Infrared heat rises from the surface of the earth into the troposphere (the lowest level of the atmosphere). It is captured there by greenhouse gases, so the troposphere warms. This is called the greenhouse effect, and too much greenhouse gas means global warming.

How does the sun affect the weather on earth?
The sun affects the weather on earth because the suns heat makes water evaporate from earths surface.
What brought molten rock to the surface?

Why earths interior is warmer than earths surface?
Earth's surface is free to radiate heat into space. The interior is not. The interior does transfer heat the the surface, but rather slowly. It is hot due to residual heat from Earth's formation and from the heat generated by the decay of radioactive elements.
How do sand dunes effect earths surface?

How do hurricanes affect the earths surface?
they obviously destroy things...
How is heat from earths interior transferred to earths surface by convections?
Beneath the surface of the earth temperature remains the same. Within the Earth, irregular convection cells within the mantle transfer heat from the core to the surface of the planet. Volcanoes and earthquakes are two examples of heat transferring from the interior to the surface.
Hoe does air circulate around earths surface?
