Natural heat distribution mechanisms on the planet, such as convection, radiation, and conduction, play key roles in regulating Earth's temperature. Convection currents in the atmosphere and oceans circulate heat from the equator towards the poles, balancing temperature differences. Radiation from the sun warms the surface, while heat is transferred through conduction between air, water, land, and ice. Together, these mechanisms help maintain the planet's overall temperature balance and climate systems.
