convection. To replace the air that rose, the air from the sea's surface blows to land.

Is conduction convection or radiation the way in which the mantle circulates?
The way the mantle circulates is through the process of convection. It refers to the transfer of heat from the Earth's core to the surface.
Heat can be transferred by what?
There are three ways in which heat can be transferred from one surface to another. These three ways are conduction, convection and radiation.
Is heating of air touching a hot surface conduction or convection?
convection
Which of the folling can form in the geosphere and carry heat from earth mantle toward the surface conduction currents infared currents convection currents or surface currents?
in the atmosphere.

An example of conduction convection and radiation working together?
a boiling pot because the stove radiates heat to warm the pot. the pot is touching the stove which is conduction. last when the pot is heated and boiling the steam is a form of convection. conduction could also be ice melting on a hot surface>
