Energy+transfer+in+the+troposphere

My partner and I are learning about heat tranfer in the tropospher It's important beause its the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere. It's related to heat transfer because as altitude increaces temp. decreaces.. The troposphere is what we live in because of course we would die in space.The troposhpere is 0-10km which is the clouds and below. The statoshpere is right above the troposphere. Radiation-Most of the sun's radiation hits the Earth and makes it hot in the troposphere. Conduction-tranfers heatfrom water and land. Convection-Moves heat through the troposphere, while the surface air is heated by the radiation and conduction, the rising warm air is replaced by denser, downward-flowing cool air. When the earths surface is heateda lot of the energy is radiated back as infrarred radiation. some radiation is absorbed by gases in the atmosphere. I wanted to talk about this topic because we live in it and I thought that you'd like to know about our home in the troposphere. VIDEO>hhtp://vimeo.com/1914789<VIDEO Isaiah and Troy
