Because sunlight penetrates to greater depths in land than in water.
Land is dry, but water washes up onto water surfaces making it wet.

What happens when you mix ice water and saturated water?
Saturated water is water that's passed its boiling point yet hasn't evaporated yet. When putting ice water within this boiling-hot water, the heat energy from the boiling water transfers rapidly into the ice water, mixing the two and rapidly changing temperatures.
What is hydro thermal energy kids version?
Hydrothermal energy is generated through the earth's hot water. The water is produced underground, and heated by the earth's thermal heat.
How does the sun affect the weather on earth?
The sun affects the weather on earth because the suns heat makes water evaporate from earths surface.
When water boils in a pan on a hot burner how does heat get to the water?
The only way to 'place' water on a hot burner is when it is a solid (ice), or as a container of liquid water Naturally, the hot burner would melt it into a liquid and rapidly boid it away into water vapor (gas)
How do you recover geothermal energy?
After drilling into the Earth to the heat, it is used to turn water to steam, to turn a turbine.
What does the heat radiated from the earth surfaces do?
land and water, and warms them. it also bonces in to the universe.
What does heat radiated from Earth's surface do?
absorbed by earth surfaces, land and water
What causes atmospheric air to be rapidly heated?
In the atmosphere, warm surfaces can heat the air above them. High pressure in the atmosphere is what causes the air to rapidly heat.
Which statement best describes a difference between land and water surfaces?
Land surfaces heat up and cool down faster than water surfaces.
What is wind energy exactly?
It is the reaction of the Sun's rays of light and heat to our Earth's surfaces.
Which object would heat most rapidly water or asphalt?
grass
How do water and land surfaces differ in their abilities to absorb and radiated heat energy?
Land absorbs more heat energy than water does.
Which surfaces absorb heat?
All surfaces absorb some heat.
What is the difference between the way black and white surfaces affect light?
White surfaces reflect light and heat. Black surfaces do not reflect light and they absorb heat.White surfaces reflect light and heat.

Why is water in a swimming pool cooler than the surrounding sidewalk?
One of the qualities of water is that it takes a lot of energy to heat it or to cool it.
Which object would heat up most rapidly water asphalt grass cement?
grass
Why does shiny surfaces absorbe more energy then dull surfaces?
Because, shiny surfaces reflect heat, they don't emit much heat and they don't absorb much heat!
