No. If the air is warmer than the ground any movement of heat by conduction will be from the air to the ground.

How is heat transferred within the earth's atmosphere?
Heat in earth's atmosphere is transferred by: Radiation, Conduction, & Convection. ((:
Describe how radiation.conductionconvection heat up atmosphere?
describe how radiation,conduction,and convection heat up atmosphere?
What is the least important mechanism of heat transfer in the whole atmosphere?
Conduction
How is most of the heat energy in the atmosphere transferred?
Radiation, conduction and convection,
How can energy be transfers between the geosphere and atmosphere?
through convection when the surface is warmer than the air the heat from the ground goes up and the cold from the air goes down
Will heat move from the ground to atmosphere by conduction if the air is warmer than the ground?
No because it only transfers of energy as heat through materials

How does heat energy get from earths surface to air?
If the earth is warmer than the air, the air in contact with earth will heat the air by conduction. This now-warmer air expands and so can rise and be replaced by cooler air, which is heated in turn. This air movement is convection, so both conduction and convection allow energy to be transferred to the air above it. There is very little radiative heating of the air near the ground, but clouds do absorb (and reflect) heat from the earth by radiation in the infrared.
What does conduction mean in weather terms?
Conduction is the transfer of heat from an area of warmer temperature to an area of colder temperature.
Why does absorbing infrared make the atmosphere warmer?
Infrared are the radiations that contain heat. Absorbing them will make atmosphere warmer.
When two objects are in direct contact the heat is transfered by?
Heat will be transferred by conduction from the warmer surface to the colder one.
Which of the following is a true statement about heat transfer through conduction convection or radiation Heat is NOT related to temperature differences. Heat ALWAYS flows from warmer objects to coole?
Heat flows from warmer to cooler.
How is most of the heat energy in the atmosphere transferred?
Radiation, conduction and convection,
What are the three types of heat transfer in the atmosphere?
Convection, conduction and radiation
What is the least important mechanism of heat transfer in the whole atmosphere?
Conduction
