Discover how Earth’s atmospheric processes are driven by energy from the sun. We look at three major topics; Solar Radiation and Earth’s Seasons, Earth’s Geography and Climate and El Niño and La Niña. This lesson follows how the different rays of energy from the sun create heat on Earth that generates movement of water and atmospheric materials. This movement and its interactions with geologic features like mountains creates localized weather and longterm climates.
