the earths atmosphere is not heated by the sun. The suns light comes in through the atmosphere. 25% of it is lost through reflection and then 50% is used to heat the surface of the earth, which then makes the Earth warmer, and heats up the atmosphere. This heat is then stored around the earth because of the ozone layer, keeping us warm.
Convection and conduction are means of transferring heat through the atmosphere. Technically radiation is too, but it is the one that doesn't need an atmosphere to travel through - it also travels through space.
1. the reflection off clouds in the Troposphere
2. the reflection off the earth surfaces eg. snow ,water and shiny surfaces
3. By radiation scattered by wind and dust

in what three ways is heat transferred to the atmosphere
Atmosphere is heated because of the sun! Greenhouse gases capture the heat and warm the atmosphere. This is called the greenhouse effect.
i dont know why cant you answer it for me
through us
The lower atmosphere is heated by the ground, which is heated by sunlight.
it is heated by conduction by the earths atmosphere
The air being heated by the sun. (apex chemistry question)
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as "Infrared Radiation."
