Warm, moist air in the atmosphere causes an increase in ocean temperatures. This is one processes that describes the effect Earth's atmosphere has on Earths hydrosphere.
Explanation:
When the atmosphere is warm, this heat is transferred to the oceans by conduction - because the two systems are not isolated from each other they share matter and energy. The warmer the atmosphere the warmer the oceans become. Moist air also means that the atmosphere cannot accommodate as much more moisture. Therefore oceans cannot lose much heat by evaporation. Collectively, warm moist air causes a significant rise in ocean temperatures.
