It 1) moderates it (the swings from hot to cold are minimized),
2) it warms the planet (CO2 & water vapor (etc) trap infrared re-radiation (at night).
Because of the Earths atmosphere, the distance from the Sun, does not affect the temperature on the surface of the Earth. In the northern hemisphere, we are closer to the Sun in winter and the furthest away in summer.
Heat!!

I do not mean to sound rude or patronising but air IS the atmosphere.
Based on temperature differences.
It changes to a next temperture
They slow the loss of heat
Global. Warming
The Earth's atmosphere interacts with the hydrosphere by regulating temperature through heat exchange, driving weather patterns, and influencing the water cycle. Atmospheric conditions such as temperature, pressure, and humidity play a crucial role in shaping the characteristics and behaviors of water bodies on Earth.
The Troposhere has the most water vapor then any other layer in the atmosphere.
It is not, because the greenhouse affect causes global warming.
The greenhouse effect causes the earth's atmosphere to hold in more heat radiation than it should. It is caused by envirormentally harmful chemicals entering the atmosphere, like carbon dioxcide. This ,in turn, causes the global temperature to increase global warming.
