There are multiple ways to transfer body heat into the air. You can feel the transfer of body heat every time you cool off. It feels cool because the heat is going away.
1. One way to transfer body heat is by convection. This means there is a breeze blowing and the cool air takes away the heat. You can feel it!
2. Another way is by evaporation. You can feel this when you get sprayed with water or you are sweaty, and it feels cool when this moisture evaporates.
3. Another way is by radiation. This type of cooling off is what you feel when you take off your clothes in the wintertime. You can't see it, but you are radiating heat to the room around you.
You actually do a little bit of these things all the time. The clothes you wear either help you stay cool or stay warm, depending on the weather.

Is it true the sun is important to wind?
The sun heats the Earth and this energy is transferred to the atmosphere. Warm air rises and cooler air sinks. This causes winds and many other weather effects SO yeas sun is important to wind creation.r
How does a hurricane get its energy from warm water?
Moisture evaporates from the water. The resulting warm moist air carries enormous amounts of energy. When this air is pulled into a developing hurricane it rises and as a result cools and condenses, releasing that energy.Energy of a warm sea is transferred to a hurricane by water evaporating into a hurricane.
Why is the air troposphere unstable most of the time?
Because it is being heated from below, and warm air likes to rise. Solar radiation generally does not heat the atmosphere, but heats the earth's surface, which then radiates thermal energy (heat) back into the atmosphere. Since this warm air rises, there tends to be constant vertical motion in the lower atmosphere, which is the essence of instability.
How does the suns energy affect the climate of an area?
It affects how warm the atmosphere is.
What is the natural process where the sun's energy is trapped by the atmosphere to make the Earth warm enough for life?
The greenhouse effect captures the sun's energy and keeps the earth warm.

Where does the wind get its energy from?
The Sun. A fraction of the suns energy heats the air. Warm air rises higher into the atmosphere and cooler, more dense, air moves in to replace it causing the wind.
How does earth bounce back heat into the atmosphere?
Warm air rises through convection.
Why does precicpitation occur when warm air rises?
When air rises in the atmosphere it decompresses and cools. This can cause moisture in the air to condense and form precipitation.
What causes earth surface to get warm?
Sunlight. The warmth rises into the atmosphere where some is trapped by greenhouse gases. These warm gases then warm the earth's surface again.
What is the benefit of the atmosphere trapping energy from the sun?
The benefit of the atmosphere trapping energy from the sun is to keep Earth warm.
