Much of the sun’s radiation is reflected back into space by the earth’s rotation climate revolution atmosphere

Right atmosphere

When the Sun radiation comes to the Earth, a part is absorbed and the other is reflected by the clouds in the atmosphere and the Earth’s surface.

This is called albedo, which is the percentage of radiation that any surface reflects with respect to the incident radiation. Clear surfaces have higher albedo values than dark ones, and bright ones more than matt ones. In this sense, Earth’s average albedo is about 0.3. In other words, about 30 percent of solar radiation that comes to the Earth is reflected back into space and 70 percent is absorbed.

Therefore:

Much of the sun’s radiation is reflected back into space by the earth’s atmosphere

Early in the story when tom finds an indian skull in the woods which he kicks in temper. the devil then makes his appearance and, as tom surveys him, he notices that the devil is neither "negro" nor "indian." in fact, he has a "swarthy" complexion and is "begrimed with soot."

Mantle convection is the process that drives plate tectonics. the theory of plate tectonics states that the crust is divided into plates that float on the semi molten mantle below. the circular motion of the magma as it slowly rises and falls or move though convection cells drags the plates along causing them to move. the heat source in the lamp would represent the earth's core. the core is the source of energy that drives convection in the mantle. the lava represents molten magma under the earth's surface. if the lava lamp had floating pieces they would move as the circular motion of the lava in the lamp as it rises and falls would move them along the surface. these floating pieces would represent pieces of the earth's crust.
