Four Systems
of
Our
Earth

Composition of Earth Earth Has 4 main systems that interact:
Earth’s systems
Atmosphere Hydrosphere Biosphere Geosphere

The Atmosphere– layer of gas that surrounds Earth more commonly known as “air”.
![Page 4: Atmosphere Powerpoint](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062513/55591962d8b42a3d028b4ea4/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Atmosphere. How do you know its there
Is this “air” that surrounds us considered matter? Does it weigh anything? How do you know?
Think about it and decide on an answer. Talk in groups with the person who sits by
you Be ready to tell the class what you decided
and why.
![Page 5: Atmosphere Powerpoint](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062513/55591962d8b42a3d028b4ea4/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Weight of the atmosphere Gases are in the
atmosphere. They are things we
learned about in the periodic table: Nitrogen, Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Hydrogen
It is matter! Sound can travel through it.

Even though you can’t see them, Atoms make up gases.
Are some atoms bigger than others? Are their atomic weights all the same?
![Page 7: Atmosphere Powerpoint](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062513/55591962d8b42a3d028b4ea4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Helium vs. Carbon DioxideDo you think of helium as light and floating or heavy and falling?
Do you think about Carbon Dioxide as light and floating or heavy and falling….think about the gas released from dry ice… does it go up or down?

Composition of Earth’s atmosphere Earth Has 4 main systems
that interact: The Atmosphere
Troposphere Contains most clouds and
weather. Temperature cools as you go
higher50% of sun’s energy passes through, 50% is reflected back.
Most of the troposphere’s heat is from Earth (convection)

Troposphere and Clouds Among other gases there is water vapor in
the troposphere. Clouds—form when air rises, cools to its dew
point, and becomes saturated (moist).

Precipitation-falling water in the form of rain, freezing rain, sleet, snow, or hail

Section 2: Earth’s WeatherTroposphere
Weather—the atmosphere’s condition in terms of temperature, cloud cover, wind speed and direction, humidity, and air pressure.
What are different types of weather? ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
![Page 18: Atmosphere Powerpoint](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062513/55591962d8b42a3d028b4ea4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Temperature—a measure of how fast air molecules are moving.
When molecules are moving rapidly, temperature is high.
Celsius and Fahrenheit thermometers measure air temperature.

Energy is transferred between fast-moving molecules and slower-moving molecules.
Conduction—transfer of energy when molecules collide.
Give an example of something heating up due to conduction: __________________________________
Convection occurs when warm air rises and cool air sinks.

Air pressure— air weight that varies over Earth’s surface.
Warmer air is less dense and exerts less pressure.
Cooler air is more dense and exerts more pressure.

Humidity— the amount of water vapor in the air
Temperature affects how much moisture is in the air.
![Page 24: Atmosphere Powerpoint](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062513/55591962d8b42a3d028b4ea4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Dewpoint—when the air is holding as much water vapor as it can
Relative humidity— a measure of the amount of water vapor present compared to the amount that could be held at a specific temperature.

Sun’s ultraviolet radiation.

Exosphere
The last layer of the atmosphere Difficult to tell where it stops and space
begins Very few atoms in this layer of the
atmosphere

Atmosphere
Exosphere--The last layer of the atmosphere, Difficult to tell where it stops and space begins, Very few atoms in this layer of the atmosphere
Thermosphere-- The air is really thin that high up. The temperature changes with the solar activity. If the sun is active,
temperatures in the thermosphere can get up to 1,500°C or higher!
Mesosphere--The temperature drops when you go higher, like it does in the troposphere. Coldest part of the atmosphere
Stratosphere--from 10 km to 50 km above Earth’s surface, this layer contains ozone that absorbs much of the
Sun’s ultraviolet radiation.

Ionosphere
Within the mesosphere and thermosphere is a layer of electrically charged particles. This layer allows radio waves to travel across the country to another city.
