Morphology

atmospherically = atmospheric (transparent) = atmosphere + ic + ally

The adverb is directly formed by adding the productive adverbial suffix '-ally' to the adjective 'atmospheric', which itself is transparently derived from 'atmosphere' + '-ic'.

Etymology

Atmospherically comes from atmosphere, which itself comes from the Greek parts atmos 'vapour' and sphaira 'sphere', meaning the round layer of air around Earth. So atmospherically means 'in a way that has to do with the air or weather'.
