  1. Earth Sun and Star Connection

  2. Atmosphere Oxygen Nitrogen CNO cycle in stars Living Organism Hydrogen Carbon Oxygen Nitrogen CNO cycle in stars The Elements of the Earth are Made in Stars

  3. Earth Rocks and Soil Carbon Oxygen Silicon Sodium Potassium Magnesium Calcium Aluminum Iron Nuclear processes in larger stars The Elements of the Earth are Made in Stars

  4. SeasonsSun’s Vertical Rays • Summer Solstice- Tropic of Cancer • Autumnal and Vernal Equinox- Equator • Winter Solstice- Tropic of Capricorn • Location of the Sun’s vertical rays results in unequal heating and cooling

  5. Layers of the Atmosphere • The Greenhouse Effect • Solar energy heats the Earth’s surface • Infrared radiation is reradiated from the Earth’s surface • The Earth’s atmosphere is heated by this radiation • The Earth’s has temperature layers based on this reradiation.

  6. The Water Cycle • Sun’s energy evaporates water • Water has a high specific heat • Water surfaces heat and cool more slowly that soil and rock surfaces • Evaporation cools surfaces • Condensation releases energy stored in water vapor

  7. Space Weather and the Earth’s Magnetosphere • Solar Wind • Earth’s Magnetic Field • Aurora • Hypothesis- may influence weather

  8. Planetary Wind Belts • Unequal Heating and cooling set up • Planetary Wind Belts • High and Low Pressure • Cold and warm fronts • Storms • Thunderstorms • Tornadoes • Hurricanes

  9. Thunderstorm

  10. Tornadoes

  11. Hurricanes

  12. Life Zones • Life cycle of the star • Distance from the star
