Paul Kim Gr 8 Nelson Mandela

What is the atmosphere? -Atmosphere is a layer of gases surrounding a planet -Atmosphere is very important to living things latterdaylearning.org/atmosphere-space/
3
Structure of Earth’s atmosphere
The atmosphere has 4 layers: the troposphere that we live in near the surface of the earth; and the stratosphere that houses the ozone layer; and the mesosphere, a colder and lower density layer with about 0.1% of the atmosphere; and the thermosphere, the top layer, where the air is hot but very thin. Why we have know about this? The structure of the atmosphere dictates the way the atmosphere behaves and controls how weather develops near the surface of the earth.

-closest to the Earth's surface,
TROPOSPHERE -1st layer -closest to the Earth's surface, -extending up to about km above -airplane -Jetstream in between troposphere (Stra) photo.uni-plovdiv.net/Mirror+World/lz1ymv_At-the-first-glance/Out_of_the_Troposphere.jpg.html

STRATOSPHERE -2nd layer -15 to 50 km above -Warmer at the top than the
bottom. sci-news.com/othersciences/geophysics/science-water-vapor-stratosphere-climate-earth html
7
-50 to 80 km above the Earth's surface
MESOSPHERE -3rd layer -50 to 80 km above the Earth's surface -the mesosphere is a cold layer -where they burn up, leaving fiery trails in the night sky. natickhighwebdesign.com/marissa/mesosphere.html

-80 km above the Earth‘ surface
THERMOSPHERE -4th layer -80 km above the Earth‘ surface -receive extraordinary large amounts of energy from the Sun. scied.ucar.edu/shortcontent/thermosphere-overview

exosphere -5th layer -exosphere is extremely thin. -And The layer directly below the exosphere is the thermosphere. imgur.com/gallery/cikKubZ
