1 In the climate system these forms of heat transfer are manifested in the motion of the atmosphere and ocean, on both local and global scales.  Radiation: The transfer of energy through electromagnetic waves. This form of energy transfer does not require the presence of matter to occur. In this form energy can travel through empty space from the Sun to the Earth and other planets in the solar system. Radiation also occurs within the climate system between the earth's surface and the atmosphere, and within the atmosphere and ocean.
Energy goes back to space from the Earth system in two ways: reflection and emission. Part of the solar energy that comes to Earth is reflected back out to space in the same, short wavelengths in which it came to Earth. The fraction of solar energy that is reflected back to space is called the albedo.he temperature of the sun's radiating surface, or photosphere, is more than 5500Â°C (9900Â°F). However, not all of the sun's energy comes to Earth. The sun's energy is emitted in all directions, with only a small fraction being in the direction of the Earth.
