hi the thing i want to say is if i say it theorotically you wont understand still i will give you it at the end now- what earth surface is basically that there is a gas formation we caall atmosphere stratosphere etc once we need to cross it we need a lot of pressure that is why it is called escaping now in the theorotical way we can say that-

Solar energy and gravitational energy are the fundamental sources of energy for the Earth's climate system.

In the ideal case (referred to as "black body") matter will absorb all the energy impinging on it in the form of electromagnetic waves and as a result will warm up and itself become a radiation source. This "give and take" of energy leads to a state of equilibrium, where the outgoing radiation balances the incoming one.

The energy radiated from a black body is distributed over all wavelengths, in a "bell-shaped" dependence on the wavelength. Maximum energy is radiated at a wavelength proportional to the inverse of the absolute temperature.

The total (integral over all wavelengths) energy radiated from a black body is proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature.

The energy flux radiating from a point source falls of as the square of the distance from it. This is why light dims fast as one moves away from its source.

Using these fundamental laws and knowing the Sun's temperature, we can calculate the so-called "effective" or "emission" temperature of any of its surrounding planets. This is the temperature that the plant will appear to have when viewed from outer space.

The Earth and other planets are not perfect black bodies, as they do not absorb all the incoming solar radiation but reflected part of it back to space. The ratio between the reflected and the incoming energies is termed the planetary albedo.

Because of its spherical shape incoming solar radiation is not equally distributed over the planet. At each instant, only the sun lights only half of the planet's surface, with maximum radiation coming in at local noon and less in other times of the day.

The total daily radiation decreases from equator to pole. Thus the Earth's surface should inherently be warmer at the equator than it is at the poles. However, …

The Earth's axis of rotation tilts at a 23.5° away from the plane of rotation around the sun, that makes the poles point towards the sun during solstice time. This is the reason for the seasons. During solstice, the pole pointing to the sun and the surrounding area receive radiation during all 24 hours of the day while the opposite pole does not receive any solar energy. This has the potential for making the poles as warm or warmer than the equator in their respective summer time if it were not for the large albedo of the Polar Regions.
