The Earth System
Earth is the third planet from the sun in our solar system. Earth orbits the sun in an elliptical (oval) path. Earth’s orbit is sometimes called the “Goldilocks zone.” Mercury and Venus travel too close to the sun to sustain life—they’re “too hot.” Planets beyond Earth travel too far from the sun—they’re “too cold.” But Earth is “just right.” (Note that there’s evidence that Mars—the Red Planet—once may have sustained microscopic life on its surface. However, conditions on the Red Planet no longer seem favorable.)
The term “Earth system” refers to the different processes and cycles that exist on the planet. All of these work together to sustain life. The four domains of the Earth system include the geosphere, the hydrosphere, the atmosphere, and the biosphere. Let’s quickly review each of these.
Layers of Earth

The geosphere refers to the solid portion of the planet. It includes the rocks and minerals that make up the continents as well as the ocean floor. It also includes structures within Earth, including the liquid mantle and the dense, solid, metallic core. Nonliving surface ground layers, such as desert sands and volcanic rock, are part of the geosphere.
The hydrosphere includes all the water on or near Earth’s surface. The oceans are the major component of the hydrosphere. They make up 97 percent of the Earth’s water. Glaciers and polar ice caps make up about 2 percent of the hydrosphere. Only about 1 percent of the hydrosphere is made up of the liquid freshwater found in ponds, streams, rivers, lakes, and underground water reservoirs (aquifers).
Aquifers are the main freshwater source in America’s “breadbasket” states of the Midwest and Great Plains. (“Breadbasket” states get their name from the volume of wheat, a primary ingredient in bread, grown there.) The hydrosphere extends several miles above the surface of the planet into the atmosphere, mainly in the form of water vapor.
Water vapor is water in its gaseous state. Precipitation is water released from the clouds. It may take the form of rain, freezing rain, sleet, snow, or hail. It’s part of the water cycle.
For more information on the hydrosphere, follow this link: What is the HYDROSPHERE?
The atmosphere is the planet’s blanket. It allows living beings on the planet to breathe. It also protects us from the unfriendly features of the universe, such as meteors, cosmic radiation, and the effects of solar flares.
The atmosphere is made up of a variety of layers, as follows:
Earth’s Atmosphere

· The troposphere is the densest part of the atmosphere. It starts at Earth’s surface and extends upward from about 5 miles (in the higher or lower latitudes) to 9 miles (over the equatorial regions). Most of our weather takes place here.
· The stratosphere extends from the troposphere upward about 31 miles. The ozone layer, which protects the planet from solar ultraviolet radiation, is located in this region.
· The mesosph.
The Earth is like a big team where different parts work together to make everything work well. There are four main parts: the air around us (atmosphere), the water all around (hydrosphere), the solid ground beneath our feet (lithosphere), and all living things (biosphere). Each part has its special job.
The air around us is important because we need it to breathe and live. The water, like oceans and rivers, is a big part too. The solid ground is what we walk on, and all the living things, from plants to animals, make up the biosphere.
These parts work together to make sure everything is balanced and that life can happen. Learning how these parts work together helps us understand how our planet works and changes. It's like a big puzzle, and each piece is important!
1. Atmosphere
The Earth's atmosphere is a complex and dynamic system that surrounds the planet. It is a mixture of gases that are held in place by the Earth's gravity. The atmosphere plays a crucial role in supporting life on Earth by providing the necessary gases for respiration, regulating temperature, and protecting the planet from harmful solar radiation.
2.Biosphere (Living Things)
The biosphere refers to the part of Earth where life exists. It includes the surface of the land, the ocean, the lower atmosphere, and the upper lithosphere. The biosphere is a complex and interconnected system that sustains and supports life.
.Hydrosphere (Water)
The hydrosphere refers to the total amount of water on Earth's surface, including oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, groundwater, and even the water vapor in the atmosphere. It is a critical component of the Earth system and plays a crucial role in supporting life and influencing climate.
4.Lithosphere (Land)
The lithosphere is the outermost shell of the Earth and is composed of the Earth's crust and the uppermost part of the mantle. It is one of the Earth's four major spheres, along with the hydrosphere (water), atmosphere (air), and biosphere (living organisms). The term "lithosphere" comes from the Greek words "lithos," meaning rock, and "sphaira," meaning sphere.
The structural components of an ecosystem consist of nonliving arena and the living organisms.
They are terms as Abiotic compounds and Biotic compounds.

