1 Chapter 17 The Atmosphere Composition of the Atmosphere 78% - Nitrogen 21% - Oxygen 1% - Argon, CO 2, etc.

2 Water Cycle Evaporation & transpiration  Condensation  precipitation Water is neither created nor destroyed

5 Photosynthesis Respiration Plants! Take in CO 2, Water and sunlight to release O 2 Mammals!Take in O 2, water and food to release CO 2

6 17.2 Movement of Heat in the Atmosphere Conduction Convection Radiation Direct contact Currents Transfer of heat through visible light (SUN!!!)

7 TemperatureThe measure of HEAT in the atmosphere

8 Structure of the Atmosphere Troposphere Stratosphere Mesosphere Thermosphere CFC’s are chlorofluorocarbons that EAT ozone! Where all weather occurs; where we live O 3 ….Ozone layer (protects us from UV light) CFC’s destroy Ozone! 3 rd layer Magnetic field (ionosphere) – Auroras!
