The melting of the snowman will be a result of both radiative and convective heat transfer. The sun will directly pour energy into the snowman as radiative heat transfer (although a lot would be reflected too) and the surrounding air, as it is warmed by the sun or by the ground that the sun shines on will transfer heat via convection.

∙ 9y agoConvection is the transfer of heat that occurs through gases or liquids from a warmer spot to a cooler spot. This accounts for the snowman melting when the sun warms the air around the snowman. The heat in the air is taking energy from its surroundings, so the snowman is melting or sinking.
