Most of it is reflected back into space.
Energy from the sun that is absorbed by the Earth's surface is reflected back into the atmosphere or absorbed by land and water and transformed into heat.
absorbed
the greenhouse
Roughly 70% of the sun's energy is absorbed by the Earth's surface. The rest is reflected back into space or absorbed by the atmosphere.
What happens to Solar Energy is that some of it gets absorbed into air, land and water while the rest gets reflected back to space.
the answer is conduction
About 50% of the sun's radiation that reaches Earth's atmosphere is absorbed by the Earth's surface. The remaining energy is either reflected back to space or absorbed by the atmosphere.

Energy from the sun that is absorbed by the Earth's surface is reflected back into the atmosphere or absorbed by land and water and transformed into heat.
The energy from the sun that is absorbed by the Earth's surface is converted into heat. This heat is then re-radiated back into the atmosphere, contributing to the Earth's overall temperature and driving weather patterns and climate systems.
Some is absorbed by the earths air water and soil. The remainder is reflected.
