Layers of the Atmosphere The envelope of gas surrounding the Earth changes from the ground up. Five distinct layers have been identified using... • thermal characteristics (temperature changes)‚ • chemical composition‚ • movement‚ and • density. Each of the layers are bounded by "pauses" where the greatest changes in thermal characteristics‚ chemical composition‚ movement‚ and density occur. Troposphere The troposphere begins at the Earth’s surface and extends from 4 to 12 miles (6 to 20

Without our atmosphere‚ there would be no life on earth. Two gases make up the bulk of the earth’s atmosphere: nitrogen (78%)‚ and oxygen (21%). Argon‚ carbon dioxide and various trace gases make up the remainder. Scientists divided the atmosphere into four layers according to temperature: troposphere‚ stratosphere‚ mesosphere‚ and thermosphere. The temperature drops as we go up through the troposphere‚ but it rises as we move through the next layer‚ the stratosphere. The farther away from earth

With close reference to the extract‚ show how J.B. Priestley creates mood and atmosphere for an audience here.

I looked over at my cousin to see that his shirt had turned from a light gray to a dark gray and that his face was glistening in the rays of sun that had escaped from the hands of the three-story tall green giant. The valves in my pores had seemed to be open and showering my whole body. We walked a little more towards a cliff‚ which was like a rocky natural balcony. The moisturefilled air made it seem like

I chose Italy as my place. Since it was my first holiday abroad and that I really liked it. It felt like I was in the 7th heaven. I went in the upper part of Italy‚ in Veneto. On our 1st day‚ we turned round Treviso‚ which was the village our hotel was in. While we were walking‚ we saw a huge old castle‚ which was surrounded by a lake with cute ducks‚ quacking all day long. You can also admire‚ like we did‚ the stunning view of all the lakes‚ like Lake Garda‚ every time you turn your head.

Thornfield‚ is a place full of mysterious and eerie atmosphere‚ a place with both lighting and roses. When Jane Eyre just meets Mrs. Fairfax‚ the Thornfield gives the overall impression of the feeling of home. "snug‚ small room"‚ "cheerful fire"‚ "large cat sits demurely at old lady’s feet" form a harmonious and serene picture. Mrs. Fairfax is totally same as what Jane Eyre images‚ which gives a really comfortable and quiet atomsphere to Thornfield. When Jane Eyre walks to her room‚ a turning point

Describing a place The baroque castle is situated in a small village Moszna in a halfway between Krapkowice and Prudnik. The architectural construction came into being in the 17th century. Until 1900 the most remarkable part was built upon in the neo-gothic character. But also circa 1914‚ the neo-renaissance wing was attached. But what strikes me the most is that the edifice is surrounded by 200-hectare of mysterious park with its 300-year old oaks. What come first on your way are 4-metre high
