Exosphere- The outermost region of a planet’s atmosphere. Ionosphere- The layer of the earth’s atmosphere that contains a high concentration of ions and free electrons and is able to reflect radio waves. It lies above the mesosphere and extends from about 50 to 600 miles (80 to 1‚000 km) above the earth’s surface. Thermosphere- The region of the atmosphere above the mesosphere and below the height at which the atmosphere ceases to have the properties of a continuous medium. The thermosphere is

1. Describe and give examples of the various ways that heat can be transported in the atmosphere. In the atmosphere‚ heat is transferred by conduction‚ convection‚ and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat from molecule to molecule. An example of conduction would be burning your hand after touching a hot stove. Convection is the transfer of heat by the mass movement of fluid. A good example of convection is actually a microwave oven. Radiation is the heat transfer that travels in the form

The greenhouse effect is an effect on the atmosphere as a result of the presence of a certain gases called greenhouse gases which are made up of carbon dioxide‚ chlorofluorocarbons‚ methane‚ nitrous oxide‚ low-level ozone and water vapour. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are similar to the greenhouse glass panes which trap the heat and warm the greenhouse. When the greenhouse effect occurs‚ sunlight enters the Earth’s atmosphere and while some solar radiation is reflected back to space
