The earths surface transfers heat to the atmosphere primarily by?
the answer is radiation
Why doesn't the ultraviolet radiation from the sun reach the ground?
It does, but in very small amounts because it is absorbed by Earths atmosphere. The ozonosphere blocks most of the UV radiation from striking the surface of earth.
Why can you stand on the earths surface but not the Moon's surface?
You can stand on the moon surface if you can get there
Do clouds reduce the daily temperature range?
This depends on what you are measuring the temperature of. Clouds tend to reduce the amount of radiation from the sun that reaches the Earths surface, thus feeling cooler to us when we are outside.
How much more is Earths surface of gravity than the Moon's?
Earths surface of gravity is 4.6m/s2 more than moons.
Why can gamma rays from objects in space not be detected on Earth's surface?
the earths atmosphere absorbs the radiation or reflects it i cant remember which i think it is a combination of both
What does the earths surface emit?
Infrared radiation.
The earths surface transfers heat to the atmosphere primarily by?

What is infrared radiation-?
Infrared radiation is when earths surface radiates some of earths surface back into the atmosphereinfrared radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation, which involves waves rather than particles. This means that unlike conduction and convection radiation can even pass through the vacuum of space.infrared radiation is a form of electromagnetic radiation which is emitted in the form of heat. infrared radiation is invisible
What type of radiation is trapped on the earths surface by the green house effect?
Infrared radiation
What absorbs energy that is radiation from earths surface?
the greenhouse effect!
What type of radiation is reflected away from the earths surface?
Long-wave radiation and visible light.
What is the term for solar radiation that reaches the earth's surface?
The solar radiation that reaches the earths surface from the sun is called INSOLATION
What is the intense heat beneath earths surface can be a source of?
radiation & gravity
When earths surface is heated it radiates most of the energy back into the atmosphere as ultraviolet radiation?
Not as ultraviolet; the radiation is emitted as infrared radiation.
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as?
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as "Infrared Radiation."
Which gas prevents damaging ultraviolet radiation from the sun from reaching earths surface?
Ozone
