The document describes the four main layers of Earth's atmosphere - the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere. It provides details on the temperature and characteristics of each layer, including how temperature varies with altitude and key phenomena that occur within each atmospheric region. The troposphere extends to around 9 miles high and contains most of the atmosphere. Above this is the stratosphere, where temperature increases with altitude due to ozone absorption of solar radiation. Higher up are the mesosphere, where temperature decreases, and the thermosphere, where temperature again increases with the beautiful colors of the northern lights occurring in this layer.
The earth is the only known planet, on which life exists. The present condition and properties of earth’s atmosphere are one of the main reasons for earth to support life. The atmosphere is the blanket of gases or vapours that surrounds the earth, and held together by the force of gravity.
This presentation talks about our atmosphere, its composition, the layers of the atmosphere, effects of EM radiation, EM spectrum, Visible spectrum, factors affecting our atmosphere, terrestrial long wave flux and how earth's radiation release and income gets balanced in brief, the sources from which the information has been taken is mentioned in the end of the presentation.

its a small view of layers of atmosphere! maximum every person have to know this type of information etiher they're engineer, doctor or accountant! it's a basic for our lives!
This presentation is intended for people who are studying English as a second language. I has flashcards that can be used to review prepositions of time.
This was my presentation for my grand demonstration teaching. If you want to see my lesson plan for this topic just click the link. http://www.slideshare.net/ubuntu0125/detailed-lesson-plan-earths-atmosphere
Earth's atmosphere is a thin layer of gases that hover above our planet's surface. The atmosphere provides us with oxygen to breathe, shelters us from solar UV radiation, and warms Earth's surface via the greenhouse effect.
Atmosphere is the blanket of air that surrounds the earth and the composition of the Atmosphere is 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen 0.9% argon and 0.1% other gases. Earth has 6 layers of Atmosphere around it to protect us from harmful gases & maintain the suitable temperature for the life on the earth .The layers are Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere , Thermosphere , Exosphere and Ionosphere.
2. Onions have layers. Ogres have
layers.
• The Earth’s
atmosphere has
LAYERS!
• Earth’s
atmosphere is
made up of
layers that have
distinct
characteristics.
3. These layers are the…
• troposphere,
• the stratosphere,
• the mesosphere,
• and the thermosphere.
4. Let’s find out where these layers
are located in relation to the
Earth’s surface and how they
are affected by temperature.
6. Troposphere
• Most of the
air that
makes up
the
atmosphere
is found in
the
troposphere.
7. Troposphere
• It extends to about
14 kilometers
(around 9 miles)
above the Earth
• and is where
virtually all weather
takes place.
8. Troposphere
• As you move up
into the
troposphere the
temperature
decreases.
• At the top of this
layer the air
temperature is
about - 60°C
(-76° F).
10. Stratosphere
• As you move up
into the
stratosphere the
air temperature
actually
increases.
11. Stratosphere
• This occurs because
of ozone.
• Ozone is a gas that
absorbs solar
radiation and releases
it as heat.
• The stratospheric or
"good" ozone protects
life on Earth from the
sun's harmful
ultraviolet (UV) rays.
15. Mesosphere
• As you move up into
the mesosphere, the
air temperature
decreases.
• Temperatures at the
top of this layer can
drop to -90°C
(- 130°F ).
18. Thermosphere
• It begins at 80
km (50 miles)
above the Earth
and extends
outward into
space.
• Sometimes the
thermosphere
and exosphere
are listed as
separate
layers.
19. Thermosphere
• The higher you move
in this layer, the
higher the
temperature.
• Temperatures in the
thermosphere can
reach 1,800°C
(3,300°F)!
23. Thermosphere
• The ionosphere is found at the bottom of
the thermosphere (close to the
mesosphere).
• The exosphere is located at the top of the
thermosphere.
29. • The Earth’s Atmosphere: Atmospheric Layers
• Earth’s atmosphere is made up of layers that have distinct characteristics. These layers are the
troposphere, the stratosphere, the mesosphere, and the thermosphere. Let’s find out where
these layers are located in relation to the Earth’s surface and how they are affected by
temperature.
• The troposphere is the lowest layer of the atmosphere that lies next to the Earth’s surface. Most
of the air that makes up the atmosphere is found in the troposphere. It extends to about 14
kilometers above the Earth and is where virtually all weather takes place. As you move up into
the troposphere the temperature decreases. At the top of this layer the air temperature is about -
60°C.
• The stratosphere begins at the top of the troposphere and extends to about 50 kilometers above
the surface of the Earth. As you move up into the stratosphere the air temperature actually
increases. This occurs because of ozone. Ozone is a gas that absorbs solar radiation and
releases it as heat.
• The mesosphere begins at about 50 kilometers above the Earth’s surface and extends to 80
kilometers. As you move up into the mesosphere, the air temperature decreases. Temperatures
at the top of this layer can drop to -90°C. Interestingly, this layer also protects the Earth.
Meteoroids entering Earth’s atmosphere usually burn up in the mesosphere.
• The thermosphere is the outermost layer of the Earth’s atmosphere. It begins at 80 kilometers
above the Earth and extends outward into space. The higher you move in this layer, the higher
the temperature. Temperatures in the thermosphere can reach 1,800°C! The beautiful colors of
the aurora borealis or northern lights occur in this atmospheric layer. This is also where the
space shuttle orbits the Earth!
