Karten in diesem Stapel (5)
- 1Describe the atmosphere1st layer of atmosphere
12km up
It has the planetary boundary layer
it's 10 kilometer thick
Has oxygen air, but unstable.
Also has Climate control, and weather control. - 2Describe the Stratosphere12-50km up
stable, and no weather
o-zone layer (Ozone layer, stabilizes solar radiation)
Has the Jet Stream - 3Describe the Mesosphere50-80km
(-90c)
protection from falling objects because of friction
noctilucent clouds - 4Describe the Thermosphereabove 80km
ionosphere(80-400km) (charged particles),
super thin, and moves the suns radiation rays to the north and south poles(auroras)
Solar energy turns into heat - 5Describe the Ozone layer,The ozone layer reduces the amount of solar radiation coming to the Earth.
the ozone = gaseous form of oxygen - less than 1/1000000 of the gases in the atmosphere, yet absorbs most of the ultraviolet radiation
The oxygen from the stromatolites gave the Earth the ozone layer
The ozone layer is made of oxygen, this layer protects the Earth
The ozone allowed for complex forms of life to survive
when oxygen left the ocean, it formed the ozone layer, which protected the earth from the harsh radiation from the sun”-Todaysmeet
Ozone has 3 matters of oxygen while the one we take in has 2
Protects from the UV radiation
There is a hole in the place of the ozone layer on top of antarctica
When CFCs go into the air it causes the ozone layer to decay
CFCs in refrigerators
