atmosphere effectIt is frequently stated in textbooks and scholarly articles that the surface temperature of Earth is 33°C warmer than it would be without the atmosphere and that this difference is due to the greenhouse effect. This Forum shows that the atmosphere effect leads to warming of ...
The ocean covers more than 70% of the Earth’s surface. It produces at least half of the planet’s oxygen and absorbs around 30% of the carbon dioxide produced by humans. The sea is home to most of our biodiversity and 3 billion peop...

That "smart guy" was Svante Arrhenius, a Swedish scientist and eventual recipient of aNobel Prize in chemistry. Simply put, solar radiation hits Earth's surface and then bounces back toward the atmosphere as heat.Gasesin the atmosphere trap this heat, preventing it from escaping into the void ...
When a satellite or a rocket that is orbiting the earth photographs the planet, the picture is of the earth's surface, or crust. This is where we live and move, land and water. The highest points are the mountains and the lowest points are the ocean basi
Curiosity about how Earth compares to other planets and what occurs below its surface led Hauck to study and learn about the differences and similarities between the Earth and other planets. "Where we live is this really thin layer on top of an immense planet that's mostly beneath our feet,...
Focusing on the hydrosphere, it encompasses all of Earth’s water, which is crucial for life. This sphere includes surface water, such as rivers, lakes, and oceans; groundwater that saturates the soil and rock beneath our feet; ice and snow found in polar regions and mountain peaks; and ...
The bulges move with the rotation of the moon around the Earth. An observer on the Earth's surface as the bulge approaches will see the sea level rise and then fall after it is exceeded. This observed phenomenon is called a tide. When the sea level is minimum, it is called low tide...
The temperature on Mars is relatively low, averaging about minus 80 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 60 degrees Celsius).
While we only need three satellites to produce a location on earth’s surface, a fourth satellite is often used to validate the information from the other three. The fourth satellite also moves us into the third-dimension and allows us to calculate the altitude of a device. What are the th...
