About the atmosphere notes
GoConqr OriginalWhat the atmosphere notes cover
The notes offer different starting points for this unit. Earth's Atmosphere begins with the gases of the earliest atmosphere. Northern Lights looks at the particles involved in the lights and their colours. Other notes describe the atmosphere's composition and layers.
Reading and revising
Start with Earth's Atmosphere if you want to read about early gases. For a focus on structure, choose the notes on atmospheric layers and zones. They set out what the layers contain and do.
As you read, make a short list of the terms you want to remember, then return to the note to check your descriptions. Science Test Study Guide also includes air pressure and the troposphere. When you want a visual overview or a way to check your recall, switch to a mind map or quiz on the unit page. Choose a note that fits the topic you are studying.
Frequently asked questions
Which note should I start with?
Start with Earth's Atmosphere if you are studying the earliest atmosphere and its gases. If your focus is the structure of the atmosphere, try the notes on atmospheric layers and zones instead. Science Test Study Guide is another option for reading about air pressure and the troposphere.
Are these notes free to use?
Yes. Every note listed here is free to open and study without an account. The resources were made by GoConqr users, rather than by GoConqr. A free account also lets you save quiz scores and make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.
Who are these notes for?
The page is mainly for school students revising topics such as atmospheric layers and early gases, and for teachers looking for material to use in lessons. There is also a little university-level material. Choose a note that matches the topic and level you are studying or teaching.
