For the same reason that it happens in other fluids. The hot air (in this case) has a tendency to rise, and colder air, to sink, due to differences in density.

Where convection can happen?
convection happens in liquid
Where do convection and conduction occur in the atmosphere?
BLA
The process by which hot and cold air are transferred in the atmosphere is?
I think it is tides or upwelling?
Heat is transferred throughout the atmosphere primarily by?
Convection
What happen as thermal energy is transferred from the core to the mantle?
CONVECTION CURRENT is the answer.
What produced convection currents in Earth's atmosphere?
what produces convection currents in earth's atmosphere
Why does convection take place in the atmosphere?
Convection take place because of convection currents
Is there convection in the atmosphere?
Yes!
What is Major source of energy that powers the convection currents in the atmosphere and ocean?
Vertical convection in both the ocean and atmosphere is caused by uneven HEATing.The source of energy for convection in the ocean and atmosphere is heating from the sun.
This is not part of the suns atmosphere?
convection zone.
Where convection can happen?
convection happens in liquid
The Sun heats Earth's atmosphere unevenly This causes convection currents to move in large circles in the atmosphere What is the result of convection currents in the atmosphere?
Study Island answer: Wind
How is the atmosphere affected by the convection?
The atmosphere is affected by convention because convection heats the lower atmosphere. Radiation transfers energy which other gases heat up. Conduction does not impact the atmosphere in these same ways.
Does A stable atmosphere acts to increase fire behavior by enhancing convection?
A stable atmosphere acts to increase fire behavior by enhancing convection
What is the results of convection currents in the atmosphere?
Wind.
Where do convection and conduction occur in the atmosphere?
BLA
How is the atmosphere affected by conduction convection radiation?
The atmosphere is affected by convention because convection heats the lower atmosphere. Radiation transfers energy which other gases heat up. Conduction does not impact the atmosphere in these same ways.
