03 the four spheres
The document discusses the four primary spheres that make up planet Earth: the lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere. The lithosphere is the solid outer layer of the Earth and contains valuable resources. The hydrosphere is all the water on Earth, including oceans, lakes, ice and groundwater. The atmosphere is the layer of gases surrounding the Earth composed mainly of nitrogen, oxygen and other gases. It moderates temperatures and blocks solar radiation. The biosphere exists within the other spheres and is the zone where life can exist on Earth.

It describes the composition and layers of the geosphere, including the crust, mantle, and core. The crust consists of different rock types and divides into continental and oceanic plates. The mantle is the largest layer and flows due to temperature differences. The core has an outer liquid layer and inner solid layer with extreme heat and pressure. The atmosphere surrounds Earth and consists of nitrogen, oxygen and other gases. The hydrosphere includes all water on the planet across oceans, ice, underground, and vapor in the air. The biosphere encompasses all living things and organic matter on the planet.
4 earth sytem of the earth
The Earth is a complex system consisting of four major interacting spheres: the geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere. The geosphere includes the solid Earth and its interior. The hydrosphere contains all of Earth's water. The atmosphere is the gaseous envelope surrounding the planet. The biosphere comprises all living organisms and organic matter. These spheres constantly interact through biogeochemical cycles and energy exchanges. For example, volcanoes can emit gases into the atmosphere while damaging forests and human settlements.
The Amazing Earth
Earth is the third planet from the Sun and the largest of the four inner planets. It is mostly spherical and has one moon that orbits it counterclockwise about every 28 days. The Earth orbits the Sun in an elliptical orbit and is tilted at an axis of 23.5 degrees. Earth has a nitrogen-oxygen atmosphere that provides breathable air and protects the planet from temperature extremes and meteorites.

Non communicable diseases
Non-communicable diseases cannot be spread from person to person and some are chronic, meaning they are present continuously or intermittently over a long period. Multiple sclerosis is an example of a degenerative disease that causes breakdown in body cells, tissues, and organs as it progresses. Some congenital diseases are caused by heredity while others are caused by a mother's lifestyle choices during pregnancy. Heredity passes traits from parents to children like eye color or sickle cell anemia. Factors you cannot control include heredity, age, gender, and ethnicity while factors you can control involve diet, exercise, weight, sleep, stress management, and avoiding tobacco, alcohol and other drugs.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on Blockchain
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.

Three spheres of geology
- 1. Geology The study of the earth, how it was formed, and how it changes
- 3. Atmosphere • The blanket of air that surrounds the earth • 21% of the air is the oxygen we need • 78% is nitrogen • It protects us from harmful rays of the sun and meteors, while also trapping in heat to keep us warm
- 4. Hydrosphere • Includes all the water on the Earth • Oceans, rivers, lakes, and even moisture in the air • About 70% of Earth is covered with water
- 5. Lithosphere • The solid, rocky crust covering the entire planet. • All 7 continents plus the plates they sit on make up the lithosphere. • Only 30% of the Earth is land above sea level.
- 6. Biosphere • Made up of ALL living organisms found in: • Atmosphere • Hydrosphere • Lithosphere • Ecosphere (ecosystems)
- 7. How all of the “Spheres” interact
