    The document summarizes key aspects of Earth's atmosphere. It describes weather as short-term patterns of temperature and moisture, while climate refers to longer-term patterns over many years in a specific area. It then discusses the roles of the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere. The troposphere provides breathable air and allows for weather. The stratosphere contains the protective ozone layer. The mesosphere destroys most meteors and asteroids. The uppermost thermosphere is heated and contains glowing electrically charged particles that cause the northern and southern lights.

    So what is weather?

    weather is

    weather - is Short-lived and local patterns of temperature and moisture

    - the condition of the air, or the atmosphere on our planet


    - min. by min. changes in the atmosphere, it constally changing

    Climate- is what the weather is look like over a long period of time
    in a specific area.

    climate is long-term patterns of temperature and precipitation.

    Atmospheric aerosols play important roles in the Earth's energy budget and in
    producing rain.

    What is troposphere and its role?

    The troposphere provides oxygen that we can breathe, keeps Earth at a livable
    temperature,
    and allows for weather to occur, making it a very important part of the atmosphere.

    The movement of air in the troposphere

    The troposphere, the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere, is heated from below.

    The troposphere is warmest at the bottom near Earth's surface. The troposphere is
    coldest at its top,
    where it meets up with the layer above (the stratosphere) at a boundary region
    called the tropopause.

    What is stratosphere and its function?

    The stratosphere is where you'll find the very important ozone layer.
    The ozone layer helps protect us from ultraviolet radiation (UV) from the sun.

    In fact,the ozone layer absorbs most of the UV radiation the sun sends to us.
    Life as we know it wouldn't be possible without this layer of protection.

    Mesosphere the protective layer of the earth because it destroys most of the
    meteors and
    asteroids before they reach the earth's surface.

    the last one, is the most busy layer which is the Thermosphere
    The thermosphere (heated layer) begins at about 80 km.
    It is a region of highly ionized (electrically charged) gases,
    heated by a steady flow of high-energy solar and cosmic radiation.
    In the lower part of the thermosphere, intensepulses of high-energy
    radiation cause electrically charged particles (ions) to glow.
    We know this phenomenon as the aurora borealis and aurora australis,
    or northern and southern lights.

    and thats it, thank you for listening.
