Earth's atmosphere is mainly heated from the ground up because the heat is absorbed into the ground. The warmed surface of the earth then emits heat as infrared radiation which rises into the atmosphere. There the greenhouse gases like water vapour, carbon dioxide and methane absorb and hold the heat.
The Earth's troposphere is mainly heated from the ground up because the Earth's surface absorbs more sunlight than the atmosphere, causing it to warm up. This warmth is then transferred to the air immediately above the ground through conduction and convection, creating a temperature gradient with the surface being warmer than the higher altitudes.
by convection and conduction
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as "Infrared Radiation."
The lower atmosphere is primarily heated by the sun's radiation. As sunlight enters the atmosphere, it warms the Earth's surface, which then emits heat energy back into the atmosphere. This process creates a temperature gradient, with warmer air near the surface and cooler air at higher altitudes.
infrared radiation, which contributes to the greenhouse effect. This process helps trap heat in the atmosphere, leading to the warming of the Earth's surface.

Yes, the Earth's atmosphere is heated by solar energy. Sunlight penetrates the atmosphere and warms the surface of the Earth. This heat is then radiated back into the atmosphere, contributing to its overall temperature.
The sun as it is the most powerful heat source in our solar system.
Air heated to incandescence.
A spacecraft has to work against the air friction when it enters our atmosphere. Thus it gets heated a
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as "Infrared Radiation."
The ground is heated by the sun's rays penetrating the Earth's atmosphere and warming the surface. The heat is absorbed by the ground and retained, which contributes to the overall temperature of the Earth's surface.
It is heated ionised air and matter from the meteorite.