2. What is a system?
A system has two distinguishing characteristics.
• SYNERGY
• EMERGENT PROPERTIES
3. • SYNERGY: It means that the whole is greater than
the sum of the parts. It means, is that when all of
the pieces of a system are put together, they are
more valuable than all of the pieces would be if
they were considered separately.
• EMERGENT PROPERTIES: They are properties that
emerge as a result of how the system works
together, or properties that do not exist without
the system. In other words, emergent properties
are characteristics that are unique to the system
as a whole.
4. In the past, scientists have studied the various
parts of the Earth. They have looked at botany
(how plants work), zoology (animals), geology
(rocks), and physics (forces), but few have
studied how all of these work together. Now we
are discovering that the Earth is much more
than a bunch of parts. It is a whole. The Earth is
a whole system that works together.
This means that there is an interconnection
between all of Earth’s living and non-living
parts.
8. Atmosphere
• An atmosphere is a layer of gases surrounding
a planet or other material body of
sufficient mass that is held in place by
the gravity of the body.
• It is more likely to be retained if the gravity is
high and the atmosphere's temperature is low.
9. Atmosphere of Earth is
mostly nitrogen, also
contains oxygen used by
most organisms for respiration and car
bon dioxide used by
plants, algae and cyanobacteria for ph
otosynthesis, also protects living
organisms from genetic damage
by solar ultraviolet radiation.

11. Hydrosphere
The hydrosphere in physical
geography describes the
combined mass of water found
on, under, and over the surface
of a planet.

14. Lithosphere
A lithosphere is the rigid, outermost
shell of a rocky planet. The outermost
shell of a rocky planet, the crust, is
defined on the basis of its chemistry
and mineralogy.
17. What’s the difference between
Geosphere and Lithosphere?
Geosphere is a term denoting the solid part of Earth
which is made mostly of rock.
The main divisions of the geosphere are the crust,
mantle, and core. The outer core is unusual in that
it is liquid and a part of Earth's interior.
The lithosphere (from the Greek for "rocky" sphere)
is the solid outermost shell of a rocky planet. On
the Earth, the lithosphere includes the crust and
the uppermost layer of the mantle (the upper
mantle or lower lithosphere) which is joined to the
crust.
18. Biosphere
The biosphere is the global sum of
all ecosystems. The biosphere is the
global ecological system integrating all
living beings and their relationships,
19. Some of the biomes on Earth include:
• Desert - very dry, either hot or cold
• Tundra - cool, treeless, and dry
• Chaparral or scrub - coastal area with hot, dry summers and mild, cool,
rainy winters
• Taiga or Coniferous Forest - cool and dry, with coniferous trees
• Temperate Deciduous Forest - cool and rainy, with deciduous trees
• Grassland - Windy, partly dry sea of grass with few trees, including
tropical savanna, prairie, steppe, pampas, etc.
• Mountain biomes: there are a lot of different mountainous biomes, from
grasslands at low altitudes, taiga (coniferous forests) below the treeline,
and alpine (the same as tundra)
• Temperate Rain Forest - cool and wet
• Tropical Rain Forest - warm and very wet
• Land Cave - cool and dark
• Wetlands - there are many types of wetlands, including swamps, marshes,
moors, bogs, fens, sloughs, etc.
• Freshwater Marsh - a wetland located near creeks, streams, rivers and
lakes
• Temperate ponds
• Marine (ocean or sea)

21. What is matter?
Matter is stuff. Anything that has mass and
volume (weighs something and takes up space)
is matter.
• MATTER CYCLES: Essentially all the matter on
Earth has been here since the Earth was
formed. It does not go away, and we do not
get new matter. Earth recycles.
